Question

I just bought a cheap $10 Durabrand 12 cup coffee pot. When I used the coffee pot the first time, my coffee tasted funny, alomst like a chemical or plastic. I ran several pots of plain water through the pot, tried again, same taste. I then put vinegar through the pot, followed by several pots of water. The taste and smell is still there. Any suggestions? I've bought several coffee pots over my life time and never ran into this before. Even if you can put me in touch with the manufacturer that would be helpful.Thank you!Mikki
