Stainless steel cooker

Looking at buying a Hotpoint stainless steel finished induction cooker. Just wondered if anyone had good/bad experience of this type of material, as in keeping clean and free from fingermarks etc. Our stainless sink is a pain, but mainly from hard water deposits. Thanks...

Looks good but it is fingerprint magnet stuff.
Our kitchen is all stainless appliances & even using special cleaner it's not good.
Though neither was the black we had before.
White though boring is so much easier to keep clean.

Use a small drop of baby oil to clean .

A tiny bit of Vaseline works too but it doesn't stop the fingerprints & marks.
We have an AEG stainless steel fridge which is supposedly coated to prevent marks and finger prints.
It doesn't work.

I had one once, and never again! Apart from finger marks & streaks even boiling an egg leaves water spots, because try as you will you can't stop some water sending droplets out and landing on the hob.
I also found that when cleaning it, stood over it looked perfect, move a couple of feet and look from a different view.....arrrgghhh streaks! Looking back I think it was one of the worst high maintenance purchases I have ever made, I was forever rubbing it with kitchen roll.

Not really all that "stainless", is it? It must be about due to fall out of fashion as a material, anyway. Hasn't it been in for about 15 years?
