Stainless Steel Backsplash
Comments (5)Never fear - if you love it, that's all that matters. It took 5 years to decide what I wanted (& could afford) for a backsplash & then it hit me: If I use copper on my bs, stainless will be perfect behind the stove. Materials for both are not overly expensive (I have a very small bs) & I can do the installation so overall cost is low & the look goes with anything (& looks like it cost a lot more than it did!). And it's timeless - & easy to care for. You're gonna love it. Hester...See MoreStainless steel backsplash with 4' granite backsplash? Need advi
Comments (1)It will look fine. If it bothers you then run the backsplash behind the range and have the stainless bent so that it follows the contours of the granite. I would be tempted to start the stainless above the granite, but either way is going to look fine....See Morestainless steel backsplash hard to keep looking good?
Comments (3)We've got it behind our 36" Bluestar and we also have a stainless steel fridge and dishwasher. In my experience, not only does the backsplash have a different finish from the fridge and d/w, the use of it is so different that the problems that can occur with the fridge and d/w are very different. We don't get any fingerprints on the backsplash, but occasional spatters that are very easily cleaned off. We do get some fingerprints on the fridge, but only when DH is cooking quickly and opens the doors with food/flour on his hands. That must have happened with our old fridge, except we didn't see it (yuck!). Same thing with the dishwasher -- the only fingerprints are from dirty hands and I like to see those so that I can clean them up. So, for me, stainless steel is not a problem at all and works well for behind the stove....See MoreStainless steel backsplash
