From the photo, this "Stainless" finish appears to similar to brushed nickle? Is that true?

Yes, the faucet is very similar to a brushed nickel imo. It could also pass for stainless.

Mine is brushed stainless. So it has a sheen to it, but not like chrome finishes. I throw my around in cleaning and it looks fine to me. Really enjoying it.

It is a brushed finish. It doesn't look like my stainless refrigerator (more grey and less reflective), but it looks pretty good!

I think the Arctic Stainless looks more like Brushed Nickel than the standard stainless steel.

Yes it is brushed nickel. They are beautiful, I bought two and we love them. Great buy.

The description says "stainless steel" and if it comes with a brushed finish (rather than polished finish), it is duller and less likely to show finger prints. Ours is the brushed finish and it looks like similar brush finishes found on nickel or other metals used in fixtures and appliances.

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.

we have a brushed stainless finish...not high shine... it goes nicely with our stainless stove and microwaves...overall, the faucet is great, a very towering/impressive appearance, easy to use, works flawlessly so far (1 month)...recommend this item without reservations

It is a shiny mirror finish, not a brushed finish. FYI, brushed stainless is still a stainless steel, just a different finish.

They actually call it a 'matte nickel' finish. There is a very slight 'grain' to it. I personally would call it 'brushed' nickel. It is not a shiny finish.

No, im not really sure how it gets its metalic look but its not a thin layer of stick on metal. It looks like brushed stainless it has a directional pattern.

The finish is basically the same. ( The brushed look) The metals are different, one is stainless which has a natural brushed look. The other is nickel which needs to be brushed to get that look. The colors are so close to each other that it is sometimes hard to tell them apart. Hope this helps.

Everything that shows is brushed nickel. I just ordered two more for my other bathroom....faucets and the 9000 M-pact for both sinks.

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

It has a brushed nickle finish. The one I bought has developed a problem with the switch that changes between spray and full flow. No parts are available.

It is brushed nickel but a bit shinier than the usual brushed nickel faucet. I bought two of them and they are a huge value for the money. The looks beat fixtures at 4 times the price.
