My husband, who has a culinary degree, does not rush out to purchase items. He did decide, however, that it was time for hm to replace his 20 year old wok. We've looked long and hard. I wanted to purchase a $240 carbon wok from a local store. He wanted to find something more replace. Enter Over stock. We like the weight of the wok. Though Cast Iron, it is a lightweight Cast Iron, making it easy for me to handle as well as my husband. The wok comes pre-seasoned, which I am familiar with from a previous purchase. This works quite well. Although I had a bias that all pans must be seasoned, the preseasoned version works equally as non-preseaqsoned. This is a great value and a good wok.

i would recommend this to others, it is a old style cast iron, which means the pan heat evenly, and is more healthy because you won't eat teflon layer that exist in other non-sticking frypans. note: even-though this is super thin, this pan weight pretty heavy. 13 inch is actually quite large for some applications.

I WAS LOOKING FOR A CAST IRON WOK WHEN I FOUND THIS WONDERFUL PAN. IT'S CONSTRUCTION IS CAST IRON BUT IS A LIGHTER WEIGHT AND DOES NOT LOSE THE QUALITY OF CAST IRON COOKING. IN MY OLDER UMMMM OLDER AGE I WANTED TO HAVE THE QUALITY OF CAST IRON BUT NOT THE HEAVY WEIGHT THIS PAN DOES THE TRICK FOR ME. THE QUALITY OF HEATING SURFACE IS EXCELLENT.

I bought this wok because of hating the non-stick cookware that is usually scratched after it is used for a while. This wok is big and deep enough for stir fry. But I wanna say some disadvantages for this product first, it is not pre-seasoned as discribed. I though the wok is pre-seasoned but the thing is that the wok is still sticky when cooking. then, I use heating elements for cooking. The wok is supposed to be heated evenly and quickly. In fact, the bottom of the wok is burning but the edge is still cool. So it is not a good feature. finally, it seems to be rusty after 3 week usage. I did dry it with towel each time after cooking and cover it with vegetable oil. In sum, to avoid Telfon, it might be a choice

Works amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Now my husband likes to cook stir fry for me. I'm a very happy customer.

I am pleased with the wok. It has a nice sturdy feel to it, without being heavy. Heats great on my induction cooktop. I seasoned it with a thin film of oil in the oven for 30 minutes before using, just because it's cast iron - it's my rule. Had to remind the kid not to use soap when washing it and to dry it thoroughly after washing. So far, so good.

good wok. sturdy and heavy but not too heavy for a short, weakling like myself. present for my husband. he loves it. appreciated it being pre-seasoned. says it retains heat well.

I have never really seasoned cast iron before, and thought I'd be ok since this was pre-seasoned. I researched taking care of cast iron, and tried to take good care of it but failed. I guess it could be user-error, and might work better for someone who is more familiar with cast iron... but it was too heavy and hard to wash and ended up rusty within a couple months. The price seemed pretty good and I'm glad I tried it anyway.

This wok is great! On the smaller side for a wok, but perfect if you are cooking for four or less. Claims to be pre seasoned and it is lightly seasoned. Not enough to bring out the true non stick qualities of cast iron though. After using it a few times it is truly non stick now. Heats evenly, retains heat well, great purchase!

This is a gift so I haven't used it but it looks very nice. The one I was originally looking at weighed 14 pounds empty, and I think this one will be much easier to use as it's not as heavy.

It heats up very quickly and evenly and gave my foot a much nicer crisp char than my other pans. It does take some doing to season it and a lot of color comes off when I do. I cooked once with it when I thought I was done cleaning the inside but a metallic smell came up when I was cooking and a LOT more black came off when I continued to wipe it after I cooked the first time. The pan has become mostly silvery grey rather than the deep black after wiping. I'm not sure if this is what's supposed to happen my other cast iron woks stayed black....

• Please tell us about the quality of the product. very light and thin for a cast iron wok.

This is a lightweignt ast iron pan, clean-up is a cinch . I'ts easy enough to lift with one hand and it heats up very quickly on my small apartment electric stove.Its a pretty big pan. when I use it I can only use one other burner simultaneously - which is fine forme. I only wish it came with a cover, I don't have one big enough for it.

• How is the quality of the product? excellent

best wok ive ever purchased! light weight and cooks to perfection.

• Did the description onsite accurately describe the product? yes

This is the perfect Wok. The light weight cast iron is a plus. When I decided to buy a new wok I did not even know a cast iron one existed. There is perfect heat distribution with this one. The size is perfect, not small and not too large. Ease of cooking and I love the steel handle and holder.
