Finding the perfect bathroom mirror

Finding the perfect bathroom mirror is a brilliant way of bringing new life to your bathroom, a new bathroom mirror will make a room appear larger and make it lighter.

There are a huge range of different types of bathroom mirrors, so it should be easy to find the perfect bathroom mirror to suit your taste, requirements and budget. It is also very important that the bathroom mirror you choose goes with the decor and style of the room.

Bathroom mirrorsare typically put in to three categories, these are:

• Fixed Mirrors, these are generally fitted into cabinets or walls. This type of bathroom mirror tends to be quite unstylish; however, if you have a fairly small bathroom this is a good option as it is a great space saver.

• Wall Hanging Mirrors are set against the bathroom wall. These are perfect if you want to get creative in your bathroom; they can be etched and also are available with the option of being illuminated. Wall Hanging Mirrors are suitable for any type of bathroom, but can work very well in bigger bathrooms as these mirrors can be used as a focal point or main feature.

• Moving Mirrors, are mounted against the wall and can be moved and pivoted. They are also called vanity mirrors or shaving mirrors; they tend to be smaller than normal mirrors and are usually used for shaving or applying make-up. Moving Mirrors usually come with lights fitted, illuminating mirrors. These mirrors are moveable for comfort and convenience.

These three types of mirrors also split down in to sub categories for an even wider choice for example the Duchy Tide Mirror is a standard traditional shaped mirror, but has fitted lights for illumination. This bathroom mirror would be perfect for any size bathroom and due to its conventional shape would be suitable for a modern or more traditional bathroom. Another benefit of the more traditional style bathroom mirrors are that they are quite inexpensive and it is easy to find one for almost any budget. Whereas the Farrara bathroom mirror meteora, is a very contemporary style and with its quirky shape and illuminating lights this mirror is very much more suited to a modern bathroom.

A Bathroom Mirror with illuminating lights is a huge benefit to any bathroom because they add light and warmth and also make it possible to avoid the need for extra light fittings to be installed. Bathroom mirrors with shaver sockets are a handy feature as it avoids the need for sockets around the basin area. Demister mirrors are a fantastic new way of preventing your mirror from becoming steamed up whilst using the shower or bath, demister pads are available separately if your bathroom mirror does not already have them installed. These type of bathroom mirrors are also quite economical as they only cost around 2-3p per week.
