I use painterâs tape to hold the grandsonsâ artwork on my stainless-steel-front fridge â it may not be pretty, but thatâs not the point now is it? (I can use magnets on the side, but thatâs for the boring coupons and bills.)
I donât understand the popularity of stainless steel. It DOES stain, it scratches, shows every fingerprint and marking, plus needs to be POLISHED to look clean.
Thatâs why I wanted one. No more crap on the fridge. But then I discovered you could get the next size up for the same $ if you stuck with white vinyl coated steel.
One of the reasons I did not get a stainless steel one. I miss the days when you could get them in pretty colorsâŠnot the 70âs colors, but like in the 50âs

Get with the times, Rat. Modern fridges are wi-fi enabled and you can display pictures on the built-in monitor.

UmâŠ. actually, magnets donât stick to some stainless steel, including most refrigerators.
Some will hold strong rare-earth magnets, but not ordinary fridge ones.
Â
All those plastic alphabet letters, and little sets of words that make poetry, will fall right off.
I found out when I googled stainless steel,
after dropping a teaspoon that my handy-dandy telescoping magnet refused to pick up.
Supposedly itâs the better kind thatâs non-magnetic, too.

I DO miss being able to put magnets on my fridge. It limits the souvenirs I can buy when i go on vacation. LOL

One of the sitcom families has a refrigerator with magnetic/chalkboard panels on the front, so you can write on it and stick magnets to it.

Refrigerator sales people need a magnetic personality. Thatâs the best I can come up with today.

Hot glue, if you want to go to that length. Semi-permanent and peels off easily.

The popularity of Stainless steel appliances seems to be waning,probably because they ,ironically, are harder to keep clean!

What I donât understand is why âfridgeâ is spelled with a âdâ and refrigerator is not.

Itâs not about staining, itâs about not rusting without treating with paint or porcelain.

I guess mine if different stainless steel, magnets stick to it fine. (Actually I wish they didnât, but donât tell my wife that.)

There are fridge magnets from Disneyland Paris, Scarborough, Blackpool, Cyprus and Amsterdam on our fridge.
Only the Paris and Scarborough ones are mine. The others are from relatives.

I have a relatively old, enameled fridge, and magnets stick to it just fine, though I try to restrict their numbers!
So, I will agree with Pig today: shame on you, Fridge Salesman! âTrying to up-sell Rat and Pig into a more expensive yet deficient product!

Seriously, whatâs the use of a fridge if you canât put magnets on it?
fredd13 about 7 years ago
Stuck to ours, we have
A) a small notepad, for shopping lists;
B) a neat holder with half-length pencils for use with A (a Tic Tacs container with a magnetic strip on the back)
C) a number of recipes that she-who-must-be-obeyed wants to keep somewhere to immediate hand
D) sundry âdecorativeâ magnets, grandchildren for the amusement of
E) a couple of quirky magnets of sentimental value.
Mostly practical, useful items, appropriately placed. Being able to take a magnet is a primary function of a fridge door.

Not guaranteed to be magnetic..

Wouldnât that mean that the fridge isnât actually stainless steel?
