From an induction owner..
Product is authentic Chinese wok as used by the pros so all good in that respect and cheap as chips. Brilliant and no complaints. A steamer I had from same company equally high quality authentic etc.Amazing transfer of heat from home induction hob into this thing. WOW. Arguably more intense on the bottom and than the big restaurant gas burners. Mines a flat induction hob nothing flashy and on the smallest ring to fit the flat base. Its tricky to season properly on induction, but can be done by putting the sides of the wok onto the induction surface. The heat transfer is so good however, I've had this literally glowing red on full blast during the seasoning process to my surprise so be very careful. Id HIGHLY RECOMMEND season on gas round a friends or on a bed of coals.No need for max heat on induction here when cooking, I prefer a slow heat of wok initially , then maybe medium to high for cooking. Again, absolute insane levels of heat going into the flat base of the wok so be careful, but also a revelation to me at least, to have that power on hand for authentic wok experience.10/10

A bargain wok that should last a very long time if kept correctly
Fab wok, don't pay 20-30 quid for a wok or a wok with non stick coating (teflon isn't good for the high heat cooking that a wok produces anyway). This is a REAL wok that should outlast any of those woks providing you look after it with love and dedication (yes i used those words for a wok). Meaning you should never wash it with soap, never scrub it either. Just leave it soak in warm/hot water and you can wash it with your hands or nails frankly if seasoned properly. If you do this and maintain that seasoning it will knock spots of any non stick teflon coated junk wok once you season it, it just gets better and better. I've had mine for about 18 months and couldn't be happier with it. GIven it's carbon steal it WILL rust badly if water is left on it. I rub coconut butter over it after use to keep it in tip top condition.I also got the 14 inch version but I hardly use it. The 10inch is perfect for my cooking but that too is of the same standard. Its more wobbly given its 14 inches but it too is a fabulous wok. The handle is solid on both and I mean solid, no give what so ever which cannot be said for a lot of branded woks costing 20-30 quid. Like I say just buy this, its a no nonsense, does what its meant to wok and is a REAL bargain

Dangerous handle
The handle is both too heavy for the rest of the wok and the wooden part is too short, where it joins the pan is a metal bracket that makes up the first couple of inches of the handle.. This gets red hot and I've burned my hand more than once

Great Wok
Quality wok and a handy size for smaller meals. Easy to season and to keep clean afterwards. It can be a bit unbalanced on my hob but as I do not use it unattended that has not been a problem. The handle is comfortable and does not get too hot.

seems like a decent wok but its unstable and leans to one side.
im enjoying using this wok which heats up fast for stir fries and is perfect size.but the handle makes the wok slightly lean to one side so if u use induction hob it may not sit perfectly flat on the surface.its not really non stick so you have when cleaning just put abit of water and a brush then back on the hob.heat up until all the water gone then coat it in whatever oil you use.

Very useful.
When this first arrived I thought I had made mistake as it seemed very small. I considered returning it.However it has proved very useful. Handy for one person or to supplement a larger wok when cooking for more people.It is made of mild steel and will rust if not thoroughly dried. It has a flat bottom for cooking on an electric hob. It cooks well and heats quickly. It is now starting to acquire a nice dark patina of seasoning giving a natural non stick surface. Generally do not scour clean.

10" is not big enough for a "Full English"
I ordered a 14" Wok for home use and this , 10" for camping.I haven't got around to seasoning or using the the 14" one yet .This one is a good dietary aid as it can't take two of everything for a "Full English".Also the side walls are a bit steep - but what do I know!All the experts say get a 14" and they are right.Excellent piece of kit but beware the handle and it's mount.The handle mount is substantial and will :-tip the Wok when nearly emptytake a lot of temperature away (when trying to season the wok)burn your index finger and thumb if you try a four finger grip.The wooden handle is adequate but use a three finger grip (curl your little pinky as a stopper).Overall - well pleased
