I really like stainless steel and have slowly been replacing my kitchen appliances with stainless steel ones for the last decade. The style cannot fade because my refrigerator has not died yet! In all seriousness though, I think that smaller appliances will stay stainless steel longer than the larger ones, and that stainless steel in any instance will be reserved more for the kitchen (seeing that washers and dryers never really took to the trend). Also in my opinion, mixing stainless and white appliances can look great if done correctly; using lots of white accents in the room and my green walls absorbs my white fridge and dishwasher so they do not clash with my stainless stove and small appliances. I never liked the idea of hiding appliances behind cabinets, especially in larger homes with large kitchens, I think it would be unappealing the walk into a room full of cabinets and have nothing to break all of that up.

I just made the mistake of replacing all my appliances with stainless steal, and I agree. Although they look great, they are so hard to keep clean that it simply is not worth it. Just touch it, and it leaves finger prints. That never happened with my other appliances. Most stainless steall cleaning products I have tried leave streaks. There soooo many different and controdictary suggestions on the internet for cleaning them. I to this day cannot tell you whether windex is recommended or not. (but I can tell you it also leaves noticeable streaks). I think I’ve spent more time searching advice on this over the last couple of weeks than the total of all the time I spent actually cleaning during the first 52 years of my life. Believe me, this is a fad that won’t last. My next appliances DEFINITELY WILL NOT BE SS!!!!!

I am about to purchase a condo in North Miami and the kitchen will need a complete redo. My parents had a beautiful kitchen in the 1980′s with all white appliances, and now their new home has all white appliances. It always looks clean (my Mom is a clean freak) and the appliances are not trendy looking. I think white is classic and will always be fashionable.
Stainless steel will be another trend that will eventually fizzle. What is the next trend? I decided to do the kitchen in all white with white appliances. It is clean and timeless. To me it’s like a white canvas. I can pop it with various textures and colors that can be changed throughout the years. Thank you mom for inspiring me.

Stainless Steel has a cold, drab and boring look as if it blew right out of the arctic. Stainless Steel refrigerators remind me of the morgue like you see on TV. I personally cannot stand the color or the look. thanks

I HOPE they are on the way out! I absolutely despise the cold, industrial look they can give even the otherwise warmest, most welcoming kitchen. To me, the kitchen is the “heart” of the house, and I don’t want the “heart” of my home to be cold and clinical feeling. (Besides, who wants to wander out early in the morning, looking for nothing more than a cup of hot coffee, and get hit in the eye with all that glaring metal?)

In terms of white appliances, they, too, are clinical looking but at least, white appliances are still classic and will likely remain so. The problem with trends is that they come and go and when they’re gone, they look out of place. Classics are timeless and not subject to the whims of the next designer or money pusher.

very has them. Once EVERYONE can afford it and has put it in their homes, the trend starts to die. So, since now every middle class American wants or has SS, the trend will begin to die.

SS appliances will fade back out … right now they seem so popular because everyone (and I mean everyone) has them. Once EVERYONE can afford it and has put it in their homes, the trend starts to die. So, since now every middle class American wants or has SS, the trend will begin to die. Just like granite and concrete countertops and the bowl sinks in the bathroom … etc. (all of these houses will look just as dated as the laminite counters and vinyl flooring from the 80s/90s homes do now!). Don’t get me wrong – some people will always love these looks, but the vast majority of people just want whats hot.
