I got a teakettle for X-mas that's stainless steel, and whenever I use it, it has a horrible taste, My husband said there may be a filter lining on the inside and to boil water in it several times, then try it out, I did all day yesterday and I tried to use it this morning and it still smells and taste weird.. I tried washing it and soaking it for an hour in hot water, and still does it? How do I get rid of this.. And of COURSE He threw the box out so I can't return it...

Try boiling water with vinegar in it, and then rinse thoroughly, and boil water in it a few times to remove the residual vinegar. Good luck!

Try boiling some water & baking soda in it for 10 minutes to get rid of the taste & smell. If THAT fails, you can always turn it into a planter- or regift it to someone you don't like. :)
