My biggest problem with previous brands of fog free mirrors is that they fall off the wall...adhesives and suctions. How does this one hold up?

The mirror hangs on a hook. The hook is attached to the shower wall with strong adhesive tape. It has not fallen off yet because the mirror is so lightweight. Follow the instructions - clean the shower wall carefully with alcohol before mounting the hook.

Mine has stayed up since I purhcased it. Its quite light, so the adhesive should be able to hold it well.

I have had no issues with the adhesive hook at all. It is about half a square foot to the bottom right of my shower head. So water doesn't spray on it but it definitely gets on it when I rinse the mirror to get the temp to adjust and defog.The only issue I have is its not reusable so you need to be sure of where you want it. I bought suction cups too to be able to move it sometimes. The suction cups I bought don't hold the mirror because of the condensation and temp change in the air. But thats my fault for thinking they would work. The hook is as good as a 3M adhesive hook for anywhere in the home. Reliable. I have had no issues with the adhesive hook at all.

I purchased suction cup hooks from Wal-Mart (Pack of 2 for $2-3.00) to hold it. It haven't any issues with the hook holding it, it further allows me to put it on and take off as needed or on the road when I travel. Hope this helps.

Very well, I have it mounted on the porcelain tile just below and behind the head. Also the mirror is VERY light (not glass). The real secret to getting the adhesives to work is too dry the tile completely and rub a little alcohol on the area to be applied and press it on hard. They really need a clean dry surface to work well. Any dirt/debris, oils, even from your fingers and they fail prematurely. Hope that helps.

Yes it holds up. We've had no problem with it staying on the ceramic tile in the shower.

Yes! Mine has even mounted with just the adhesive for about 2 years and I haven't had a problem.

Honestly, i think people might not read the instructions/abuse the items they complain about. We have used the adhesive and we have no complaints. If it is mounted in place and not removed (using the suction cup) it will probably be just as strong us when you started. If you move it often, the suction cup and window needs to be cleaned. Any tiny object breaking the suction will make it seem defective.

Absolutely. There's nothing magical about the adhesive. If you can find a relatively smooth spot maybe an inch square you're fine. And if it doesn't stick well you can reapply with a different adhesive strip. The mirror is light plastic so it won't be taxed by its weight.

I have had the mirror for over one year now and am totally satisfied with it. I always turn the bathroom fan on when I shower, so I have never had a problem with fogging or rust. It is still perfect.

Yes, mine falls off as well. The suction cup has curled up around the edges and will not adhere well to our granite shower walls. It is very frustrating to hear a crash in the middle of the night. The squeegee does a great job, however, I need to find an alternative to this suction cup!

I don't know as I was looking specifically for a magnifying mirror. I can say that I've not had any issues with the suction. It does stay put and I'm constantly using the swivel base. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Good luck.

I used two of the 3M Command strips (medium duty) for this very reason. If you ever want to move it just pull down on the exposed ends of the strips and it releases cleanly. I spaced them apart on the back of the bracket with the tabs exposed and they don't show with the mirror in place. If you remove the mirror from the bracket the tabs are exposed and it's readily removable. And no worry about cleaning up silicone residue from the wall.

Hi Mary,I have mine on the mirror, I did take it off and tried it on the wall, it did stick, but I really can't tell you how long it would last.If you use some double sided tape, it might just stick longer. I am sure there is a way to make it stick. But, yes, it did stick to the wall.

Good Evening Clark-Thanks for the question. Our Fogless Mirror works great on marble. The smooth surface actually is one of the best surfaces to install this mirror on. My wifes parents have a marble shower wall and they have been enjoying their mirror for months. Be sure to use all the silicone when installing. Don't hesitate to email us if you have anymore questionsHave a great nightSteve ParisiPresidentToiletTree Products

I have mine on the windshield of my old pickup truck and I get a clear panoramic view behind me, to left and right of my truck bed, and the only time the suction cup failed to stick was when the truck sat in a parking lot, windows rolled up, no shade, at 80 plus degrees for 24 hours. I think it's great.

These come with one command adhesive strip, which you press and hold on the base, then press the base to a cleaned wall. My bathroom is VERY humid, and suction cups don't stick for more than say... 20-30 minutes. I now have 3 of these and they have not fallen once yet and they have been up through some bathroom renovation and stuff falling into them for over a month now.

I have a smooth shower wall, and the adhesive from the mirror failed after about a week. I cleaned the shower wall with alcohol per instructions. I found the mirror and the hook on the floor. I then used a 3m command strip hook and it is doing well so far.

I am the wrong person to ask, I am in a wheelchair, and therefore too low to make use of built in mirrors. As far as fogging, no, it has never, but it isn't regularly/ever seen sauna conditions. I have no idea as far as its rustibility. Mine is only 3-4 months since install, has been working well and I have no complaints.

This product worked fine, no problems. I had first used a 'regular' mirror adhesive from home depot to adhere 4 custom cut acrylic mirrors and ruined them all, had to reorder the mirrors. The mirror manufacturer itself recommended this product to me and I had no problems second time around when using this adhesive.

Hi J., We would suggest giving it a little rinse with warm water and rubbing your palm over it as it runs under water. **Additional Cleaning - The ongoing problem with *all* fogless shower mirrors is that they don't last forever, but the way to extend their lives longer is with the rinse and wipe technique above and also giving it a light wash with 50/50 vinegar and warm water. This will keep your Fogless Mirror fighting for your shaving freedom for a long time. Best Regards, Joyce Customer Relations Cassani Company

I haven't have it fallen off ever. I've been down some bumpy roads and still never fallen or moved. there are 2 suction cups that go on the original mirror then there are two clamps that fit over the original mirror so it's double secured.
