What size should a bathroom mirror be?

The size of a bathroom mirror should be proportional to the vanity or sink area and we should ensure it is not wider than the space it occupies. We should also consider to installing the mirror at eye level or slightly above for optimal functionality.

But if you force me to answer by inch or cm, my answer would be- common widths for bathroom mirrors range from 24 to 48 inches (61 to 122 cm) or even wider for larger vanities. Heights can vary depending on personal preferences and the height of the vanity, typically ranging from 30 to 40 inches (76 to 102 cm) above the countertop.
