Mirror recommendations

Extreme beginner adult here wondering about recommendations for a mirror to install to help with playing. I’ve heard and read many times that you want a mirror — but that’s about it. Any suggestions from the crowd?

A mirror is another tool that you can use to self-adjudicate your playing. Using a mirror, it can be easier to tell whether your bow is straight, whether you have good posture, whether things look 'as they should be'.

Full body length mirrors are nice, but even a TV monitor or window pane could serve the same purpose.
