I bought this wok for my wife since the one she's using has worn out.
After a few weeks of use she said she hated it. First it is made with very thin material and that the food got burnt easily. It wasn't nonstick as it claimed. Somehow the flat bottom was designed so the whole wok is tilted when it sits flat. My wife said she doesn't like this design as it made the wok unbalanced. Finally, the edge of the wok is kind of sharp. She got scratch or cut all the time while cooking. So this is a No, No wok for her. Now I have to find another one for her.

I really liked the "Hot Wok" the first few times I used it, the edge being higher is actually a plus when "flipping food" but the third time I used it the non-stick surface burst into flames (while on the same med/high heat setting I had used the other times previously), if I had not been present the four foot high flames could have easily have burned down my apartment complex. So sad my "New Wok" is no longer usable :-(

We bought this from a discount store because my fiancee liked the shape. It ended up being unbalanced as the other reviewer stated and worse the lining started chipping from the very first use. Food burnt and stuck like crazy, very poorly made.
