I have the stainless and if I had it do over I'd spend the extra and get chrome. The stainless scratches so easy that it seem if I’m just standing and looking at it, it scratches. Having is rebuffed is expensive and I would still have the same problem. Seriously thinking about scuffing it down a painting with some nice candy.
