Great wok, great price Sep 06, 2010 The Wok is nice, light and works as intended. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars because it's not quite as easy to season as some would have you believe. While I'm no expert, the wok still sticks a bit on some things when using it after a good initial seasoning and many uses. I've researched and seen a few tutorials from experts but haven't reached quite the same non-stick I'm used to on cast iron.
1 Star deduction for time investment compared to a couple other brands my friends have tried and succeeded on. Maybe it's me or maybe it's because besides the first seasoning we're not on a gas top, but I feel these factors fit into the reduction.
Anyway, the wok seems well made, the lid was better than expected and it preforms magnificently for cooking.
I would recommend this and buy it again if required. Works great on our induction top.
Great wok Jun 10, 2010 This is a very sturdy carbon steel wok with a very light aluminum lid and a nice bamboo spatula.
I have had no problem with rust. The trick is to not scrub off/through the "seasoning" when cleaning. You just scrape it down with a bamboo utensil and maybe a paper towel. No dish washing liquid nor abrasive pads required! A wok is not meant to be cleaned in the same way as your stainless steel cookware.
It's a lot of fun cooking with this wok.
I will offer the following advice for the first-time wok user: Realize that your kitchen stove probably doesn't put out the BTUs that a commercial unit does, so don't over-fill the wok when cooking - You cannot make the big servings like your local Chinese restaurant does. For the same reason, there is really no reason to get any bigger wok for home use, unless of course you have commercial equipment at home.

I wouldn't recommend buying this May 23, 2010 Before buying this wok set, I read all the reviews on Amazon and was convinced that those who gave this product bad reviews did not handle the wok properly. In other words, I believed that via proper seasoning, this wok should work rather well. It turned out the opposite. I read the instruction information carefully, did the seasoning according to the instruction,and it only worked for a short while. Do you ever want to know how frustrating it is to wash the wok after each use(taking 3 times longer than washing a regular pan)? Do you ever want to know how frustrating it is to season the wok for 3 times after it rusts? Do you ever want to know how frustrating it is to call the customer service, only to find that the number is now an All-State number? Honestly, I'd say that this wok may work well for a short while. So if you feel prepared to embrace all the frustrations it may incur after the 3rd use, then go for it! Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend this product to anyone.

Rust issues May 17, 2010 This is NOT junk! It is an old fashioned, not chemically treated carbon steel wok. By definition, carbon steel will rust if not thoroughly dried! Wash it, wipe it, let it sit in open air for ten minutes and it's fine. Use some common sense, folks! It will serve you beautifully for years if you just treat it properly.

Difficult to Clean Apr 10, 2010 After repeated seasonings the wok still continues to rust after each cleaning. We followed the instructions and yet this still seems to occur. Otherwise it does it's job, and for cooking we are quite pleased.
