Love this wok. It's a good sized wok, very light so it's easy on the hand and heats up very fast. Food won't stick if you first heat up the wok real good and then swirl in the oil.

I've had it for over a year now. It is indeed lot lighter than a regular make. I seasoned it and it works pretty well. It's not completely non-stick as I don't like heating oil to a very high temperature before putting food in. But the sticky parts are usually very easy to take off using a spatula, and they become crunchy once the whole pan heat up evenly, and then even easier to take off.While lots of stir fry pans have round bottom, this one has flat bottom , make it safer on the stove. One con being that it is light and the bottom tends to slip. You have to be especially careful if your stove sits in a kitchen island and make sure it does not flip over. I always grip the handle strongly when I mix and toss with spatula.
Best Deals for Download ExcelSteel 13-Inch super lightweight cast iron wok
I bought one this wok from bed & bath beyond. I just arrived today. The wok looks nice so far. I have not used to wok my dishes yet. However, I measure the wok. The top diameter is 12 and 3/4", the flat bottom is only 7 and 1/2", I wish it were a bit bigger since the diameter of my electric heating surface is 9". This wok should be deeper by half inch. The joint between interior flat bottom and wok wall should be more smoother for easier wok.I did simple comparison with my Macy brand stainless steel wok with aluminum bottom. The diameter of the aluminum bottom is 9". I boiled 2 quarts of water with both woks. With my Macy wok, it took 4 min 30 sec to boil 2 quarts of water on my Maytag MER5751BAB stove with dial on 8. The same amount of water took 3 min 30 sec to boil with this iron wok with smaller bottom, leaving some heating area uncover by the wok. This is a better heat transfer.
I will update after I cook some dishes.
Honest reviews on Download ExcelSteel 13-Inch super lightweight cast iron wok
My husband is the cook in our family and has been wanting a hammer shaped wok. He used to have one and he loved it. I went to several on-line stores looking for the perfect one for a Christmas present. After reading all of the reviews decided on this one (The discounted price had a lot to do with it!). It came right away but I waited until the big day to give it to him.He finally made his first batch of stir fry and boy, did he have fun!! He kept saying "now this is how you cook stir fry!" And I was pleasently surprised when it came to clean up. I would HIGHLY recommend this wok to anyone.
