  1. Seen by a doctor or nurse

    Made Dec 14, 2021, sent to the company Dec 16, 2021, published by CPSC Jan 3, 2022

    The product, in the report: Pepper mill manufactured by Cole & Mason, Derwent is the model. Color is stainless steel. It was a salt and pepper combo. The grind of the mills are adjustable.

    While grinding black peppercorns into a ramekin, I notice a black broken piece of plastic. I emptied the well of a Derwent pepper mill and found a couple of more pieces . Not sure if plastic was digested prior to the discovery but there were two occasions where sharp abdominal pain was experienced two days apart (duration ( 5-10 seconds), after finding the plastic. Several instances since then. Met with Doctor on 12/4 and decision was made not to do a cat scan at this time since it maybe just spasm in colon and just a coincidence. Found one more piece of plastic in the well after the first instance.

    The product, in the report: Cole and Mason Keswick Pepper Mill

    On December 1, 2019 I ordered this pepper mill from Wayfair.com. The product arrived 15 days later and I wrapped it as a Christmas gift for my spouse (gift for us). When we opened the gift and mill, we opened the cap to replace the peppercorns in the unit and discovered a piece of plastic with the peppercorns. It came from the top of the mill, the part you turn to grind peppercorns. I used Wayfair.com’s online return process and they said I was to keep the unit and they would send a replacement. On Jan 13, 2020 I received the replacement and it too had the very same issue. So, i’m assuming this is a product safety issue as opposed to a one-off incident and on Jan 18, 2020 I decided to not contact Wayfair again but report to CPSC.

    Cole and Mason Keswick Pepper Mill has material defect and a broken piece of the peppermill falls into the peppercorns. There is a prong on the lid of this grinder that breaks off and falls into the peppermill. Because the mill continues to function without 1 of the 4 prongs, the plastic piece sits among the peppercorns and falls into the grinding portion of the mill and either gets chopped into your food, or halts the function of the mill.
