Question: How to get rid off the terrible plastic tasted?
Document: Plastic smell of the water after boiling.I tried all advice from T-fal to get rid of the plastic taste. Doesn't help. Looks like I'm just going to have to throw it out as a waste of money. Terrible customer support
I use this kettle at work multiple times a day. It is fast and quiet. The only reason that I'm not giving it 5 stars is because only the bottom of the pitcher is metal - the balance is unlined plastic. While it still stays hot, it has taken about a month to get rid of that "new-plasticy" taste.
I had this kettle for a couple of weeks and tried everything in the book to get rid of the plastic smell and taste. Nothing worked and I wasn't willing to see if it would go away after a couple of months of use. Just how many bad cups of tea do T-Fal expect me to drink?
Looks great. Boils water fast. But I can not get rid of the smell and taste of plastic in the water. The directions included with the product warn of this problem -- sort of scary, now that I think about it -- and provide the "solution" to the problem. I followed those instructions, the smell and taste problem disappeared for awhile, but after having not used the kettle for a few months, the problem is back.
I purchased this product at the end of March 2014. It was the biggest mistake I have made when it comes to Kettle. Since the purchase, up to June 2014 we were unable to remove the odor. Tried a few tricks to get rid of the odor and so far nothing. On top of that the Kettle turns on and off on it's own.Today I had spoke to customer service after my unpleasant experience.
Plastic smell is terrible!! the taste was even worse!! I called manufacturer t-fal to complain. I sent product to them!! Waiting to hear .
I have this water cooker now for a couple of months... it does what it supposed to do. It heats up the water very fast and it doesn't leaks, BUT the first 3-4 weeks the water tasted like burned plastic. I boiled vinegar numerous time in it but the tasted would come back after two days. Somebody mentioned lemon juice to me, it work like a charm.
It's actually a very good kettle, but I was about to return it because of the plastic smell & taste. It took over three weeks to finaly consider it acceptable. The manufacturer recommends one rinse with baking soda; I did it 7 times, and it still tasted of plastic. We read on some reviews that it goes away with time, but it didn't seem to, so I printed out a return label. Then I decide to rinse it with vinegar, then boil some vinegar water.
I was also pleased to find the water level window in the side of the kettle and not hidden under the handle !! I bought one like that and immediately got rid of it. I use this kettle every morning for instant coffee. I haven't used any temperature setting other than the highest one, so I can't comment on the lower settings. The plastic exterior is much easier to keep clean than stainless--also cooler.
I purchased a T-Fal Vitesse electric kettle ten years ago and loved it. This model, however, literally stinks. It has a terrible plastic smell that permeates any liquid which is heated within it. Just open the lid and take a deep breath and you realize that something isn't right. I even question whether or not it is a genuine T-Fal product since the name is mis-spelled "Vitesses" instead of "Vitesse".
Answer: I would recommend boiling water (full kettle) with a few drops of lemon juice once/twice... It goes away. We are using our kettle for a number of months - and it's perfectly fine.
