Steel is simply iron with a small percentage of carbon. It oxidizes (rusts) easily. Stainless steel has added chromium, but also may contain any of the following: nickel, niobium, molybdenum, or titanium. Stainlees steels form a very thin layer of chromium oxide on the surface which protects it from further oxidation. While stainless is not stain-proof, it does stain less than carbon steel. Most stainless steels are non-magnetic, or very weakly magnetic.

Well, the answer lies in the question; by saying 'real' stainless steel, you are implying that there are fake metals which go under the name 'stainless steel', thus the difference is that the stainless steel in refigerators is actually stainless steel, and the fake stainless steel is not...thus your question is answered...
UTS of 304L Stainless Steel is 586MPa UTS of 304 Stainless Steel is 621MPa
True stainless steel will not rust.
Poisson's Ratio of stainless steel
Asus makes several selections of stainless steel towers to choose from.
A steel is considered to be stainless if it contains 13% or more chromium.
A Plus Warehouse makes stainless steel garage work benches.
The addition of other metals makes steel stainless.
The different types of stainless steel cookware available in the market include 18/10 stainless steel, 18/8 stainless steel, and 18/0 stainless steel. These numbers refer to the percentages of chromium and nickel in the stainless steel, which affect the cookware's durability and resistance to corrosion.
What makes steel stainless.
yes
steel isn't as refined but stainless is well stainless and shiny oohlala hot bod Stainless steel is an alloy (mixture) that has chromium mixed in. The chrome makes ordinary steel harder, more brittle, and more resistant to rust and stains, hense, stainless steel.
Many stainless steels are stronger than mild steel. Stainless steel is also corrosion resistant to many different environments where mild steel is not.

Easy. A rod or electrode used in welding stainless steel. Or to "clad" a surface with stainless steel. (Nothing more than laying down a layer or layers of stainless.) MIG wire also comes in stainless steel. Their are different types of stainless steel and rods/wire/electrodes to use on them.
