Bosch stainless steel with Kitchenaid stainless steel
Comments (1)I do not have any Kitchenaid appliances to compare it to but I can tell you that I have 2 Bosch 500 series wall ovens and I have had nothing but issues with the quality of the stainless since I got them. I just had a repairman out to my home for the 4th time with replacement doors and he even refused to install them when he saw the quality of the workmanship. I cannot recommend these appliances. The stainless is flimsy in my opinion....See MoreStainless Range hood to match Kitchenaid Oven Stainless Color?
Comments (1)Kitchen Aid Stainless Steel is 304 I think (food grade for range and cook tops etc. Sears Outlet carries KA vent hoods as well as others like Broan. You might find a nice price point there and if you keep the cfm of the vent hood under 400, for most municipalities and states you won't need make up air. Good luck.

Comments (47)This thread did not die because my google search uncovered it today. I have a 3 week old KitchenAid French door fridge (model no. KRFC302ESS) on which the painter managed to leave a small scratch. Stupidly, I used the rough side of a kitchen scrubber sponge (the rough side is plastic not steel or wire) to try to rub the scratch out. The scratch is gone and in its place is a 2" square RUB MARK that looks like hell and is visible from every angle and in every light. I called my dealer, salesperson, kitchen designer, installer and finally Kitchen Aid and the only thing I've found out is the only thing KitchenAid recommends is Affresh cleaner with a microfiber cloth. I've ordered some but doubt it will buff out the rub mark. The other option is to buy a new door ($537 and back-ordered). The second I buy that new door, I will scuff/dent/ruin it even worse in some other unintended way, so that is not an option. I'm going to put a decorative fridge magnet over it for now. My whole kitchen is brand new after 11 weeks of hell, so this rub mark just really tweaks me at present, but my aggravation will probably fade as time passes and I do worse things to other things in my brand new $$$ kitchen....See MoreRust on my stainless steel appliance
Comments (15)Not saying that Windex is bad... Just don't tell KitchenAid that you are using it. Below is the SS cleaning and care from the KitchenAid built in C&U Manual. Clean the exterior surfaces. Stainless steel panels: Wash stainless steel with a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. ■ To keep your stainless steel refrigerator looking like new and to remove minor scuffs or marks, it is suggested that you use the manufacturer’s approved Stainless Steel Cleaner and Polish. IMPORTANT: This cleaner is for Stainless Steel parts only! Do not allow the Stainless Steel Cleaner and Polish to come into contact with any plastic parts such as the trim pieces, dispenser covers or door gaskets. If unintentional contact does occur, clean plastic part with a sponge and mild detergent in warm water. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. To order the cleaner, see “Accessories.”...See Morejmbaker3
