      Does anyone know if it’s suitable to have a smartmirror in a bathroom with a steamshower? Wasn’t sure if that might not be the best environment for the mirror. Thanks!

          @pedro ,

          This first-time post may look like an advert. It isn’t; it is something I saw months back that might be useful to avoid condensation. It isn’t the simplest of builds, though!

            Easy way to keep a mirror from steaming up is rub a bar of soap on the mirror then wipe it off…no steam ;)

              @cowboysdude Or, at a pinch, you could do that, I suppose!

              Difficult to make a 20 minute video out of it, but far less fuss.

                    Actually no, when I had a magic mirror in my bathroom it wasn`t steaming, but maybe it depends on how close the shower is to your mirror. I switched my shower to an old tub after it was refinished and still no problems with the mirror in the bathroom.
