I love these pulls. I saw them in a big box store and they were a lot more expensive there. I ordered the polished nickel, but ended up sending them back for the stainless steel. The polished nickel is more of a smooth mirror surface. The stainless steel is more of a brushed steel look. I saw the golden nickel in the store and it was soo pretty! If it would match the rest of my kitchen, I would have bought that color.
