What’s the actual difference between normal and stainless steel?

I keep hearing the phrase ‘stainless steel’ and I’m still not sure why it’s such a selling point compared to regular steel. Is it just for aesthetic purposes?

Okay imagine steel is a shirt. If you spill something on your shirt it’s going to absorb it and possibly even stain it. Now imagine you waterproof your shirt. When you spill something on it, it’ll be repelled and it won’t stain or absorb whatever you spilled onto it and it will be easier to clean. Very convenient don’t you think? What shirt would you rather have?

Steel is an alloy and there are different types of steel but I will not go into detail. Basically non-stainless steel has no protective coating while stainless does, making it much more easier to clean and it also looks much nicer.
