LED Medicine Cabinets: Front Lit vs. Side Lit vs. Interior Lit
Four LED Medicine Cabinets — Four Lighting Approaches
LED medicine cabinets combine mirror, storage, and integrated lighting in one unit. The lighting type determines how you see yourself, how you access stored items, and how the cabinet contributes to bathroom ambiance. There are 4 models across three lighting categories: Front-Lit, Front + Interior Lit (Dual-Lit), and Front + Interior + Side Lit (Trio-Lit).

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between front lit and interior lit?
Front lit illuminates the mirror surface for grooming. Interior lit lights the cabinet interior so you see stored items when the door opens. MC002 Dual-Lit offers both simultaneously — the front light stays on while you access the interior.
What is side lighting in a medicine cabinet?
Side lighting (MC001 Trio-Lit) adds LED strips on the cabinet sides that create a soft ambient halo glow around the mirror. This enhances bathroom atmosphere beyond the front and interior lighting.
Which LED medicine cabinet has the most power outlets?
MC002 Dual-Lit has 2 outlets (20A) plus 2 USB ports — the most of any model. MC010 has 2 outlets (15A) with no USB. MC001 and Round have no built-in outlets.
Does the MC001 Trio-Lit have Bluetooth?
Yes — the MC001 includes a Bluetooth clock that automatically syncs the time. It does not stream audio. This is exclusive to the MC001 model.
Do all LED medicine cabinets have anti-fog?
Yes — all four models include a fast-acting anti-fog defogger and smart memory that remembers your last color temperature and dimming settings.
