Do these work on a stainless steel fridge?

It will if it is ferritic and will not if it is austenitic stainless. The paint on my son's Melissa and Doug letter/number set chipped off the first time he played with them, so I do not recommend these.

NO magnets stick to stainles steel. The problem is the stainless steel, not the magnets.

Yes, but the magnet isn't super strong. Actually good, in a way, so the letters can be moved around easily by the child.

Hi, The real question is do magnets stick to your fridge. A lot of Stainless fridges are not magnetic. We have a stainless dishwasher and a stainless fridge - they stick to the dishwasher fine but only on the painted side of the fridge - not on the stainless part of it. It just depends on the steel they use. High grade steel is usually not magnetic.

Maybe. There are two types of stainless steel - magnetic and non-magnetic. If the stainless steel on your refrigerator is magnetic, then these rare earth magnets will stick. You can test the stainless steel on your refrigerator with any magnet.

They are not likely to scratch as they are very smooth. However, if one of the magnets gets cracked, that could possibly scratch a surface. So far, we have used a couple of dozen magnets on the refrigerator and they have not scratched. Be sure to watch the two YouTube videos about separating one from a stack and putting it back. That was very helpful at preventing breakage before gluing them to an item. Ours have a solid glass ornament to stick to the refrigerator. When something like that is glued to the magnet, you can tip it to remove it from the fridge. Do not slide or that would probably scratch. They are not likely to scratch as they are very smooth.

YES! this is the way am using them now. My fridge is in arms reach of my stove, so it worked out perfectly.

I'm not sure we used them on our refrigerator, but in thinking you should be able to. They have a strong grip.

They would not attach to the actual SS front of our frig, but did work on the epoxy painted metal sides. It did not scratch the sides of the frig.

They should work with either the fiberglass or on fridge. They are really easy to work with. You can reposition them if you need until you get the desire design you are looking for.

For me they didn't even show up on a black dry erase board. If u want something for the fridge maybe try the new crayola crayons for dry erase boards those probably well work on metal

I think they are universal for the GE fridge. I'm not positive, but I googled my model number and this came up. It wasn't easy to figure out if it was correct or not so I took and chance and it was the correct one. I'd take the chance.

To be honest, that's a silly question that's like asking if a magnet can hold a piece of paper to the fridge (provided the fridge was magnetic to begin with.) In any case the answer is yes. But beware of this paint, even though it's called STAINLESS steel, it actually stains the thing you're painting and makes it sort of steel colored.

Mine don't stick to the stainless steel frig. Love them because they stay so cold in frozen drinks.

Yes, I dry my Stainless steel cookware and I wipe off my Stainless Steel appliances. They work great.

If your fridge door is magnetic, they will stick just fine without the plate. I went to Home Depot though and bought a plate and some stickies so they would be closer to my prep area.

It says not to use on stainless steel appliances as some finishes may scratch. I use them on my stainless steel pots and other material dishes and cookware all the time. I have not noticed any scratching

One of my cheapo refrigerator magnets successfully stuck to the bottom, so I guess that the answer is "yes." :)

Yes they are Stainless Steel. You will be surprised how heavy they are. However I think the insert mechanism is weak compared to the original design in the fifties or sixties. Back then it didn't matter how hard the ice was, if you could lift the lever, you could use your ice immediately without damage to the tray inserts.

They should work if the knives are not stainless steel. High grade stainless steel is not very magnetic; however regular steel will work and low nickel stainless steel may work. You can test the magnetic affinity with any magnet.
