“I bought this vanity about 2 years ago and I still love how it looks to this day! It’s very simple and classic and looks exactly how it’s pictured. The glass on top really makes the piece. It’s also lightweight and easy to move if you like to redecorate or just recently moved like me.
The only thing I had an issue with is the drawer – a lot of stuff got pushed to the back and I had to take everything out to get to it – bottom line, just keep your stuff minimal in the drawer and it will be more functional. It’s great for small spaces since it’s long and slim – you’ll love this piece!”

I have 2 of the Brimnes one for me and the other floats among the kids (boys and girls) and we love them! They are so multifunctional. If you buy a vertical laptop holder it will fit on the back so you can open and close the mirror without any trouble while storing the laptop and it is perfect for a desk
How neat! Glad to hear how useful they have been. Thanks for sharing with us!
