Fog Free? Not For Long.
If you're looking for a mirror that stays fog-free forever, this isn't the mirror for you. If you're willing to treat it with shaving cream once a week, constantly pick it back up and re-suction it to the walls or put the neck back into the suction cup - then by all means, go for it. I'm giving this product 3 stars, keeping both experiences in mind.

Pros
Double-sided mirror, Flexible neck, Suction cupped, "Fog-free" (at least for a while)
Cons
Doesn't stay fog-free forever, Falls off the walls easily or out of the suction cup
The Sex in the Shower Shaving Mirror with Suction Cup may be that solution for those people who like to shave or tweeze in the shower. My main reason for wanting this product was that I couldn't always see if I was shaving the back of my legs completely. Sometimes it felt like I had shaved all the hair off, but later on during sex or on my night I would find a spot that I missed and it was totally embarrassing. I also really like to pluck my eyebrows in the shower because the steam causes the pores open up, making tweezing less painful.
The mirror has two sides. One has what I believe is a 5x magnification, and the other side is just a regular mirror. I hardly ever use the magnified side, simply because it is "too" magnified. It confuses me, especially when I'm plucking my eyebrows.
Unfortunately, this mirror isn't all that it's cracked up to be. "Fog-free" is something that you get with this mirror, but only for about two weeks. After that, you start to notice an odd residue on the mirror after showers and it doesn't go away. Well, unless you cover the mirror in shaving cream for 30 seconds and then wipe it off. This will keep your mirror fog-free for another week or so. Having to do this all the time takes the convenience out of using this mirror.
Another issue with this mirror is that it doesn't stay in the suction cup at some angles. The grip isn't good enough for all positions. I only recommend using this positioned to the side or straight up - never upside down. The mirror will fall right out and you'll be disappointed when you broke it! I haven't broken mine yet, but I've come very close. Thankfully, the neck of the mirror bends in some funky ways, so if you really need to see something upside down, you can probably manage by simply bending the neck downward.
After use, you want to take your mirror out of the shower in case the suction cup looses grip, both to the wall and to the neck of the mirror. I've waken up several mornings to find my mirror laying on the floor of the bath tub. It's a real pain to have to put it back up again and again, so I've actually taken it out and mounted it to our marble counter top in the bathroom. I use it to put on my makeup while my husband showers, since our large mirror is not fog-free... And I don't feel like cleaning the huge mirror with shaving cream each week! It's much easier to clean the small on like that.
I find that it works better the way I'm using it now. I can still enjoy the steam during his long 30-minute hot showers, tweeze my brows, or put on makeup, without worrying about breaking my mirror. It also needs to be treated with shaving cream a lot less than when it was actually in the shower.

Experience
My overall experience with this product for use in the shower... Well, it's very bad. I would give this mirror about two stars, if that. But my overall experience using it on the bathroom counter, in the bathroom but not in the shower, is great. I would give it four stars for that experience.
Follow-up commentary
1 day after original review
We've had this thing for months now, and although I HATE it as a bath/shower mirror, I've learned to love it as a makeup mirror on the bathroom counter. I think it could use some rethought as far as the design goes and the title of fog-free needs to be removed.

This isn't a double sided mirror, I'm confused as to why you wrote that as a pro...
