Is this polished or brushed steel?

Polished. Looks like chome. The cabinet is very small. The mirror is a little bigger than base. It is shaped like a circle. I thought it was oval shaped by looking at the picture.

It is polished steel, very attractive looking. good sized mirror for men to shave or women to put make up on. It was a good buy!

Neither, it's a chrome covered plastic base. And to be sure I tried a magnet. Did not stick. Good deal though. I got two and am very happy with them. The size was perfect. Easy to keep clean. Hope this helps.

The brush steel is more of a matte finish. It is not a shiny silver. It is a very nice fixture.

It has a matt brushed finish, and the handles and the surrounding area are shiny.Mine is older now and it is not all fingerprinty. It is a nice toaster.

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

Brushed steel. Home Depot carries the same one so you can see the finish. Matches my Sub-Zero fridge handles.

It is brushed stainless steel. It matches all of our other stainless steel appliances. HTH...

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.

Both It is the rubbed steel finish. Not a shiny chome type. Hope that helps, I quiet love mine.

I bought the cop for my daughter who lives in another town for use on her milk shake mixer. I seem to remember it as being polished. Sorry I can't be more positive.

It is brushed finished. It has a beautiful lustre to it and looks like sinks that cost double the price. I added polished chrome faucets and strainers, although many people choose brushed nickel. It's a beautiful result either way. Hope this helps.

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

I purchased the bronze one and it is brushed so maybe the silver one is brushed steel. I wish I could be of more help. Sorry.

It's polished. Not chrome like a bumper, but not dull or matte finished either

There is a bit of shine from the stainless steel but it's fairly muted, and the surface looks brushed. I'd say it's matt.

It is not a brushed finish. To the best of my estimation (as a chem. engineer), it is close to a 304SS-2B finish. Here is a photo link to that type of finish: http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=Types+of+Stainless+Steel+Finishes&FORM;=RESTAB#view=detail&id;=D446CBE7BB27EE9ED7137743EFA2FC9031A6E459&selectedIndex;=59 Hope this helps.
