Love the mirror! It was packed and shipped very well and arrived earlier than stated! The instructions include mounting hardware which is recommended to be used, which we did. We were so carefully measuring and mounting the hardware to the wall so it would be straight, we were surprised that the loops on the back of the mirror were actually not level at all so had to reset the hooks on the wall which was frustrating. Also, the silver mounting hook actually shows from the side of the mirror and I plan to paint it black so it blends into the shadows, but other than that, it's Perfect! Unfortunately the photo will only load sideways...sorry
