does anyone know how good they are at reflecting clearly

concerned that it may not be as clear as a glass mirror



I have plastic mirrors in both our showers. They are about 5 x 7,
enough to shave by. They are very adequate, about 95% as good as glass.


The downside of a plastic mirror is that they are easy to scratch--you
have to be careful cleaning them.
