is this a real stainless steel front or the "stainless look"

Its brushed metal and a fridge magnet barely sticks, so it slides down. Maybe a thin stainless steel layer?The same magnet sticks to the sides very well.

Appears to stainless steel look - smooth to the touch and magnets to adhere.

It's real metal. There is a sponge-like washer under the metal top that helps create a water tight seal, and the bolt and thread are made of plastic but the top that you actually see is metal. If you're wanting something that will match other stainless appliances and fixtures, this definitely will. We've been happy with it.

The only difference I can see between the two are maybe the finishes. One looks like it has a matte finish, while the other one is just the standard stainless steel.

I'm not 100% sure, but I bought the chrome version and I believe that's the 'shiny' version. From the looks of it, the stainless one is the brushed look. It might not be exactly like brushed nickel, but from the looks of it, it's brushed stainless steel. I hope someone who has purchased the stainless one can answer your question better!

I just ordered the white one and it is stainless steel, but with a white enamel type coating. If you are not careful, any colored stainless steel tends to scratch or flake off. It is very nice looking though, but you do need to take care not to drop or rub keys or abrasive material on it.

Yea, it's a brushed stainless...personally I like the look of polished against brushed, but you may just want to go with a brushed look.

I got the stainless-look with the black bezel. It certainly doesn't look cheap to my eye. It goes with our kitchen decor; I like it a lot. I'm not as wild about the all black look. However, when placed in the corner, the front bezel is mostly what you see.

SS should be a stainless steel finish (brushed look). The other is chrome, I believe.

It's steel, can't tell if stainless. Ours is over 2 years old and we are still pleased. Use it year round, even do Thanksgiving turkey on it. Never had a problem. Price was right and it fits perfectly. Highly recommend.

Yes it is. It's stainless steel on the inside and out. It's also insulated so it looks a lot thinner on the inside than outside.

It has the look and feel of Stainless. It is not stamped Stainless but I believe it to be.

It has a stainless steel look and feel to it. But i'm not positive if it is stainless. I would look it up on Hamilton Beach's website.

It's stainless like my appliances where you can see your reflection but it's not Chrystal clear. Does that make sense?

It is actually stainless steel and an OEM product. It is simply glued on, unbelievable! I got replace mine because someone bumped into my bumper. I am very happy about the product and service

This oven has a stainless steel front. This is a very good oven at any price.

Oh it is definitely stainless steel! Very heavy so you will need help installing it!

I'm not sure. It is a painted black metal around the sides and appears to be shiny like chrome, but could very well be stainless steel. I would look up Hamilton Beach products and they may be more specific.
