Wow! We were really impressed with the quality and workmanship of this mirror. Also, the price was excellent.
We recently stayed at the Westin Resort and Spa in Savannah, and they had this type mirror in their baths. My wife had to have one, or one like it, so, the Jerdon First Class 7X seemed to fill the bill.
After receiving the mirror and installing it on the wall (5 minutes), my wife liked it better than the one at Westin.
If you are boomers like we are, you really need one of these mirrors.
After a certain age you have additional hair growth on your face, ears, and nose that you did not have before. This mirror really exposes your new flaws. If you don't care about this new growth, or don't want to know don't buy this mirror. However, your friends and family will notice, and probably won't tell you.

They had one of these mirrors in a 5 star hotel that my husband and I stayed at and I fell in love with it! I HAD TO HAVE ONE OF MY OWN and thanks to Amazon I was able to find one. This is an EXCELLENT product. My husband installed it easily and I would never be without one again. One side is magnified and my eyebrows have never looked so good, lol, and eyelining is a breeze. Though he would never admit it, my husband uses also (trimming mustash, nose hairs (eewww), shaving, etc.)
Great product. Order one. You will not be dissapointed!!
Best Deals on Jerdon 8-Inch Two-Sided Swivel Wall Mount Mirror with 7x
I recently bought two wall mirrors, this swing-out unit, and a more expensive scissors-arm unit. The more expensive (about $110) unit is sturdy, hefty, and appears to be solid cast brass. This unit is lightweight, with thin, hollow tubes and a hollow stamped base. It doesn't look cheap, but it doesn't look or feel like a high-end item either. This is good for a guest or kids bathroom, but if you're upgrading your master bath, you really should look at a more expensive, solidly-built mirror.
As a side note, when installing a wall mirror, you should either screw it straight into a stud, or buy some serious wall anchors. By design, you're going to be moving and pulling on this thing a lot, and you need to have a good, firm attachment to the wall. Always throw away the little plastic anchors that ship with any product like this, they are useless and are guaranteed to fail, sooner if not later.
Honest reviews on Jerdon 8-Inch Two-Sided Swivel Wall Mount Mirror with 7x
Like most of the others, I realized this type of wall-mount mirror is a must-have after a stay in an upscale hotel. In the hotel, the mirror was mounted eye-level next to the the sink. The vanity lighting was adequate to illuminate my face, so there is no need for the lighted mirrors. It makes tweezing much less of a chore since you don't have to bend over or hold a mirror, and I've never applied mascara and eyeliner so beautifully before! Another added benefit is that you can swivel the mirror and use it in conjunction with your large bathroom mirror to see all angles of your face and rear which is great for checking your hair and how your clothes are fitting! To top it off, the mirror compactly folds away and doesn't add to the clutter on your vanity top!
I got the Jerdon mirror in and was immediately impressed by the weight of it. It doesn't feel cheaply made. Each swivel point has a screw slot on the underneath side, so you can tighten them if you ever need to, and you won't have to worry about the rods sagging over time. (The hotel mirror didn't have this type of adjustment and there was a lot of slop in the joints). I can't say how the finish will hold up over time since I've just gotten in it, but I am hopeful I won't have any issues. Even if I do, this mirror was inexpensive enough that I wouldn't hesistate to replace it.
Installation is a snap. There is a base plate you mount to the wall (a stud is preferred if you have one available). You then mount the mirror on top of the base plate and tighten down the screws you see on the left and right in the picture.
This mirror is really a must have for any bathroom! I can't believe I've gone so long without this simply luxury!

Just as the other reviews say, this mirror works wonderfully and is comparable in quality to similar mirrors in hotels like The Four Seasons. (I looked up the price of the brand at one hotel and it was 3 times as much as this mirror).
I can finally put on my makeup without my glasses on and see what I'm doing!
