The wok heats up fast and is easy to wash.Searched for a multi layer small wok for a long time, This is small , practical, easy to clean and should hold up .Only wish they offered a similar sized glass lid as an option.just rightProducts was worth the money met my expectations and then some.Easy to use and clean.I bought this wok in both 11" and 12" back in 2017 and they still look and cook like new, even though I stir-fry about three times per week. These woks are solid and thicker than the standard thin teflon lined woks that flake off and don't hold heat. The non-stick surface is not a coating as such because it is ingrained throughout the wok metal and will not flake. Cleaning is a breeze and nothing really stays stuck even when the hot spot on my burner leaves burned food stains.I love these pans so much that I tried to find pots and pans from the same maker, but not much luck. My best stovetop pans previously were Calphalon that I purchased 50 years ago and still use all the time. The Calphalon pots are burn resistant, but definitely NOT non-stick. I believe these no-name woks are from Korea where they understand stir-frying and apparently do not accept the low grade woks we get in America. So thanks to Amazon for selling these superb woks! I don't know what the bad reviews about flaking and thin metal are talking about. These are the thickest woks I've used in many years of stir-frying. I actually don't mind washing these woks because they clean up so well, which makes me more likely to use them. And the cooking surface still is excellent after four years of daily use. I highly recommend these woks. One of my best cooking purchases ever....Great buy. Very light and easy to clean.It is so durable, easy to clean, and lightweight. I like it so much, I ordered another one in a different size for my kitchen. A fantastic non-stick work. I used it everyday for everything.
