For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I ruined my steam iron by putting the wrong sort of vinegar in it - I didn't use white vinegar to descale it - and it stunk of fish and chips, and everything had a dark red stain on it. So I bought a new iron (and some new pillowcases etc) and now I buy a cheap bottle of still water to use instead of tap water. Seems OK.
