what color cabinet pulls with black stainless appliances?

7 years ago
Nearly finished with our remodel but something is holding me up. We have white kitchen cabinets and black stainless appliances. My dilemma is with choosing cabinet pulls. I was thinking of doing stainless/ brushed nickel pulls, but then I discovered you can get black nickel pulls (looks like the black stainless). That seemed like the obvious choice until I considered that my sink, faucet, trash can, and toaster are all regular stainless. Do I get regular stainless pulls to help tie those things in, or do I get black stainless pulls to make as much coordinate as possible? Please help!

    Match the sink/faucet etc.

    what did you end up doing for pulls and backsplash? I'm in the same dilemma. my full remodel starts next Monday and I'm sick to my stomach over picking the black stainless steel appliances. I haven't purchased a faucet yet and thought I could accent with a dark faucet, black or black nickel hardware and dark grout?

    We are also going with black stainless and white cabinets very simular in style to yours. I am leaning towards black cabinet hardware. my lighting is black and copper and I didn't like the way the other finishes looked.

    I'm also a few weeks away from my kitchen remodel starting. I have white cabinets (shaker + raised panel), going to go with Cambria Berwyn counters, and ordered all black stainless appliances (eeks). Still figuring out backsplash, leaning glass subway tiles in a very light gray. Still need to figure out cabinet pulls and eventually the floor. Agonizing over my black stainless choice now since almost all photos with my counter are regular stainless and look beautiful.

    Stephanie your kitchen looks really nice! White cabinets, black appliances, black cabinet pulls, brushed silver faucet. What color sink do you have there?

    Its stainless. I really considered doing black sink and faucet but was concerned about always having water spots.

    Sara can you post a pic please. That’s exactly what I’m looking to do. Starting next month

    Renee, my remodel is still in the construction phase (knocking down walls, reinforcing existing structure to compensate) so no photos yet but I'll post them when it's all done!

    I too have black stainless, white raised panel cabinets, Cambria Berwyn counters, light gray cloud glass backsplash tiles, and I am going with dark brushed nickel pull (somewhere between black and brushed nickel) It's perfect with the appliances. Deb

    Deb, do you have a link to such pulls? I am ordering samples of some brushed nickel and black cabinet hardware to see in the space before I decide. What color sink did you pick? Elkay quartz in Greystone is what I have my eye on right now. I wanted dark to hide stains but black felt too dark and I hope this gray goes nicely with the Berwyn.

    I am fixing to start a kitchen remodel in the next couple of weeks. I have already hired someone to build cabinets that will take 2 1/2 to 3 weeks. I have hired someone to take down a wall and do the flooring and backsplash. Now I’m stressed about the finishes will be. I ordered a white porcelain farm sink. I already have a kitchen aid black stainless gas range that I bought last year. Now I am wishing I wouldn’t have went with black stainless. I have a black stainless refrigerator already But now I need a black stainless microwave, dishwasher and vent hood. And those are more expensive than stainless steel ones. And I can’t decide what I want for cabinet hardware and faucet. My cabinets will be painted white and they are shaker style and my countertop will probably be simply white quartz and my backsplash will probably be something that has glass stone mixture with blues and light tan colors.

    I too ordered black stainless steel appliances. They have yet to be delivered. My cabinets are going in this week. I went with ice white shaker cabinets. My counter top will be Silestone Eternal Calacatta Gold. And I chose a white granite sink. I haven’t decided on a back splash yet. I want to see everything in before deciding on it. I decided on a gold brushed stainless steel hardware pulls for drawers and cabinets. Do I then match my faucet with the gold hardware or should I go with a black faucet? I’m undecided on the flooring too. I have dark oak hardwood floors in the living room. The kitchen faces the living room. I don’t think I want the same oak hardwood flooring in the kitchen, so do I go with tile? What color tile will compliment or be a good contrast in the kitchen?

    I too am getting the new black gunmetal looking stainless steel appliances. I am going with white pewter glazed caninets and pewter pullls and a pewter faucet. I want a country sink, but not sure what color apron yet.
