臻三环 ZhenSanHuan Chinese Hand Hammered Iron Woks and Stir Fry Pans, Non-stick, No Coating, Carbon Steel Pow (36CM, BlueBlack Seasoned with help handle)

This is the best wok I’ve ever owned. I’ve had at least five of them. I could never get them seasoned properly, even with hours of research and dozens of attempts. Everything stuck and they were nearly impossible to clean. Not this one. This wok has performed beautifully right out of the box. And the presentation was exceptional. The wok is gorgeous, I love the blue color and if you use it properly the blue seasoning stays intact. It has continued to be virtually non-stick even though I ruined part of the finish the first time I cooked with it. Do not take lightly the warning to not use acidic ingredients. I have not used it a lot but it makes me happy every time I do. I would buy this again without a second thought. And there is a possibility I might since the finish got messed up from my error. They are not cheap but I feel worth every cent. I am someone who loves to cook and I buy the best of every pan and utensil I can find - it makes cooking more enjoyable having the best tools for the job. I purchased the handle cover, it fits perfectly and I’m glad I chose to get it. It is on the heavy side - but I am not using it in a manner where that is a problem for me. The size I chose is just a bit too big for my needs, however, that is much better than too small. I value that it is handmade and hope that the artisans are compensated well for their work.

I am very picky in selecting kitchenware for home use. I don’t want to call my self a snob, just very cautious when you read about how “great” items are, but this Wok has exceeded my expectations. It is perfect to cook anything you want, from stir fry to eggs without the hassle of sticking to the surface. Follow the directions and perfection. One thing to remember, always clean it as directed and oil it after use and you will have a lifetime of success.

This wok is awesome! I bought the blue black version to so that I dont have to do the seasoning. I cleaned it with detergent and hot water before cooking some veggies to remove any residue from the protective layer on the wok. So far I haven’t had any issues with non acidic stir-fry dishes; it’s non-stick which makes cleaning very easy. I know this wok is very expensive, and it took me a while to pull the trigger, but it turned out to be the best wok that I’ve owned. It has the perfect shape as well as a good balance of weight and thickness for heat-retention; it’s just very comfortable to cook with it. Additionally it doesn't seem rust as easily as other brands; I always have issues with the back getting rusty, but not with this one. Overall, I highly recommend this wok.

This one is good enough all the rank of amount of people to use it . it is nice to stir fry and saute the vegetable and meat. it could use as frying pan and wok both . the quality of the wok actually is good as well. it has prints in the wok that can tell you this item is hand forged by people . China used make alot of cheap and low quality item but not this one . I was suprise how nice it is. even I can use my left hand to hold it up . not as some cast iron that too heavy to move it. the meat making by this wok really savory . zesty . tender , if you use it in right way. It can company your whole life . No Joke!

I received my wok today, the pre-seasoned 36 cm with helper handle. It is beautiful. I am very pleased. As reported, it is quite heavy and certainly not an easy toss to flip food, but that’s OK with me. Unless you have a special wok burner, stuff isn’t going to scorch. The surface is very smooth with minor ripples from the hammering. I purchased another hammered wok from China, the maker Grace Young mentioned in her cookbooks. It was about $100 less but as nice as it is, it is not as nice as this new one is. It is a true work of art and worth the price. I can understand why this company was back-ordered for 2 years. This style of wok is hard to find and may disappear one day, but this will last far longer than my lifetime. Updates on cooking will follow. Update: after a year of use several times a week, this is still a 5 star wok. I wouldn't change a thing about it. I use this on a larger home stove gas burner and on an outside wok burner. It is still big and heavy but honestly unless you have a special burner, you won't be tossing you food because the heat doesn't require it. Other comments have mentioned bad metal and rusting. Those opinions only show ignorance of understanding carbon steel or cast iron and the simple maintenance it requires. The bottom line is that this wok is not for everyone. However, if you desire heirloom quality and a fine cooking tool, this is your wok. I would purchase one again without hesitation if I lost mine.

Really a nice pan. I've tried French copper, Russian titanium, but only iron and cast iron are real nonstick low maintenance pans. You need a gas stove with a big flame, but dinner will be ready in seconds. The pan is beautiful, a complement to the workers who made it. You have to season it, but then it is the easiest and best cooking you will ever do. If this one gets lost I will get another one, even with the tariffs.

I must say this wok is totally worth the price, I bought the seasoned one and seasoned it again after I received it following the instructions, it turned out beautifully and truly nonstick, I had quite a few iron woks, nothing is even close to this one. The quality is beyond my expectation. It's heavy but I have no problem using it. It has NO coating, the reviews that's saying the coating came off please have some common sense, if you cook something acidic like tomatoes, lemon juice, the seasoning will come off, you just need to reseason it so it turns blueblack again, and the reviews thats saying it rusts, come one, it's iron! You need to dry it and oil it after each use! Otherwise it will rust! If you are new to iron woks please do some reading before you buy it or give bad reviews, you need to learn how to take care of it first. It's heavy and it's in the product description, its 4 to 5 pounds if it's too heavy for you don't buy it.

Wok is not round, doesn't sit right in my wok burner because the wok is not round. Large hump on back side of wok. aside from this it cooks well. Manufacturer has confirmed it is their wok and it is normal for the odd shape. They claim it is designed for tossing ingredients, that is all well if you don't intend to ever sit it down in a wok burner. I was aware a lid wouldn't fit the shape and expected that but I at least expected the bottom to be round enough for it to sit right. For the price disappointed with the shape. Ordered a different high end brand and it fits my burner perfectly.
