Why is it brushed stainless steel and not polished?

Just a guess, that it is easier to keep looking nice. The polished version requires more careful drying to remove water spots. We are very satisfied with the pot!

You'd have to ask the manufacturer for that answer. Best guess imho is that it is cheaper to make. Worked for me as my set is the brushed aluminum version.

Mine is brushed stainless. So it has a sheen to it, but not like chrome finishes. I throw my around in cleaning and it looks fine to me. Really enjoying it.

It's polished. Bought it for one of our Schwinns with chrome handle bars. Looks and works great.

It's a brushed finish. Looks very nice but you can't use harsh abrasives on it.

No. It is a brushed finish. I think aluminum or brushed steel. It does look like it is stainless steel.

The Frieling brushed finish does not have a shine finish. The finish is similar to brush finish found on appliances such as stoves & refrigerators. Scratches do not show easily and if they do, use very fine sandpaper following the circular brush finish established for the product to remove or conceal the scratches.

The interior is not teflon coated. It appears to be brushed stainless steel.

It is more of a brushed nickle or a satin finish. Not that shiny stainless look.

It is a brushed finish. It doesn't look like my stainless refrigerator (more grey and less reflective), but it looks pretty good!

It is a shinny chrome but not as shinny as a polished chrome typically found on faucets. it is not as dull as brushed chrome or nickel

Hi, The set I bought is all shiny, not seeing any brushed. This silverware is very sturdy and durable. Holds up in dishwasher. Heavier weight & great for everyday use or special occasions. I bought a set for 8 then turned around & bought another set for 4. The best I've used in 58 years of life. Hope this helps you. P.S. Well worth the money.

It's not a non stick finish and I don't believe it's stainless steel. I can't tell what it is - it is a brushed metal.

I just bought one for our Donut Shop. The exterior finish is a satiny brushed silver look, very close to a brushed stainless steel. Its not shiny like polished chrome, but it is shiny like brushed stainless steel.

The one I got has a polished finish. They may have other finish options, but I didn't see them.

Hi - no polished chrome is not the same as brushed nickel. Polished chrome has a very shiny finish while brushed nickel has a duller more matte silver finish. Hope that helps.

I don't know- no marking to that effect- however, the stainless material seems to be quite thick and sturdy and denting and scratching has not been an issue despite normal amount of daily abuse. Definitely does not feel flimsy like some low-end metal appliances. Outer surface is nice brushed satin, inner surface is polished.

I think it is polished. I bought it as a gift, and never really looked at it. The "boys in the shop" were delighted that they didn't have to step on bottle caps anymore.
