I recently tried out an anti-fog shower mirror, and I have to say it was quite disappointing. The main reason for getting an anti-fog mirror is to avoid fog while you are showering with hot water, but unfortunately, this one fogs up very easily. You wouldn’t even think it was built for antifog, because of how easy the mirror fogs up. The water does not have to be hot at all, therefore, defeating the whole purpose of having an anti-fog feature, making it frustrating to use, especially during a shower when you need a clear view.

Additionally, the holders for razors could be better. They don’t hold the razors in place that well; if they even slightly tapped, the razors fall off. It’s not practical and adds to the inconvenience. Overall, If you do not mind wiping the fog off the mirror multiple times while shaving then this mirror would do the trick, because it is useful, just has a false description.

This mirror works exactly like it’s supposed to, as long as you follow the directions for adding hot water. There is a hollow compartment behind the mirror and an opening along the top where you can fill it up with hot water. This prevents the mirror from fogging up because the mirror stays the same temperature as the room.

You can remove the mirror from its base to fill and empty the water, or you can leave it on the base to fill and empty the water because the mirror can be swiveled completely upside down. The base, however, stays permanently affixed to the wall.

I saw other reviews talking about how the adhesive is not very strong. As my shower walls are very flat and made of plastic, it seems to be stuck on there pretty well. I do not know how well the adhesive would stick to tile or other shower wall materials. I did make sure I cleaned the wall with alcohol to make sure the adhesive could have its best chance of sticking.

Please see the attached pictures and videos:

1. Video of the hot water filling up the hollow space behind the mirror and of the mirror being rotated upside down to drain the water in between uses

(I leave the mirror attached to the base and upside down after draining to make sure standing water doesn’t build up)

2. Top back view of the mirror (you can see the hollow space behind the mirror)

3. Photo where you can see the mirror “as is” with no water in it. It’s fully fogged up and you can’t even see the pink razor in the reflection.

4. Top front view of the mirror (where the water goes)

5. This picture shows the mirror after being filled with water and remaining fog-free

(it’s hard to see, but you can tell that the shower curtain in the background is still foggy versus the mirror where you can see the pink razor clearly)

Hope this review helps!

So far one of the best I’ve purchased on Amazon. You have to put warm/hot water in it, and after that it stays clear for the entire shower. I have a tiled shower and the 3m patch went on without issue and is still holding strong after a few months. The little squeegee that comes with it is great as well. A little expensive but worth the money in my opinion as I got tired of buying the cheaper ones that don’t work.

I was very close to being another one of those reviewers leaving a one or two star review at best, complaining about how it’s not a fog-less mirror. I used it a couple times. The mirror is clear and a good size and the adhesive seems strong. But both times it started fogging up almost immediately.

Thankfully I have a wife who wields the ability to instinctively read instructions thoroughly – a power that has always been out of my reach. She pointed out there are three very small cylinders inside the mirror housing, behind the mirror, and that you are supposed to fill them with hot water at the beginning of your shower. This heats the mirror to at least the same temperature as the shower, which prevents it from fogging up.

I tried it on my third attempt, and made it a good 10-12 minutes into my shower before I saw a bit of fog appearing. The last time, I filled it with hot water, let it sit about 15 seconds, emptied it, and filled it again, to make sure the water in the mirror housing was as hot as possible. And it worked perfectly through the entire 20 minute shower.

I know that might seem like a bit of an annoyance, filling it with a bit of hot water. But the results are so good, it’ll feel worth it. This is one of the best Amazon purchases I have made in years.

Be sure to clean your wall and let it dry well before applying. Easy to install. Love the look of it. Full the mirror with hot water and no fog. Performs as expected. Comes with a squeegee piece that fits in the mirror so you don’t lose it. Holds 2 razors with ease. Not too heavy or bulky.

Se supone que el pegamento 3M incluido es de alta duración, pero a mi me duro pocas semanas antes de que se despegara por primera vez. A partir de ahi tengo que retirar el espejo cada vez que lo uso, si no se cae a las pocas horas.
