Exceeds every expectation, especially ease of cleaning. Heats up and cooks ingredients uniformly (on an electric stove). Minimal use of cooking oil and clean up was effortless. Of course, being cast iron, it is heavy but worth its weight! Priced very reasonably against its competitors. I really do love this wok!

This is a very nice wok; it is LARGE and heavy.... so be sure to take that into account. I also purchased the cast iron trivet made by Lodge that is about 8 inches around. I put it in the bottom of the wok and it gives a very large cooking area for baking chicken--or even a turkey---and with the cast iron trivet in the bottom of the wok, the juices flow into the bottom of the wok and not on the food. The extra height using the trivet also allows hot air to circulate under the food for more even cooking. I would HIGHLY recommend this item.... I've used woks costing 4-5 times the price and this is the BEST!!!
