Touchscreen Bathroom Mirror Adds Music to Your Morning Routine

by Caleb Johnson on June 8, 2009 at 08:39 AM


For all you bathroom American Idols, an Italian company has just the product to take your morning routine to the next level. As profiled in DVICE, Stocco's Maitre bathroom mirror connects to an MP3 player, plays music through a set of built-in speakers, and features touchscreen controls on its surface. That's right; this product helps you sing and groom yourself at the same time. It also features a clock, an internal or external light, a de-misting feature, and, oddly enough, a barometer.

While the design is sleek, modern, and innovative, we wonder how this product would fare in our bathrooms. The average bathroom can get fairly messy from time-to-time, what with toothpaste, soap, and hair products splattering on every surface. While the mirror might be able to hold up, it concerns us that our MP3 player would remain exposed to the elements.

Maybe we'll just stick with our iPod dock and our regular old mirror, whose only special function is to remind us of how much we've aged. [From: DVICE, via LikeCool]
