Initially my stove looked very dull after being polished, but after a week, after brushing and wiping it off once again, it was as bright as I expected it to be. The only issue that I was not happy with, was with the courier: in spite of their messages about their progress, they did not inform me when they were going to deliver. When they arrived, our complex security called me and I waited outside my house. They never arrived. I enquired at security and apparently the courier got lost in spite of unit numbers and directions very clearly visible. They did not even call me to ask for help. You may consider a more dependable courier.
