Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
This is the shape and material of the traditional round bottom wok, used for generations, and with great success we might add. Yes, you do have to season it or it will rust. However, over time it will become virtually non-stick and in fact age and use will improve this piece, much like your grandmother's cast iron skillet. Carbon steel is an excellent choice for high heat cooking, and the wood handles allow you to move the wok around without burning yourself.

4 out of 5 stars Best classic Wok for the price, but..   February 8, 2008
Make sure you season it constantly. As another reveiew mentioned, works well with gas cooking like our previous Wok did.

The only reason we are not using it much is that it is too big for a standard sized stove.


4 out of 5 stars Not Round Bottom, But Good For A Flat Bottom Wok   February 26, 2006
  7 out of 7 found this review helpful

Juat a "heads-up" for those of you looking for a nice Round Bottom Wok. This wok is listed as "round bottom", so I ordered one for use on my gas top stove. I specifically wanted a round bottom wok as I not only believe they cook more evenly, but I have a wok ring to use with it. Amazon suggested I buy a wok ring to go with this wok. When it came, it was FLAT BOTTOM! I was so disappointed, but ordered another (which shipped very quickly, thank you Amazon) and the second one was ALSO FLAT BOTTOM! I returned it, too. I am taking a break from the order-and-return cycle, but hope to shop again here with Amazon. I just won't order the Joyce Chen Round Bottom Wok...although the quality looks superb.


5 out of 5 stars Wok this Way!   March 12, 2003

This is heavy, solid, and BIG. Lightly ridged sides keep food out of the oil. It's sturdy, well-made, generously sized -- this is a real treat to cook with.

This is a rounded bottom wok. It's best used for cooking on a gas range. If you cook on electric, you'll want the flat-bottomed wok. It also needs to be "seasoned" they way you would season cast iron. If you do that, you will end up with a cook surface that cleans up beautifully. However, you do have to be aware of this when you scrub it clean - don't use anything too abrasive or you'll have to re-season it.

I have been nothing but pleased with the performance of this pan. It heats up well, cooks beautifully, and the seasoning has made it lightly non-stick (just like with cast iron) and so cleaning up isn't a major chore. I heartily recommend this wok for anyone cooking over gas. I love mine, and I think you will love it, too.
