Great ceramic Wok
I bought this wok as a replacement for a regular nonstick wok and have been using it almost everyday since. Here is what I observed.
Pros:
Until now, the ceramic nonstick finish is still flawless at this point, while the previous ceramic pan we had had signs of wear already within the 1st month. (Admittedly we were more careful with this after our previous experience) My thoughts are since the previous one was one of the 1st generation pans that showed up in the market, it seemed they have improved the toughness of the coating to last longer.
The weight is lighter than it looks. For its size it is not too heavy to be unwieldy when cooking stir fry or similar dishes. The handle has a solid feel thus you have a better grip when holding the pan.
The price at 40 USD for this type of pan is a steal. I have done some comparisons with other brands and most likely the reason for this being cheap it is relatively unknown brand at this time.
Cons
Does...
very good
Very beautiful and good quality, in the first month, it really never stick, but unfortunately, after one months,when cook some food,such as frying toufu, some parts seems a little bit stick.
I could "kiss" this wok
I have long since given up on the complete cookware sets, instead, I cherish the handful of faithful kitchenware and knives that are durable, dependable, easy to clean, and most importantly- health risk free to use.
I spent most of my childhood in the back kitchens of carry out Chinese restaurants, nothing matched, but everthing had a purpose and lasted.
Here are the things I love about this wok.
Substantial handle, easy to grip and "toss" the wok
Nicely weighted, not too heavy, but solid enough to keep the temperature evenly distributed
Food "dance" around the wok while cooking with very little oil/grease
I can rinse and wipe off the wok- something authentic Chinese kitchens do, to preserve the "seasoning" of the wok
Aesthetically, the red is perfect and beautiful.
Functionally, the bottom of this pan is carved in an intricate design that seems to distribute the heat beautifully
I can cook a decent amount of food in this wok
