Like others have said stainless is a pain in the but to keep clean, but if you like that look and are willing to spend the time cleaning it or have someone to clean it for you then why not. Personally my house is a mix of appliances and fixtures that range from a few years old to 20 plus years old and I have had more problems with the newer stuff. Not a fan of ice makers I have seen a lot of cases where they have leaked and done significant damage before people realised the line was leaking.

it is especially scary that there does not appear to be redundant safeguards on the dishwasher.

My fantasy kitchen would have SubZero refrigeration and freezers with matching cabinet inserts on the fronts.
Same panel insert for dishwasher. it looks so slick.
A Viking or Five star 6 burner gas cooktop on the wall with big hood over it with stainless panel in between. A backwall faucet over the stove.
a 36" Bosch induction cooktop in the island with a sink next too it.

Lots of kitchen and laundry appliances appear to be private label all made by the same company with trim and label differences. Whirlpool makes some of these.
Matching kitchen appliances can provide the complete range from great to horrible in operation. My Whirlpool refrigerator works well enough but the Whirlpool dishwasher next to it is a POS as far as I'm concerned it's noisy and everything comes out wet. Loved my 20 year old Kitchenaid dishwasher; dishes came out clean and dry and I could sit on the floor next to it and talk on the phone it was so quiet. Just pulled the serviceable Whirlpool range and slid in a Samsung double oven model -- No, it doesn't match exactly but is close enough. I had two full size wall ovens at my last house. Dual oven is critical a few times a year.
