McCormick Black Pepper Grinder - 1oz

Works well. Great taste. Great value.

Wish it was recyclable.

Not a fan. You made it nearly impossible to remove the grinder, which makes it unrecyclable. Maybe that's intended so that consumers buy a brand new one. I won't be one of those people. What a waste.

I agree with the previous reviewer that it is almost impossible to remove the grinder head in order to recycle the glass. Watched the video; still could not remove the grinder. Please re design your packaging. The product is good, but the packaging is not eco friendly.

They should put wanna be pepper on the label I even added some thinking I might get some taste, but no. This money just went in the trash.

Got me off regulare pepper. This is addictive because it makes things tasty! Nice & easy to use.

I never got the item

The instructions on how to adjust the grind size could be a little more detailed, as in: leave the lid in place; the gray section is the grind selection for coarse, etc. Just twist. THEN remove black cap, turn upside down and twist. Instructions are vague and confusing.

My family has been using McCormick products for decades. The flavor and consistency of the products is amazing.

Removal of grinder cap -for recycling purposes- is almost impossible. The whole thing ended up in the trash... This is the second time I bought it, and surely will not buy again. A total "greenwash". Reconsider your ethics Mccormick….

This new design is awful. First problem is removing and replacing lid. It is difficult to "pop" the top off, actually painful to the thumb and fingers. Plus, you have to give it a good whack to put it back on. The grinder itself does not seem to work properly , therefore you have to exert extra effort just to try to grind. Mine is set at medium, but it frequently binds up. Not a fan. Go back to old design. As they say " If it ain't broke, don't fi it!" There was no reason, I can see for making the current change. You had a good product that worked fine

If you have it on minimum on the grind dial, hardly any comes out. You have to grind it about 30 times to get a small amount of pepper to come out. If you put it on even a small increase on the dial, you get hard pieces of peppercorn coming out! Just awful! You think being McCormick, which is a namebrand, it would be better. The only good thing I can say, is that you can remove the top & add more peppercorns when it’s empty.

I've purchased these pepper grinders for years and I've never been able to use the entire peppercorns as the grinder teeth wear out to soon. 1/4 of the peppercorns are usually left unusable as the teeth will no longer grind them.

Why did you change the pepper mill grinder (.85oz)? The old design was much better. The new one has the WEIRD shape red plastic that does not have any scoring or something to grab onto while turning it. I also cut myself on the top red part as it is very sharp in places. The shape is ridiculous and the black cover is difficult to put back in place, partly because of that stupid red plastic shape. I also do not like the shape of the bottle. The old bottle had a wider bottom which made it more stable on a table rather than the new bottle which is more narrow. And why in the world are there two places on the new bottle bottom that has no glass? That even makes the new bottle more unstable. Why did McCormick make this change? It's the worst. It makes you avoid using pepper at all because it is so unpleasant and unsafe. This was a very dumb idea on someone's part at McCormick.

While the actual peppercorn is fantastic, the grinder is utterly useless junk. It broke and had a crack down the side of the top. Then to add insult to injury it fell off while I was seasoning my steaks causing pepper corn to go everywhere. Ruining my steaks, my dinner, and my night. Of course it struck again ruining my breakfast. I have two of these and the so low quality. None this happened when McCormick used their old design for the grinders! I guess I'll be using Morton for my seasonings from now on.

Loved the previous design grinder but the new container is too difficult to remove the lid and use. It requires an utensil to pop it off while hoping not to get hurt in the process. I have injured fingernails trying the first few times. Now in search of a new brand due to the frustration of opening this product.

This grinder is so easy to use. Love the flavor.

I've tried to operate new bottle design pepper grinder to adjust to the 3 sizes of grinds. I cannot. I read your instructions provided to other posters with same problem. The pieces simply don't move. It would take someone with an enormous grip to move those parts enough to adjust the grind. As for me, I could not get the parts to move, as I do not possess "enormous grip". For now I am stuck with the "fine grind" because the parts will not move to adjust to the other two sizes.

Thought I would like the new smaller McCormick pepper mill. I cannot figure out how to change the grind. I tried twisting both directions and pulling but can not get to move. Very disappointing so last one I will purchase. Time to look for a better design from another company after i returned to store where I challenged them to adjust grind and they couldn't either.

I was a longtime user of the old design. While I applaud McCormick for taking the initiative to make the product easily recyclable, this design does not function as intended. It is almost impossible to turn the device for grind and the grinder head continually works its way off the bottle as you do so. I hope you will rework this but I will be buying a competitor's product for the foreseeable future.
