Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Zadro Z500 Fogless Adjustable Magnification Mirror
Customer Review: Best Fogless Mirror I have ever owned
Summary: 5 Stars
I've gone through several fogless mirrors in the last 20 years and this one is simply the best. I owned one before made by Z fogless and could not find a replacement when it was broken. I had tried many other brands and found them to cloud up soon after I got them. The Z Fogless is the best shower mirror and the price beat all the competition including ebay.Customer Review: Didn't Work for Me - Without Modication, that is
Summary: 3 Stars
While I can't say that I have the cleanest shower stall in my home, it is certainly not the worst. Before I went about using the suction cups (they provide three, and they do _look_ like they would work well) on my wall's tile to hold the mirror up, I made sure to clean the space as best I could (a little tile cleaner, some water, made sure it was dry). So, I put the suction cups in place on the mirror and placed the mirror on my tile wall- making sure it press very firmly for a good fit. Everything seemed to be going well.
I left the mirror there and went about my business. About twenty minutes later as I am passing by, I hear a loud crash. I go in, and there on my shower floor is the mirror. To its credit, the thing did not show any damage at all after the 6+ foot drop (I am a tall guy). So, giving it the benefit of the doubt, I go ahead and double-check the tile surface and re-apply the mirror's suction cups (making sure those are clean too). Rinse and repeat, it falls again.
Well, I am not enough of a sucker to try a third time so long story short I went to OSH and bought the strongest adhesive tape they have. The mirror has remained up in my shower for about two weeks now (with the tape) and I actually really enjoy it. Unfortunately, I can't forget having to bother with those suction cups and buying about $5 worth of adhesive tape when I only had to use about 4 inches of it.
So, Pros: The mirror can be adjusted for various magnifications, it has holders for other items (I put my shaving razor and a pair of trimming scissors on it), it is small and so it doesn't get in the way, and sturdy (It held up without a scratch after falling 6 feet- twice). Also, like the name says, it doesn't fog up.
The Cons: Be prepared to find other means of keeping it stuck on your shower wall than what you're given.
Good luck.
Customer Review: Excellent Product
Summary: 4 Stars
Over the years I've been exposed to a rating scheme that I think is pretty good. Outstanding, Excellent, Satisfactory, Marginal or Unsatisfactory.
On this scale I'd rate this mirror an Excellent! It doesn't seem to stay quite as clear as I had hoped, but it is clear enough for close up in-the-shower shaving. That's why I wanted it. So far, excellent product.
Hope this helps!
Customer Review: Fogless? Not quite
Summary: 2 Stars
The mirror was in fact fogless for about 6 months, and I was satisfied. Now fogs immediately and is difficult to see in. I would have paid more for a product with a bit more longevity. Also feels flimsy, cheap.Customer Review: Fogs alot!

Zadro Z' Fogless Ultra Mirror - Z500 I used this for five years and it always fogged. i usually put a hot face cloth over it and it clears enough to finish shaving. So i purchased this new one hoping that it would work better....No way, this immediately fogs. So I am still using the hot cloths.
But original mirror held up very well in the shower for 5 years, I never had issues like dulling or mold.
I am still a huge fan of shaving in the shower, their is a better shave, and I don't leave water splattered all over the vanity.
