Satin finish Fridge & Stainless Steel Appliances OK?
Hi everyone, my wife and I are completely remodeling our kitchen in
our Keys Vacation Home. We have two kids, 2 & 3 years old. We like the look of stainless steel but not the fingerprint marks. So we've been shopping for alternatives. Kitchenaid, Whirlpool Gold, Kenmore, and Samsung all make "Satin finished" refrigerators with black plastic handles which they claim give you the look and feel for Stainless Steel but no fingerprint marks. Here's my problem, they don't make dishwashers OR the oven of this material also. The Satin finish is not shiny and more gray looking. THe Stainless steel is more shiny and silver. Will it look weird to have a Satin fridge with other appliances in Stainless? One sales person said they did not like it, I should get EVERYTHING stainless, besides, they claim it's much better quality. This was the KitchenAid rep. Then the lady at Sears said it was no big deal. The Satin looks fine with the Stainless steel. Another option would be to put the fridge in Satin and the appliances in black. However, my tile is Mexican Saltillo (orangy), the wood cabines are very light almost ivory, and the countertop is Gallo Veneziano granite, so I'm not too sure how the black other appliances would look. My preference is to have the entire thing stainless steel, but I just don't want to be a slave to my refrigerator. Have any of you ever combines the Satin with the stainless? Does it look OK? Also, any preferences over KitchenAid, Whirlpool Gold, Kenmore, and Samsung? Thanks for your help! Carlos |

calberto wrote in message Have any of you ever combines the Satin with the stainless? Does it look OK? I've never seen them together to know. The dishwasher shouldn't be too much of a problem as you can usually get a 'panel kit' (which can be made of just about any material you like) to install on it. Also, any preferences over KitchenAid, Whirlpool Gold, Kenmore, Those are all likely made by the same manufacturer (Whirlpool) and should be basically the same. and Samsung? That brand may be imported from overseas or Mexico but I haven't heard too much about them (good or bad). Dan O. - Appliance411.com http://ng.Appliance411.com/?ref411=W...+refrigerators =Ð~~~~~~ |
