New mirrored furniture bought from glasshouseimports who gave me some cleaning tips but perhaps you have been passed some down from generation to generation since i find vinegar and paper useless... sorry mum

You mean you work for them/own them whatever.
Yawn.
As you were.

i have too much to do already to even consider buying mirrored furniture and quite how one would keep it looking presentable with children baffles me- perhaps locking it in a storage unit would keep it looking good with very little effort Grin

if however you are serious then i apologise, i have no idea, a microfibre e-cloth??

I love the look of it but it wouldnt last 2 mins in this house before it was covered in jam, crayon, orange juice, biscuits, felt tip..the list goes on!

yikes, i had no idea mirrored furniture was so reviled here! sorry ladies, my little boy (only child) never touches it as he's too busy with his toys. Have tried a microfibre cloth (thanks!) and blue one is AMAZING... have also tried persil washing up liquid as recommended by someone else and is marvellous.

Not keen on mirrored furniture at all. And even less keen on the gushy website.

i guess if you're not a fan you're not a fan it's a little like MARMITE - personally I love it! :O

Prudence tell me you are not (from website) one of the
"BA (Hons) graduates in Design & Art History (who) like to think we have an eye for excellent design lines which are either available on the High St or not "
