Tips On Styling Black Stainless Steel Kitchen Appliances<\/h2>\n

Alexi here! Last time I wrote it was about Mast Bathroom Update<\/a> and it was so epic if you missed it!<\/span><\/p>\n

First off, you will not<\/em> believe what a difference new appliances make for a kitchen. And with some additional small updates, you can have yourself an entire new kitchen in no time.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"styling<\/p>\n

I know, look at that kitchen! I can hardly believe it belongs to me! But even more than that, is that these GE Adora black stainless steel appliances had an even <\/span>more<\/span><\/i> dramatic effect on my kitchen when you see the before photo from 2 years ago on my blog.<\/a> If you go take a peek, come right back here to read the review of these appliances! Do they scratch? Do they show fingerprints? Are they actually black? I\u2019ll answer all of these and more below.<\/span><\/p>\n

First thing\u2019s first, I was confident I would love my stainless steel appliances, but I love them even more than I thought I would. Why? Let\u2019s go through the appliances one at a time.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Gas Range<\/a>:<\/span><\/h3>\n

Wow. That\u2019s all I really need to say. I am obsessed with this GE Adora gas range<\/a>! I do a lot of quick cooking at my stove often for dinnertime, and this gas flame heats food up super quick! On top of that, it has the industry\u2019s largest non-stick griddle embedded in the middle and I love it so much! It\u2019s perfect for pancakes or eggs, and you can just lift it off to remove it for cleaning. I also researched that you can fit up to six grilled cheeses on it at a time; I will definitely have to try that! The last thing I should mention is that it\u2019s very durable and high-quality. I can tell that from just a couple weeks of use that it\u2019s holding up stronger than my past ranges have.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Microwave<\/a>:<\/span><\/h3>\n

The microwave<\/a> is everything you need. It\u2019s energy-efficient, extremely spacious, and it looks beautiful, too. Mine is installed directly above my range, which creates a beautiful focal point of sleek black stainless steel.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Dishwasher<\/a>:<\/span><\/h3>\n

\"styling<\/p>\n

It is technically taking up the same size as my last appliance, but somehow it feels massive. I know it\u2019s not bigger from the outside, but it is definitely more spacious on the inside. There is also a third drawer to clean things like knives, chopsticks, and spatulas, so that might help increase the feeling of more space, as well. Last thing I\u2019ll say, is that the dishwasher<\/a> has been run several times already, but it still looks brand new like it\u2019s never been used, not even a water spot!<\/span><\/p>\n

The Fridge<\/a>:<\/span><\/h3>\n

\"styling<\/span><\/p>\n

\"styling<\/span><\/p>\n

My favorite appliance of the whole room, my new Adora fridge!<\/a> I was really disliking my old fridge, it was extremely cramped, and it had so many areas that were a waste of space. Again, this fridge is so spacious! I swear it\u2019s so massive that it fits at least twice as much. The drawers are gigantic, which I love, the shelves are all adjustable, to accommodate your organization preferences. And my favorite part of all the appliances is this\u2026.AUTOFILL! The fridge has a feature to automatically fill your cup or glass with water! You just put the container under the spout, tap the autofill button, then you can walk away and it will stop at the perfect spot!<\/span><\/p>\n

The Final Reveal<\/span><\/h3>\n

Still have questions? These should answer them! <\/span><\/p>\n

Are they black?<\/p>\n

No, they are not straight black-colored. They are more of a very dark charcoal with varying materials and stunning grain. This dimension makes it easier to match other metals and other black items in your kitchen. Next, since they are metal, they are not scratch-proof. I have one minuscule scratch on the bottom lower corner of my fridge…but I nicked it with a razor blade when I was trying to clean something, so that\u2019s my fault. But other than that, I have zero scratches on any of my four new appliances!<\/span><\/p>\n

Lastly, smudges? <\/span><\/p>\n

The quick answer is yes, but not as much. Most likely you\u2019re used to typical stainless steel which shows every single smudge\/fingerprint and they\u2019re very hard to clean off! Since these Adora appliances are still stainless steel, it is not technically smudge-proof. However, it shows dramatically less fingerprint smudges than the normal stainless steel. They are engineered to be cleaned with just warm water and a microfiber cloth. That\u2019s easy! Just make sure you rub with the grain and not against it.<\/span><\/p>\n

In conclusion, overall, these appliances are absolutely killer. They are gorgeous to boot, they make my life easier, and they will be easier on my utilities! I highly recommend them to everyone, and if you want to see the behind the scenes of this kitchen update, head over to my Instagram<\/a> where you can also ask me your unanswered questions while you\u2019re there! Thanks again, The Home Depot!<\/span><\/p>\n
