 "Great wok" 2010-06-10
By E. Cimino (Hagerstown, MD USA)
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" 2010-05-23
By H. Zhong (USA)
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" 2010-05-17
By Susan Bales
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" 2010-04-10
By Thomas Dickhut
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.

 "Stir frying in a rusty wok isn't my idea of cooking" 2010-04-04
By Sherene Silverberg (Norfolk, VA United States)
Despite following the seasoning instructions to the letter, this wok rusted. I scrubbed off the rust and again seasoned the wok. Still had rust. It's horrendous to clean. Everything sticks and won't come off. Don't waste your money on this pan.
