Guest Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 So, we are looking for a fridge...dh voted for stainless appliances, so stove is as pictured. I found this Black Ice fridge and I love it, but dh says it absolutely does not "go". So, I guess I just need to hear from other people that it would look absolutely terrible... :crying: (You can be a little nice about it, though, lol.) I thought maybe since it has stainless handles, it was designed to go with either. Maybe not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torikei Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I think it matches. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melissad2 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Sorry but I think they would look fine together. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tabrizia Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I think it would work. The stove isn't totally stainless, with the black stove top, and the black fridge with the stainless steel handles compliments it nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelli Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I agree. I think it looks really cool together actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudoMom Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I'm with the others. They look good together :001_smile:. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurelia Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 While they don't "match", they "coordinate" very well. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawna in Texas Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 It totally matches. Why wouldn't it? The handles on the fridge are very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaxMom Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I don't really see the problem. Stove: stainless with black. Fridge: black with stainless. I have a friend with a large - six burner, oven and a half - stainless range... Her fridge and dishwasher are white. I never considered them "non-matching". I don't think stainless is the same as painted finishes, where they'd look odd is one was black, one was white, one was almond... Hey! I just walked into my kitchen and guess what? MY stainless, French door fridge? Sides are black. Yeah, I think you're good. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tree Frog Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 If it were me, they'd match. Both black/stainless steel, just different dominant colors. Why is it so important to match precisely? We're looking to buy a house in a couple of weeks and matching appliances are quite low on my priority list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kricau Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Well, I am one more. Honestly , I think they look nice together. Like a designer deal. I would add a black dish washer with the control panel having a stainless steel strip. My electrician hubby says he has seen that in houses he works on. Or should I say the mansions he works on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1Togo Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Yes, they look good together. In fact, we have something similiar, and it looks great irl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaleidoscope Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Sorry, I couldn't put them together at all. I get the view that they are coordinating but I couldn't do it. It would drive me nuts. Of course it doesn't bother you so I guess you just have to figure out how much it truly bothers your dh. It would make me hate the kitchen so how much does he dislike it and does it matter if he dislikes it?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktgrok Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I like it fine. The stainless stove has black accents and the black fridge has stainless accents. I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denisemomof4 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Stainless stove with black cooktop/black refrigerator with stainless handles. I think they look great together and I am a VERY visual person who is known to be picky.:001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perogi Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I think it would be just fine. When we bought our appliances I was going to get a black fridge with our stainless stove just to save money but the stainless fridge ended up being on sale and cheaper than the black one! I would do it and get a black dishwasher with a stainless control panel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinkInTheBlue Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I agree that these go well together. I like it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justLisa Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I love it, they absolutely DO go together. I have a higher end range that is white, with very large/long stainless pulls, and my fridge is white. I do NOT want a stainless fridge.

newlifemom Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 You do not know how heartening it was to read the responses. After viewing the pics, I felt like a fashion boob, b/c I thought they looked fine.

Guest Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Well, the problem now is that both dh and I really want to see it, and we can't find a place that carries it. Apparently, it is new. Seeing it in person would really solidify to both of us if it would work or not. If I can't find it, it's a no-go for sure. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gardenmom5 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 i don't think they go. I also veto a sxs fridge. get a dutch door. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justLisa Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) Then get THIS one :D Comes in stainless with black accents too. Maybe you can find IT locally to see? Edited July 21, 2012 by 425lisamarie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unicorn. Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 The stove is stainless and black. The fridge is black and stainless. What doesn't match? They would complement each other very well, I think. And you wouldn't need sunglasses for all that shiny stainless! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgo95 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I think they can coordinate well. What finish/color are the rest of your appliances (microwave, dishwasher, etc.)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wy_kid_wrangler04 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I like them! They don't match (meaning look the same) BUT they do coordinate VERY well!! Use the word coordinate with him not match ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
