Stainless steel is a metal alloy which stands out for its hardness and hard-wearing resistance characteristics. Stainless steel resists impact, corrosion and it withstands temperatures of up to 500°C. Indeed, owing to these intrinsic characteristics, stainless steel is the material of choice when making professional kitchens. Indeed, these need to be especially resistant to wear, considering they are designed for much more intensive use. Owing to its characteristics, stainless steel is being increasingly used in the production of domestic kitchens too.

Beware: not all stainless steel kitchens for the home are the same because not all stainless steels are the same. Quite the opposite…
If the stainless steel does not have the right hardness or the right thickness, the risk is that you will end up with a scratched, or worse, a dented stainless steel kitchen in your home. If you are not careful when you choose it, your dream of having a stainless steel kitchen in your home could turn into a disappointing nightmare (on top of being a waste of money).
This is why it is important to choose a kitchen made with the most suitable, hard-wearing stainless steel, also for domestic use.
All the stainless steel kitchens for domestic use by Lanejoy are made using AISI 304 stainless steel, the same stainless steel that is used to make professional kitchens.
