[quote=Anonymous]If you're a trendsetter type with money to burn, you are probably past stainless by now and will choose something new and fabulous for your custom kitchen. For those of us in the mainstream, however, stainless is still the most popular look and probably will be for some time to come (since we are not the types who replace our appliances every other year). I think the stainless trend is connected to the increased interest in serious/gourmet home cooking--even though most people aren't actually doing it, we like the idea of professional-looking appliances, rather than the old thinking that the appliances had to blend in and disappear. My mom has one of those huge wood-fronted ones that matches the cabinets and to me it feels really dated, but 20 years ago when she got it it felt like the height of kitchen style. 20 years from now my kids will roll their eyes at my stainless appliances. But 5 years from now they will probably still be OK. Bottom line-- if you are thinking of selling your house anytime soon, and you're not in a price range to justify the latest/greatest high-end custom thing, you should most definitely do stainless.
