Does the mirror need to be plugged in?

Yes. The LED ring is powered by a cord, so the table needs to sit near an outlet. The mirror still rotates without power, but the lights won't work.

How much storage does it offer?

There is a single door compartment under the top. It fits bottles, brushes and small boxes, but not large organizers or a hairdryer.

Not very. Dust vacuums off, but makeup and spills can stain the fabric, so keep it away from open bottles and damp items.

It is lighter and easier to move, and the swivel LED mirror is a feature most wooden vanities lack. Wood is sturdier and wipes clean more easily.

The mirror rotates to change its angle, not its height. Plan on a stool or chair that puts your face level with the mirror.

Expect to attach the legs, the top and the mirror frame. A screwdriver is usually enough, and two people make fitting the mirror easier.
