A:Answer Hi there, and thanks for your interest in this slide-in range! We appreciate how important the appearance of your range is, and are happy to advise. The main difference between our fingerprint resistant and stainless steel products is that fingerprint resistant units don't require the use of a 'stainless steel cleaner' (such as Cerama Bryte). While we do recommend stainless steel approved cleaning products for this range, if you use such a product you should be able to keep the range looking just as flawless! Additionally, when we designed the fingerprint resistant finish we made it to blend well with our traditional stainless steel models. Fingerprint resistant may have a slightly more satin (less reflective) finish, but overall has excellent color harmony with stainless steel and should not clash in your kitchen. We hope this helps, and are confident this range would make a great addition to your home. Wishing you all the best! -Sarah@GEA
