 Great wok! March 30, 2008

I have been using the Le Creuset Wok for about 2 months now and I love it. I use it to make Chinese stir fry, but I have also used it to steam items and make fried chicken. The heat on the wok, never really went up to the temperature I needed it to be at for the fried chicken, but it did the job nonetheless. It's been great for stir frying and for frying whole fish. I haven't had any problems with my food sticking. I had some problems when I first used it, but I have been spraying a small bit of olive oil and wiping it all over the surface of the wok after each use and cleaning. That does a great job of seasoning the wok and I have not had any issues with food sticking since I have started doing this. The wok is very heavy so it doesn't move when cooking, but it makes it hard to clean. You definitely need two hands to clean. No problems with the handles so far, but I'm confident that the lifetime warranty will come in handy if I have any issues.
Fantastic Wok December 10, 2007

I was not sure this wok would measure up to my standards of Chinese cooking. I have two other traditional Chinese steel woks that I use a lot. But, what I found with this wok is that, even though the heat source doesn't have to be on high, the mass of iron in this wok generated much more heat and my Chinese dishes came out fantastically. I have been totally shocked at how this wok performed.
The surface needs to be gently seasoned, as do the surfaces of Le Creuset's grill pans, but, once that is done, food rarely sticks to it (or, the grill pans). I usually let some water soak in the pan after I've taken the food out, and after that, stuck-on food easily come off. I highly recommend this pan.
Wok's Up! May 2, 2007

We owned the original Le Creuset wok with matching metal lid and used it quite often for many years until the handle broke. It then became a little more difficult to use so our stir fry cooking took a back seat for about 6 months. Yes, we did procrastinate returning the wok to Le Creuset but extremely glad they did not... we had a replacement wok back in less than 5 weeks! No muss, no fuss, and a very pleasant exchange from start to finish. We have quite a few Le Creuset pots, frying pans, stoneware, etc... items and never had cause to return any but it's nice to know they stand behind their warranty when needed. BTW, they sent the newer version of the wok with the glass lid when they could have just sent the original metal lid back... nice touch! Quality, looks and a great warranty, what more can you ask for? ...and yes, we're back to stir frying a lot more often!

I have used this wok on a flat top range for 6 months now - it is great. Does not stick, easy to clean, nice to look at. It is large so I hang it on a dual coat hook in the kitchen - which works great....
 Broken Handle November 8, 2006

When we received this beautiful wok we opened the box and the handle was broken...it was laying next to the wok.We sent it back and asked for a replacement but they were out of the color 'flame' at that time so we just got a refund.
There must be some type of weakness in the handles on these woks...So beware.
