plastic mirror vs. glass

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.
In addition to not being as reflective as a glass mirror, plastic scratches easily, making it even a worse choice over time. Other considerations can trump this problem, obviously.
The downside of a plastic mirror is that they are easy to scratch--you have to be careful cleaning them.
that should be good enough for this application
they will be smaller than that too
