mounting bracket issue during manufacturing

Many reviews have pointed out difficulties with the mounting bracket. For the record its called a “French Cleat Hanger” for those didn’t get instructions in the box and could use some help from youtube to hang it. Im still going to refer to it as a bracket for simplicity. The foam pieces behind the bracket attached to the mirror are only there as spacers during manufacturing. Rest assured thats not the only thing holding the bracket to the mirror. There is also a line of mastic glue behind the b...

Installation is a Nightmare

This mirror looks nice but comes with a "French cleat" bracket and abysmal instructions. I had to take the mirror down, fill in holes, and re-install the bracket due to the incorrect measurements provided. Here are the issues I encountered: --Terrible Instructions: The instructions do very little to explain how to hang the mirror properly. --Incorrect Measurements: The instructions claim the cleat should be installed 6.4" from the top, which is inaccurate. I installed it based on this, only to...

Inexpensive round mirror- needs instructions

Once hung this mirror sits securly and close to the wall. I think it looks wonderful. There were no instructions with mine either. This is what I did: The mirror is 28 inches so i found my center point of 14 inches and marked my wall. With the mirror laying flat (face down) I inserted the wall bracket where it should sit on the mirror. I found there was something not letting it sit correctly and have to use a blade to scrape inside, some extra adhesive came out and I was able to get the mountin...

Could Not Get to Hang

I should have read the reviews first...I am very handy, have remodeled 2 x houses and needed a last minute mirror for my airbnb...I could not get this to clamp on to the wall bracket! My hat goes off to those who were able to accomplish this. I ended up scratching my newly painted wall quite badly as I dragged the mirror down the wall so many times trying to get it to catch onto the wall bracket. I even loosened the screws a little thinking that would give more of a gap behind the bracket bu...

Faulty Screws

We are pleased with the look and size of the mirror; however, we did run into a couple issues. We are less than impressed with the quality of the screws included for mounting. Both of the screw heads broke off making them unusable and forcing us to adjust where we hung the mirror. Fortunately, we discovered the weakness of the screws before we hung the mirror (while securing the mounting bracket), otherwise it could have quite possibly fallen off the wall, broken and hurt someone. After we mount...

Easy to hang sharp image and trendy design

Now includes directions, you basically just put 2 dry wall hangers (my first time, just drilled h I less with a 3/16 bit and tapped them in the wall see youtube) into the brace and slide it in took me maybe 10 minutes and I'm not handy. It doesnt tell you what to do with the sticky pads though so I didn't use them and seems reasonably sturdy. Looks nice and has a good cleae image, when I was looking at mirrors I saw a lot of branded mirrors that cost 3x as much with bad distortion and warping.

Really like this mirror but....

Simple nice quality mirror but no directions on how to hang it. Who needs directions on hanging a mirror? Evidently me. I only have a BS in Mechanical Engineering from an evidently overrated engineering school and I ended up scratching the back of the mirror and ruining the mirrored surface. I am trying to repair the scratches I put on hanging it but.... So, get the metal mount right against the wall. Upper lip out with space between the mount and the wall to receive the mount on the bac...

upside down back bracket

THe poor instructions are unclear. Best i can figure out is the mounting bar on the back of the mirror was installed upside down. There’s no way this mirror can latch onto the wall bracket. Upside down it grabs the bar. And installing the way the instructions say, well, it just won’t work. The instructions need to describe how the mirror bar is SUPPOSED to be installed and include how to reverse it if its upside diwn. Its attached by sticky tape and im not sure it will hold the bar once it...

Bad hanging brackets

The mirror has a track glued to it's back and a 6" metal clip that attaches to the wall with two screw holes. Screws with shields and 4 pieces of double sided stick up foam screws are included. There are no instructions! I used screws with my own sheet rock expanding shields, to install the wall bracket only to find that the bracket was so tight to the wall that the receiver on the back of the mirror would not slide over it. (Easily fixed with spacers not included) Even with this minor inconveni...

fools product

i was sceptical when i opened the package and saw two sided stickies to put up the mirror. Unfortunately i didn’t listen to my good sense. I also bought two of these mirrors. I put them up the way they should go and later went to bed. About 3:00 am i woke to a thud followed by a crash! About 15 min later another thud and another crash! They peeled right off the wall and shattered everywhere! Put two gouges in my countertop and two gouges in my newly laid flooring! Only a fool would use stickies ...
