I have had this teapot about 3 months and in this last month it has been in constant use and yesterday these stains appeared, is it rust? Should I throw away the kettle or can it be saved?

Assuming it’s stainless it might be rust or it could just be dirty. Just take a scotch Brite pad and scrub it off with some elbow grease. Even if it is rust it will come off and be fine. Source: metal trades person

This isn’t limescale though. The stainless surface isn’t perfectly smooth already and appears to be a light brushed, though may just be spun. A kitchen scotch brite pad isn’t going to increase the surface roughness any. That said, I’d use barkeepers friend for this particular issue.
