As world resourses get shorter it is more and more likely cheaper
steel will be used. It's not just a case of how good the ore is, but
what else is being chucked back in it. Don't forget all the steel car
parts rusting away and the pressure to recycle them. It is exactly the
same for cooking appliances and we have seen inferior steel ovens by
manufacturers who used to have the best quality steel 20 years ago. I
agree with the staining and have come across this more often over the
recent years. Best thing is to shop around and take advice. Best of
luck.
