I would like to know if the flange is stainless, reviews said that the WK's flange is not stainless and their name very bold and tacky

the flange is stainless steel and the waste king that is etched in the flange is not noticeable.

By flange, I assume you mean the the piece that you see on the sink bottom that goes around the hole? If so, yes, it is stainless. It does say WASTE KING on two sides and has a little crown on each side. It's not gaudy or anything, at least in my opinion. I mean it doesn't jump out at you, but if you stick your head over the sink, you can read it etched into the stainless. Hope that helps!

I am not sure if the flange is stainless, but it is very well designed unit and very quite comparing to the same size unit form Sears. Very easy to install or retrofit if you already have one that went bad.

yes this is true but I don't think that it looks all that bad with their name on it.

Test to be sure it is the real stainless, and not the coated stuff. Whirlpool has used both materials in different models. If you bought it because it resists fingerprints it is not likely real stainless

I have the polished chrome which shines and is different than the brushed nickel. I don't know about stainless. I thought it had a shine too.

Yes the stainless is like brushed nickel minus the gold tint in brushed nickel, If you have brushed nickel faucets then the silver will go nicely. The chrome is nice as well, the quality is the same on both. And Yes chrome is shiny and brushed is well brushed! :) http://qualitytubandtile.com/?p=1739Purchased all finishes and probably my favorite is stainless.Enjoy,Jeff WoodingQuality Tub and Tile

I don't think it's stainless, but it is much heavier than the previous model. I am still happy with mine after nearly a year.

It is not stainless steel; I have worked with products similar to this. I used a magnet to check even though it's too shiny for stainless steel. Stainless would be physically heavier, too.

They said it was stainless in the description. Other than that I don't know.

Hansgrohe uses the term 'Steel Optik' which is confusing. I would say it is a stainless steel finish with a fine brush finish. Definitely not chrome or shiny. It matches well with my stainless sink and appliances. It doesn't look cheap like a lot of the low-end stainless steel appliances.

Flange and spacer tube are metal! Only thing I noticed is they aren't welded all the way around, unless you plan on being hard on it doesn't matter but if you plan on beating it up, do what I did and lay a bead all the way around top and bottom! Other than that, works great!

Not sure on the brand but mine is granite-resin the basin flange is about 3/8" thick and it fitted fine. Hope that helps.

Hi,l had the same question. I bought the shower caddy. It's 100 percent stainless. I'm very happy.

It looks more like a brushed nickel to me. My daughter has had this faucet for a few months and she has had a problem with the sprayer not staying in. It just wants to not click closed.

mine is rusting on the inside near the pour spout so I'd say it may not be stainless steel...

I'm not going to say for sure, but I believe the material of this piece is much heavier and of a higher quality that the cheaper version. I also bought the K-11352-CP Disposal Flange, so both sinks matched.

No, this is polished (shiny) stainless steel where the 441098 disposer flange is satin nickel.

The finished is the shiny/glossy stainless steel all clad is known for - so to answer your question it is not brushed metal finish. Great stockpot!

Daniels, I didn't check the actual gauge of the stainless, however in my opinion, it's ok for the purpose. It is a satin finish, and a good value for this product, however it's not a heavy highly polished stainless steel sink that may sell for $600 or more.
