My Flexible Mirror 10x Magnification Mirror

I bought this mirror as an alternative to a standing mirror. I live in a compact city apartment and my bathroom has literally no counter space. In theory, this is a great alternative to a standing mirror. IN THEORY. In practice, it was quite the opposite. Problem 1: The suction was awful. I couldn't get the suction cup to stay in place, no matter how I tried (cleaned surface, extra wet, not so wet, completely dry...you name it). Finally, I did manage to get the cup to stick on the mirror. Problem 2: The weight of the mirror is so heavy, it actually won't stand upright properly, while suctioned to the mirror. I tried bending the metal "flexible stand" (which isn't so flexible) in every direction to keep the mirror upright. If you are planning to suction this mirror and have it flexed out towards you, that won't work. It's simply too heavy. The only way I could position the mirror so it wouldn't flip or slide down was to wedge it up and against a wall. It's hard to explain but was definitely jerry-rigged. Problem 3: The construction is not very sturdy. I quickly noticed that the button and the mirror housing was made of flimsy cheap plastic. So cheap that the mirror would wiggle around inside the casing. But, I thought to myself, I want this to work. I'll make this work, especially since I finally had the suction cup stuck and the mirror wedged into a position that sort of worked for me. I figured it will be ok and then... Problem 4: One night I arose to such a clatter, I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter...well, it wasn't Santa Claus - it was my mirror. Yes, the suction failed and my mirror fell into the sink and smashed. Ironically, the fall did not break the mirror, only the entire casing, connection bracket, and the suction cup. Since I had already thrown out the packaging and it's been more than 30 days, I'm out of luck. I would not recommend this product. If you're looking for a flexible and high magnification mirror - keep searching. This isn't the one. I wanted this to work because it seemed perfect. But, alas, it was just a waste of money, time, and effort.
