People have been speculating for years that stainless steel would be ousted from its position as the top kitchen appliance finish. And for years it has remained number one. While something is bound to replace it (eventually), it just hasn’t happened yet. Americans love their stainless steel dishwashers and blenders and coffee makers… and ranges and sinks and vent hoods… The Wall Street Journal has a great article speculating what the next trend will be. Basically, while manufacturers have tried to start the next hot trend by introducing new finishes, stainless has out-sold all of the new introductions in the last decade. It certainly doesn’t seem like stainless is going anywhere to me.
