Wok pan,Hybrid 12 inch Wok with Lid, PFOA Free Cookware,non stick Stainless Steel Woks & Stir-fry pans Nonstick, Dishwasher and Oven Safe, Works on Induction

I decided that 53 years old that I wanted to learn how to cook better. Now, in my opinion, nothing sets the stage for a good time like great equipment. The dot-clad system is "wipe it away" easy to clean. We use a gas range and save on natural gas always cooking on low to medium high heat, at a maximum. There's really no reason to use high heat/max flame with this lock unless you're intentionally trying to seer something. That being said, a flat cast iron griddle lives on my stove top, so I do my searing there. Overall, the aesthetic extra fantastic, the dot-clad system works really well and is super easy to clean, as long as you do it right after you eat, giving it some time to cool off. I never, never, never rinse a scalding hot pan or wok with lukewarm water. Physics are a thing, and that will work the cr@p out of your frying pan or wok. The see-through lid with the steam vent hole is sturdy, and the handle does not heat up.Overall, I think this is a fantastic wok, with clean aesthetics, awesome functionality, and super easy to clean. In my opinion, they nailed it. This wok is definitely worth the money.

If you let this wok heat up for about 2 or 3 minutes at high medium or medium heat with a little oil, you will get a great sear on anything you put in it. This wok really heats evenly, and while sometimes a bit of fond will stick, it is non-stick. The wok washes off easily, especially if you put a little water in it to sit before scrubbing. Some reviewer noted that the exposed stainless rim gets a little brown, but I have found the brown comes off easily. The after service is great too if you’ve got questions or need help. It’s just that you have to reach the company through the Amazon app. If you write directly to Dot Clad, or try to call, you emails will be returned, and your calls will not get through to a retail service person. I am really happy with this pan. And now I don’t have to have a dirty looking, burnt wok to put away in my pan draw.

This pan exceeded my expectations! The build quality is solid, the non-stick surface works beautifully, and it heats evenly across the bottom. The glass lid fits well and lets me monitor the cooking without lifting it. Perfect for stir-frying, sautéing, and even simmering soups. Cleanup is super easy too. Highly recommended if you're looking for a dependable everyday pan!

Updated Review 8/330/24:Gave 1 more star and WOULD definitely recommend this Wok. Changed the way I felt about how this Wok functioned after using BUTTER instead of olive oil. I made Fideo. Onions went golden very nicely, Fideo noodles browned up by the time they were sautéed. Took very little time to toast chili powder when added to sautéed noodles, also, the alternating addition of tomato sauce and chicken broth needed the heat raised and lowered over and over. The Wok Changed with the heat changes instantly. Also, that is the double fire ring "hot burner" on my gas stove. I was able to hold that long handle the entire time and it was cold under my bare hand the entire time. This is now my favorite Wok for making Fideo. I will not use olive oil again in the Wok. I added the picture of the shrimp I did the first time, in olive oil, that did not brown at all.So, now, the only Con is the lid.Original review:The pros:1. The wok is very pretty.2. It functions like a pan at medium heat.3. The handles stay cool.4. It cleans up well, with careful effort. I saw "scratch marks" where I stirred around in bottom portion of the wok, making the "dot clad" design disappear. I thought that was awful on the first use. When I rubbed more, with a soft and soapy, good sponge, the design reappeared. So, obviously, you need to wash it gently and firmly to remove food and oil from the design indentations.5. It is large enough to cook a portion for a family.The Cons:1. The Wok is not going to function as a wok for stirfry at that heat. It did not get hot enough to put a sear on large, dried off, shrimp, at medium heat. I used a small amount of olive oil. I think it would do better with Avocado or vegtable oil.2. You have to give attention to thorough washing to get everything out of the design indentation.3. The LID is Miserable to wash. Like the other wok I bought at the same time, water AND soap gets into the channel of the lid and is TRAPPED there. You have to run more water over the glass until the soap disappears from the channel where glass and metal are indented, then, once the soap is gone, you have to spend a fair amount of time with a dry paper towel, pressing the towel firmly at the seam of glass and metal, on the top of the lid, until you get all the water absorbed by the paper towel. The water doesn't "shake" out. It doesn't dribble out standing upright because, of course, it is stuck in that channel. You can turn the lid and whe puddle if water simply rolls with the lid and settles as a puddle when you stop moving the lid.4. If you don't get the water out of that channel, it is going to get nasty and if you use the lid while cooking, the nasty water will drip into your food.5. I did not try blow drying the lid or using the back end of a hand held vacuum sealer to try blowing out the water. In either case, having to do that is ridiculous.Would I recommend the Wok? Yes, No, and, Maybe. The Wok itself, Maybe, if you don't need high heat in your style of stirfrying. The Wok if using Avocado oil or other higher smoke point oils hive better result, then, yes. If you need to use the lid while cooking, then, it is a big, fat "NO" because, the lid is horrible to wash and get the water out of the channel where glass and metal meet, and that is just wrong.For reference, the metal and glass lid for the Instapot, and, the metal and glass lids for my other, more expensive, cookware, do NOT have water seeping under the metal rim and getting stuck between the glass and metal.

Nice, Big Stainless Steel Wok with Non-Stick Coating & Works Well Enough! You do not need to use a lot of heat to cook in this big boy and that is a plus! So learning how to cook in it is must. The non-stick dots help to keep things from sticking but the temperature control is important to pay attention to! I use a lot of different pots and pans for specific types of cooking and wanted to try this one and still working at it, but overall so far it seems to fry my rice, fry my dim sum, and want next to cook burgers, steaks and fish along the way in the near future! I'll come back and let you know how it goes! Bye for Now!

Love this pan! I’ve been looking to buy a good wok and I’m glad I bought this! Love that it comes with a lid and stays thoroughly heated on all sides. Dishwasher safe, good size and not too heavy. Easy to wash and doesn’t hold stains.

I couldn’t be more thrilled. Better price, better quality, and best functionality than its competitors. This is a real keeper. Well made, highly durable, and easy to use. Not too light, not too heavy, just right. I seasoned it per instructions, and cooked a meal in it the first night I had it. No scorching or sticking. If you use it according to included temperature guide, it will be your best go-to pan ever.
