Hi all!
Let me introduce myself. My name is Denis and I’ve been a MagicMirror enthusiast like most of you since 2018.
Since then, I’ve been searching for the perfect mirror for my project. I’ve tried everything:
- two glasses with reflective foil between them - too heavy
- spy mirror - too dark
- a mirror that is offered here on the forum from a known member was my last try and it somehow met my expectations, except for the price
I feel that the price is quite steep for the enthusiasts and it is slowing down the adoption of this cool tech.
Since the mirror that I last used was broken during transit I used it as a proof of concept for few months and started looking for a cheaper alternative and I finally found it.
The properties of the mirror are:
- 4 mm thickness
- 60/40 reflectiveness/light pass-thru which in my opinion works perfectly if the mirror is positioned in a place with natural light, however, my mirror is in the bathroom with no natural light. I found it usable in dim light conditions and perfectly usable in well-lit artificial light conditions. I will post two 4K/60fps videos later.
- It is the same weight as the other well-recognized mirror offered here on the forum and it is perfect for frameless designs (as mine)
The price is 449 euro/sq. m. and it includes: (last price update 24.04.2023)
- 4 mm thick 2-way mirror
- Polished edges (no additional cost for polishing the edges)
- Laser cut foil pre-applied as per your design (no more additional cardboard or wood board to worry about when building your mirror)
- The mirror can be glued to a frame with any glue/silicon due to the pre-applied foil for achieving a borderless design
Shipping:
The shipping will be calculated on case per case basis so that you can get the best price. The other mirrors offered here on the forum have a flat shipping rate which is unfair as a mirror with size 30x30 has the same shipping costs as mirror 80x80 for example. I want to avoid that. All shipping costs will be fair and individual.
Another point:
The lead time is two weeks and there is no minimum order.
Here is a topic for my borderless setup: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/14048/borderless-bathroom-mirror?_=1632049363086 (please note that the mirror there is another one that is offered here on the forum, the one I am offering looks better in my opinion)
I will post videos of the mirror in action in poor lighting conditions (my bathroom with no natural light) later.
I am open to any questions and another perk for the first three orders is that I will cover 50% of the shipping costs. UPDATE 08-12-2021: I have already shipped 3 orders; therefore the perk is no longer valid, however, the shipping cost is very reasonable IMHO.
In order to keep the price low for you, I would also accept payment through Revolut or through SEPA wire transfer which should have zero cost to you in most EU states.
NOTE 1: There might be +/- 1 mm tolerance in the mirror size
NOTE 2: When sending the foil drawing, please point out from which side you are viewing the drawing - in front of the mirror or looking at it from the back (e.g. mirrored or not). That is very important especially for assymethrical shapes.
NOTE 3 (update 05.07.2023): The shipping company that I used to ship the mirrors got fully acquired by DPD and they changed their international shipping policy, now they won’t accept packages longer than 175 cm, therefore, the mirrors that I can ship cannot be over 165 cm due to the padding. I sent a 170 cm long mirror recently, however, I had to compromise the side padding, fortunately it arrived at the destination in one piece but it was a compromise that I don’t want to make anymore. I could use other companies, but their prices are x2 higher and I want to keep the cost to a minimum so more people can build their projects.
Update 24.04.2023:
I am updating the price since I haven’t done so in two years and the prices have soared, unfortunately. The new price is 449 euro/sq. m.
Update 13.07.2023: I have decided that all money that I make from these mirrors (not just the profit - ALL MONEY) will go to different donations. So far, I have donated to three different campaigns for children with cancer.
