I recently moved and the hook is no longer useable since its lost its grip. What do I do now? Is the mirrow useless? 3M hooks dont keep the mirror up.

I had to move my hook and I just bought another double-sided foam stick pad from the hardware store and it's working fine. I think I needed to buy exterior or for moisture locations....

I'm in a rental and didn't want to stick anything to the tub. I use a locking suction cup hook and it holds just fine. Falls down once every 3-4 months but the mirror doesn't seem to mind.

You can buy hooks that attach by suction. Target, Walmart places like that carry them. Any household speciality store would have something like that.

There are 3M adhesive hooks made specifically for wet areas. I use one for my mine and it's held up flawlessly since I bought the mirror.

Contact the company directly. They are great to work with and should have some solutions for you.

Dear B. Slaughter, Thanks for your interest in our product. Your can hook it up or fix it with the 3M tape (it does not come with the package) Sincerely yours, Astra Depot

I used a socket, put my screw driver(with rubber handle so it gripped inside the socket) with an extension to be able to reach it....... Think it's a flaw in the design but a little ingenuity and you'll get it :) Duck tape and a broom handle anyone?

Sorry, wound up having friend set up the wall attachment because the clamp kept slipping and the toggle thingy broke off. I am able to adjust it anyway I prefer now. Don't know if anyone else had a slipping and breaking problem.

Older models did have hooks, newer ones do not. They removed the feature due to it contributing to issues with the glass breaking.

I have had no issues with the adhesive hook at all. It is about half a square foot to the bottom right of my shower head. So water doesn't spray on it but it definitely gets on it when I rinse the mirror to get the temp to adjust and defog.The only issue I have is its not reusable so you need to be sure of where you want it. I bought suction cups too to be able to move it sometimes. The suction cups I bought don't hold the mirror because of the condensation and temp change in the air. But thats my fault for thinking they would work. The hook is as good as a 3M adhesive hook for anywhere in the home. Reliable. I have had no issues with the adhesive hook at all.

I remember this happened to me, too. what I did was to pull out as far as I can then cut the tape off and snapped it in to replace the old one. It got to be a better way to handle it but I couldn't find instruction any about it so that how i did it.

I have bought 2 of these and have had the same problem on both. The mirror doesn't stay where you put it and the adjustable arm also wears out a doesn't stay where you put it. We have fixed it numerous times but it's only a temporary fix. Still broke..... I'm buying a different brand this time around. Maybe the zadro that has a different mechanism that hold the mirror in place will work better but I'm not taking the chance.

I replaced my a couple of months ago, I'm semi-handy fixing a lot of small stuff around the house. I'm small and in my late seventies, the only problem was holding the unit up in place while turning the locking ring. I no longer have the upper body strength to do it so I used a stack of books. Made sure all the connections were tight and have had so problems since. It clean and in good shape so I left the old badger mount in the sink. Took about forty min, but a lot of that was getting the books.

There was no trick that I know of. I don't have it with me or I would take a look. You may need to get replacement. I'm really happy with mine and I've tried quite a few.

I would suggest trying a craft store. I don't use the ones that come with the unit - big pain in the butt. I just bought the new suction cup mount listed on Amazon but haven't received it yet!

Make a custom bracket. We need more information in order to answer your question better. I have a large wood mirror that is being hung by a washer hook but it sounds like you have a different type of mirror.

if I have the right connector, it was flat white connection, with three flat contacts (pins) and with three wires coming out (red, white, black) the other side. I had a picture but can't copy to this posting. this may explain why the mirror only moves in the horizontal direction now. I tried to splice wires to make it move vertically but to no avail. Also, the mirror cracked while cleaning off at a gas station a couple of months ago. I don't think it is supported behind it too well.

I had the same thing happen, They said that the reflection device had moved or broken. It was expensive to repair.

I detached mine... and reattached it after deciding I did need it afterall. Its basically a long L hook that fits in a little slot

Sounds to me like your arrow hanger is not correct. I have 4 of them and they never slip out. Maybe there is a defect and it needs to be returned.

I would call the company, they are readily available by phone. Go to the WEB for their number. Also, I did tie each corner down with the supplied hooks and that made all the difference in its stabilty. We love ours!
