Oh, I should have made it clear as "inside material", but I assumed we
were talking about it, since the inside is facing with cold. Some brands
still use enameled steel for outside covers, especially for washing
machines ,dish washers and ovens, but its use in refrigerators is scarce
as an outside cover, and non existent at all as an inside cover (they
all plastic). At least the brands and types that I know of. By the way,
I still haven't seen from close yet any of those
