    How to choose stainless steel countertops for kitchens:

    1. When buying stainless steel cabinets, you should first ask the cabinetmaker to show it.

    Quality inspection certificate about stainless steel cabinet material. Because stainless steel plates are divided into many grades, the quality of the grade determines the quality of the plate. When choosing stainless steel cabinets, consumers should try to choose stainless steel plates made of 304 material, which are more suitable for stainless steel countertops.

    In reality, there are often some unscrupulous dealers who use 201 secondary stainless steel plates as 304 materials for sales, which harm consumers. Therefore, when purchasing, you should try to ask the merchant to provide a quality certification certificate, or ask the merchant to conduct quality inspection.

    2. Pay attention to the welding lines in the details. Because stainless steel is used in the production combination of welding technology, therefore, when choosing, attention should be paid to check whether the lines of these welds are uniform and flat, especially to check the welding process of the table, there must be no broken welding, uneven welding.

    3. Look at the edge banding. The edge sealing of high-quality stainless steel cabinets is delicate, smooth, and feels good, the sealing line is straight and smooth, the joints are fine, there is no open edge, no edges and corners, and there can be no obvious feeling of cutting hands when touching the bottom edge of the countertop.

    Fourth, look at the assembly effect of the whole set of cabinets. Any size error in the production process will be manifested on the door panel, the door panel produced by the professional factory is horizontal and vertical, and the gap between the doors is uniform, and the cabinet produced by the inferior manufacturer, the door panel will have uneven door seams, uneven gaps, large and small, etc.

    5. Look at the drawer rails. Although it is a small detail, it is an important part of the quality of the cabinet. Due to the size error of the hole position and the plate, there is an error in the installation size of the slide rail, resulting in the drawer pulling is not smooth or loose left and right, and it is also necessary to pay attention to whether the drawer gap is uniform.

    6. When purchasing stainless steel countertops, it is necessary to choose countertops that have undergone wire drawing and embossing processes. This kind of table top has a strong ability to resist scratches and deformation due to special treatment. Try to choose a thicker stainless steel countertop, which can better prevent deformation and will not cause deformation of the countertop due to the fall of some objects on the stainless steel countertop.

    Nowadays, many people choose stainless steel countertops and basins when installing cabinets, but there are still many doorways inside. Method steps.

    1. At present, there are "304", "201", "203" and other types of steel on the market, and the composition contained between them is different, and the performance is also different. For example, 304 steel is better than 201 steel in terms of hardness and rust resistance. In some old houses that use galvanized pipes, the rust in the water pipes is easy to bring to the basin or countertop, and the use of 304 model steel can effectively prevent the rust of the steel body.

    2 For stainless steel countertops, due to the usual load-bearing, there may be some chopping action when cooking, and a slightly thicker countertop can increase the load-bearing performance. The thickness of the stainless steel basin should be moderate, and the thickness should not be excessively pursued. The general thickness of the basin should be in millimeters.

    When washing dishes, glass and ceramic products often hit the wall of the basin, which requires the steel body to have a rebound performance. If the walls of the basin are too thick, this rebound performance is insufficient, and the cutlery can easily break. 3.

    In addition, there must be a plate as a liner under the stainless steel countertop, and it is not easy to deform with a wood-based panel, which is a better choice.
