Review: I can finally toss food - I just love this little wok. I have 6 woks with different handles and metals but this is now my favorite. Our standard range is not made for wok cooking. Other than the unsuitable burner temp, the height is too high to angle our arm and toss food around in a heavy 14 inch wok. I have an outdoor burner that I set low for that purpose. However, this wok is the perfect weight for me to toss food around even with my left hand while using my right to stir on my indoor range. Carbon steel hands down makes the best non-stick surface. I make all sorts of egg dishes in my other pans of the same material. Eggs are the stickiest food. I can’t wait until this pan has a well developed patina. It already has a nice 1st coat that I can make scrambled eggs on no problem. The size is perfect for a single serve lunch for 1, really for 2 but I eat a little too much protein with my rice. :) The handle is nice and sturdy. For the price it makes it a great deal.
Review: Thoroughly disappointed horrible quality rivets - Thoroughly disappointed. This is not my first wok. I was excited because it seemed very high quality and the perfect size. Unfortunately they used either aluminum or some other subpar metal as the rivets because after I got this beautiful seasoning layer on the pan I found that the once secure bowl of the wok now rattles around like a tin can. It was so sturdy before the seasoning, which is the same method I do for all my woks without issue. Very disappointed that I wasted all this time on getting the perfect seasoning just for the rivets to loosen up on me and render the pan useless.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Steel is the best wok fry pans! Perfect size
*by B***E on March 13, 2026*

After I did a 4 coat seasoning, it works great. I love this size, great for a quick small batch stir fry, cup of saute mushrooms, a quick egg omlete in the morning. Easy to keep clean & seasoned non-stick. I gave one to each of my grandkids for their college kitchens, I showed them how to keep seasoning it after every use. They said tit was a perfect size and great for so many thing. Now they understand that steel is way better than plastic coated cook wear.
