I purchased this mirror to update a powder room. Purchased black sink fixtures, lights and other accessories. Sink vanity is 37 so I was excited this mirror could hang horizontally or vertically. Contractor put in lights then said mirror would not reflect at correct height if hung horizontally because frame is so large. (Short people would see reflection if hung for taller person and tall person opposite problem if hung for shorter person). Light fixture was 30 but I still asked if we could use vertically, he said light fixture had already been installed as high as possible. I blame his lack of planning in advance as the ceiling would definitely allowed for a higher light placement. I love the mirror and was very sad not to be able to use in rental property. My own house has no space for this look, and it is now too late to return it. I am sad all the way around
Plan ahead for lighting with this mirror
