Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This is my second wok of this brand. The first one is round-bottomed that I’m happy with. Unfortunately, the round bottom wok doesn’t fit my home stove. This wok is simple in maintenance. I’m surprised with reviews from people who say wok rusted or coating peeled off. Yes! Any natural carbon steel cooking ware will rust and seasoning will peel off if you neglect the simple maintenance rules and don’t understand the nature of iron and chemistry basics. This wok is perfectly made to provide benefits of natural carbon steel wok and compatibility with flat stoves. It has a bit uneven color as it should be from high heat treatment. The other flat bottom woks either need to be pre-seasoned or have a non-stick chemical coating or flat part is too small for fast heating or not thick enough. I seasoned it once and after a few cooking, it is almost non-stick already. The color changes nicely and it looks more beautiful and unique. Most often I fry the rice and noodles with vegetables, but the big size gives endless opportunities for cooking. Highly recommended if you are looking for natural, healthy cookware and don’t expect the magic of easy handling like with non-stick chemical pans.
