Stainless steel is nonmagnetic, so if it's a stainless fridge, magnets

(Incidentally, many types of stainless *are* magnetic. Given the
popularity of magnets on fridges, you'd think some appliance
manufacturer would jump on that possibility.)


Was just going to point this out but don't have any data on whether
anybody uses it on appliances -- guess you take a magnet in your pocket
when go shopping and test.
