Marc, Wow, I did not know there was such a price difference. I have a KC in stainless that I put away about 2 years ago. I never paid attention to the finish. I will have to see what I have.Hey Omni,The model number you have is for the standard stainless and not the bright stainless. There is nearly $1000 difference from satin stainless to bright stainless. $1200 satin $2200 bright. Best of luckMarc
