Kube Bath gives you three ways to finish the wall above a vanity: a mirrored medicine cabinet for storage, the SMUSSO framed mirror for style, and the LUMINO LED mirror for light. One point to clear up first: SMUSSO is a framed vanity mirror, not a medicine cabinet. Both our pages and kubebath.com list it that way. This guide compares all three using only the specs on our product pages. Browse more in Kube Bath accessories and more.

Kube mirrored medicine cabinets
If you need storage, this is the one to choose. Every Kube medicine cabinet page lists mirrors on the edges and inside, adjustable tempered glass shelves, integrated European soft-closing hardware, and either surface or recessed mounting. Sizes include the 15 inch, 20 inch, 24.6 inch and 30 inch for single vanities, and the 40 inch, 50 inch, 60 inch and 80 inch for wider and double vanities. Smaller sizes have one door, and the wider ones have two to four. For general tips, read how to choose the perfect medicine cabinet.
SMUSSO framed vanity mirror
SMUSSO is for looks. Our pages list a deep aluminum frame with rounded corners and 5mm low-iron, copper-free glass, which they say prevents edge-darkening over time. The brushed gold coating is described as moisture resistant. It comes in black or brushed gold in 24, 30, 36, 48, 60 and 70 inch sizes. The brushed gold version matches a gold Aqua Piazza shower. See how to build a Kube Bath shower.
LUMINO LED mirror
LUMINO is for light. Our pages list a lit acrylic shelf along the mirror, a hands-free sensor switch, three brightness levels, anti-fog, automatic shut-off after one hour, a frosted border and UL certification. The light is crisp white at 6000 to 6500K. It is hardwired on 110V, and the wattage goes up with size (36W on the 24 inch, 48W on the 48 inch). Sizes include 24, 29 (sold as 30), 36, 48, 60 and 70 inch. For more on lighted mirrors, see our bathroom mirror with lights guide.
Which one should you choose?
- Storage first: a Kube mirrored medicine cabinet. You can recess it to keep the depth to a minimum.
- Style and finish matching: SMUSSO, especially in brushed gold.
- Better lighting and no fog: LUMINO, if you can hardwire it.
Match the width to your vanity. A Bliss 24 works with the 24 inch options, and wider Bliss vanities work with the 48 inch and up. Our Bliss vanity guide lists the real widths.

FAQ
Is SMUSSO a medicine cabinet or a mirror?
Both our product pages and kubebath.com list SMUSSO as a framed vanity mirror, not a medicine cabinet. It has an aluminum frame with rounded corners and 5mm low-iron, copper-free glass, in black or brushed gold. Kube's storage option is the separate Kube mirrored medicine cabinet.
What does the LUMINO LED mirror include?
Our LUMINO pages list an integrated LED acrylic shelf, a hands-free sensor switch, three dimmable brightness levels, anti-fog, auto shut-off after one hour, a frosted border and UL certification. It is hardwired on 110V with a 6000 to 6500K colour temperature.
Can Kube medicine cabinets be recessed?
Yes. Our Kube mirrored medicine cabinet pages say they can be surface-mounted or recessed into the wall. They have mirrors inside and on the edges, adjustable tempered glass shelves and soft-closing doors, and they are listed 4.75 inches deep.
What sizes do SMUSSO and LUMINO come in?
SMUSSO is listed in 24, 30, 36, 48, 60 and 70 inch sizes. LUMINO is listed in 24, 29 (sold as the 30), 36, 48, 60 and 70 inch sizes. Kube medicine cabinets run from 15 inches up to the 80 inch model.
Does the LUMINO need an electrician?
The LUMINO pages list a hardwired connection on 110V, so plan for a licensed electrician and a box behind the mirror. SMUSSO and the medicine cabinets need no power.
