Review on Upgrade Your Frothing Experience with Update International ☕ EP-12 12 Oz Stainless Steel Frothing Pitcher - Silver by Ben Olson

The item arrived with a blackish coating inside and out as if someone who has been working on cars all day decided to pick up and pack the item without washing their hands. In addition, the product had a small, barely noticeable dent on the side that could not have come from shipping (it was well packaged, the box was undamaged). I had to hand clean and rub it several times to get a black coating. and stains from it. There are some marks that still don't go away but are hard to see and shouldn't affect the performance of the frothing pot. It still smells weird even after multiple cleanings, but should (hopefully) go away after a good wash in the dishwasher. note the dent. I would return/exchange it but that would be a last resort as it would affect my coffee consumption and the horror of this reality is not worth waiting for a new product.
