Shaving mirrors

[JaseB]

Does anyone have any advice/recommendations on shaving mirrors. I have seen some that attach to the window directly, but wonder how good they are - do they stay put. Also seen some stuff about anti fog mirrors, do they really work? I am sure my missus has an idea of what will be going in the bathroom in the new house, but thought I might get a head start on her.

Any advice gratefully received.

cheers

I've been using one from Wilko's (£5) for the past couple of months. It is screwed into the bathroom window and extends out when in use. It stays put, no rust so far. You could pay £50 elsewhere for exactly the same thing.

I have a large heated/antifog mirror behind the sink told her was for her in the mornings when I bought it spot on really

We got an adhesive heater pad for the back of the bathroom mirror when we redecorated and it works really well wired into the lighting circuit. Sadly I can't remember what make but there is always google.

I have one the same as the Wilkos one that I got from Ikea for less than a fiver. It's screwed onto the wall next to a large square mirror above the sink. Neither steam up but the bathroom is well ventilated.

A good friend with the same initials as the Queen sent me this. I would recommend it as a no-nonsense mirror that looks the business. Soooo much cheaper than some of the shaving mirrors out there. I solve the steaming-up-while-showering problem by flinging an item of clothing over it before-hand. Usually pants.

I have this mirror from Ikea, works perfectly and cheap as. Regarding your anti-fog solution, I'll be brief(s), Y- you do this, doesn't it make for a shitty shave, razor skidding all over the place?

That cracks me up butt it's a bit cheeky - thong you very much for jockeying for the title of 'punmeister'.

I have one of those concertina type ones, now I come to think of it. Never use it though.

I bought mine as I thought the magnified side would be good for shaving. I mainly use it when straight shaving but in general the big mirror on the wall is more than adequate so the extending one doesn't get used much. If you don't have a mirror in place already the ikea one is the imho cheapest option but fit for purpose
