I love this wok, but it's huge and heavy, a little too big for my current stove, actually. Still, I use it fairly often. I got it on sale for $99... kind of wishing Staub would go back on sale, their pans are wonderful, just not cheap.

Got this Staub wok a week ago and it cooks my food very well. The food also retains heat nicely for a good 20 mins with the fire off and when the cover is on. The food still "sticks" to the wok but I'm sure as time goes by, it will develop its non-stick nature.

This works great on cook tops that are challenges for a conventional wok. And... the inside is round on the bottom, not flat so traditional cooking is possible. The cast iron is thin enough that it responds fairly quickly to changes in heat; however, not as fast as a traditional wok.

I bought this wok after comparing 3 different wok. I choose this because of the weight and the size of the wok. I just like the design and the look of it, looks much more like my mum's beat up wok except nicer.

lodge pro logica bit heavier and deep. may be just meant to be on the stove top all the time. the other french made a bit on shallow side, if just for stir fry vegetable for 2 may be ok. with staub, i've done fried rice for 4, 1 medium size steam fish, use with 10" bamboo steamer for shumai, just name it. I love mine. Plus the matte black one goes well with my other cast iron collection.

An answer to my requirement for healthy cooking. I like the depth and size, just nice for fried rice for 3, steamed fish and stir fry vegetables. Cleaning is an ease, no need to worry about seasoning or rust. However, it takes longer time to heat up the cooking oil but I just love cooking in it. Great display on my oven top too.

The Staub wok is ready to use immediately.

Staub enameled cast iron products are highly durable. They do not discolor or rust, they resist chipping, and do not require seasoning.

The interior, as well as the exterior surfaces are enameled iron. The durable black ---matte--- enamel interior, as with all Staub cast iron, doesn't need seasoning. The more you use your Staub product, the better it gets! Oils used when cooking will penetrate the pores of the ---matte enamel--- and create a natural, smooth, nonstick surface, just like a finely seasoned non-enameled iron pan. The smooth enameled exterior is easier to clean.

Staub made a wonderfully functional design decision to coat the interior with a matte surface, while coating the exterior of the pan with the traditional smooth surface.

Its BIG - I love cooking in it as I can make large quantities and save the leftovers for another day. I own an Industrial stove s it works for me but it may be too big for normal stoves tops. It is also too big to clean in the sink. I gave it 4 stars because the its not entirely non stick. I have seasoned it twice and hopefully over time the surface will get better.

Nice deep wine red color, big size wok, great quality. What else does a chef want?
