I Tried the $1,500 At Home Fitness Mirror For My Quarantine Workouts

Right now many of us are struggling with not just working from home, but also working out from home. One of the many gadgets that promise to help is the Mirror, a $1,500 mirror with a screen that projects a fitness trainer onto it.

When I saw the ad for the Mirror on TV, I ordered it instantly. It had a 30-day return policy, so I figured I would just send it back if it wasn’t worth it.

While a $40 monthly charge seems to be the standard for these home fitness products, I personally think it is pretty steep.

The Mirror comes with a heart rate monitor, exercise bands, and wall attachment. It looks really nice, even when turned off. And you can choose to lean it against a wall or attach it to the wall. Since I wasn’t sure if I was going to keep the Mirror, I leaned it up against a wall in the room where I have the most space to do workouts.
