this thing is huge! because it has a slightly flatter bottom than most woks, it can hold more! which comes in handy when my boyfriend is making his fried rice for me and all of my family!

although i received the first one with a deep scratch in the non-stick, Amazon quickly and easily replaced it.. the second one had tiny scratches around the top edge of the wok, but nothing that would deter cooking in it so i kept it. makes me wonder if that's why they had these "on sale" but still, it's a great wok.

I love this Wok i've had seviral Woks over time and this has surpassed them all in quality and workmanship.. And i like it that's it's made in USA.. I hate buyin cheap products for the sake of it being cheap..I'm a strict Ovo-Vegetarian,& it makes great scrambled eggs.. rated 5***** fer me

There must be a reason why I bought the exact same Wok after my original one was accidentally scratched up with a knife...

I do everything in it: boil pasta, mix cookie dough (it doesn't stick--so although there isn't any delicious cookie dough, cleaning up is a breeze), stir-fry vegetables... The flat part on the bottom is good for electric stovetops; the curves are curvy enough to make stirring simple. Plus, I respect the Nordic Ware company--not made overseas!

My girlfriend and I absolutely love a good stir-fry. Beef, chicken, seafood, it doesn't matter. We eat it all. This pan does a great job at cooking and browning the vegetables perfectly.

I thought the pan was too thin and might not be able to withstand high heating, but I was wrong. I have been using it since I got it and it has been wonderful each time. I have several woks to choose from, but this one is my favorite. I have a large family and I cook dinner 6-7 times a week as well as being in the kitchen a lot on weekends. I used it mainly for stir frying and deep frying, like eggrolls and fried chicken. It is a deep pan. One can fill a lot of vegetables and meat in it. I don't recommend metal utensils just because it can scratch it. I want to preserve my pan for as long as possible. It is a wonderful wok and works better than I originally thought it would.

Excellent wok great heating surface, and very large. Works well on electric stove and cleans up quickly. Would highly recommend.

Anyone looking for a Wok, look no further! This is a good quality, lightweight wok for an excellent price. The base of this 12 inch wok fits almost perfectly on the large size burner of my stove. Best of all it's "Made in USA." I've been using it for a few months now and am completely pleased!

This wok is about as good as it gets for the price. Well-made and solid feel makes this a versatile favorite for cooking many family meals. Quality Deep wok/pan is a good size for family or someone that entertains. It is big (7-quart capacity), but easy to cook with flat bottom making it stable on stove. Non stick coating is easy to clean. Had this for almost 5 years and buying another one. Need to replace since Teflon/non-stick is beginning to wear and scratch, but we use it a lot (3-4 + times a week on average) with a family of five. We lucked out and had a Calphalon pan lid match perfectly, making it even more versatile (Best Pop corn pan ever). Great Wok on its own, if you can match a lid with it, will be possibly the best pan you will ever have for a family. Made in the USA!

I love the shape of this pot but it is a bit larger than 12 inches. I actually bought it as a replacement for a much loved pot that came as part of a set and I have not actually been able to part with the much loved pot because this one does not have a cover. I have hunted unsucessfully for a cover large enough for it and even went so far as to contact the manufacturer who informed me they do not make covers in the size of this pot. If I could find a cover I would have given it 5 stars.

The Nordic wok was large, but much lighter than I expected. It also had a warped bottom. Unfortunately we needed the flat bottom to match the flat-top stove. The pan rocks on the burner and cooks unevenly.
