Product Description

Iron Chef cookware is produced using a new proprietary casting technology that enables the production of lightweight, thin walled cast iron cookware. The casting is not as brittle as conventional cast iron and can be cast into thicknesses that are less than half as thick. Each piece weighs about half as much as its traditional counterpart. The key benefits of cast iron cookware are heat distribution, good temperature control and good heat retention without the uncomfortable excess weight. This 14 Inch Wok is a good choice for preparing Asian stir fry dishes.

I bought this wok despite the reviews. There was a blemish in the interior wok, that appeared like a crack but didn't go all the way through. I imagine that there was not enough metal in the mold when it was cast and then most of that flaw was ground out as a normal step in finishing the wok. I can see how such a blemish, if more severe could result in a crack. I am hoping that the blemish will not get worse with use. I have heard that some of these new light weight cast iron woks can crack if cold water is added to a hot wok in cleaning. It certainly seems stronger than the tradition thin round bottomed cast iron wok I own.

The wok split the first time it was used. Piece of trash. Weighed down the garbage bag well, however.

This item started rusting after first use. I seasoned pan as recommended & it continues to rust. Food sticks even if pan is oiled. DO NOT RECOMMEND! I feel like I flushed gopod money down the drain.
