Well, it's a Birthday gift for my wife, she has a few hairs on the face and that escrimait, poor wretch, with a small hand-held magnifying mirror (if portable, however, she had to to hold it all the time - :)) The principle of good growth, combined with the integrated light this mirror make it right was enjoyed and passed on. Construction inspires confidence, as well as its features are perfect. I agree with what has just been said about the light, without compromising power. It is very good to illuminate the "critical" :-) area, even in a room plunged into darkness. What is true, however, is that the positions "cold light" and "warm light" will be used to benefit little from that "daylight", which is perfect in all circumstances. It is also true that it imposes by its size, but ultimately not that much, considering the built-in light, quality construction (stainless steel is really nice), stability, and especially that has two usable side (x1 and x8), each with a separate lighting. What more? Really useful and great buy. Price and shipping Amazon above all suspicion, as usual ...
