If a magnet doesn't stick to it, then it is NOT really stainless
steel. More likely brushed aluminum.

I'd be surprised if anyone posting in this thread doesn't have in
their house a magnet and both kinds of stainless steel. The standard
of empirical enquiry in this newsgroup is very disappointing. And
everyone posting here has trivially easy access to google. The
standard of research is pretty disappointing too.

Oh, puh-leaze. An NG is a free exchange medium, not a knowledge test.
I made the mistake of assuming that stainless steel would always attract
magnets and so did others. And so I learned something and I'm slightly
the richer for it.
