 Hot Enought to Actually Stir-Fry Food! August 26, 2008
Paul Murphy
I love this wok. For the past five years I've lived in houses with electric stoves, which do not get hot enough quickly enough to actually stir-fry with. I purchased this item based upon these Amazon reviews, and it's been terrific. The wok heats quickly to a very high heat, and (almost as important) cools fairly rapidly, as well. I've broken out all of my old Chinese cookbooks and am having a blast.
I have to agree, however, with the other reviewer who has complained about the way that the wok bowl attaches to the base. It's very difficult to reattach the wok once you've removed it for cleaning, and I'm afraid that I'll twist the little handle right off at some point. So like that other reviewer I've stopped detaching the wok from the base altogether and am cleaning 'em both. (Which is why this product gets 4 stars rather than 5.)
Excepting that, the wok seems to be quite sturdy and well-made. It's got a good heft to it, and the glass lid fits well. This wok is also quite stylish, too.
While cooking with the Breville Electric Wok isn't quite the same as using a regular wok over a gas flame, it's pretty darned close. I highly recommend this item.
Substantial Wok August 12, 2008

Many Chinese cooking books state that an electric wok will not be able to get hot enough for proper cooking. This wok proves that to be false.
This is not a cheap wok. It is very heavy and solidly build. It gets very hot. It's been easy to clean, and we've cooked with it often. No complaints.

We've been cooking with this wok for 7 months and it is great! I was so impressed with both the quality and performance. It is a great size and gets so hot. Everything we've used it for has come out great. The base is a bit of a pain to put back on but after a few times I've got the hang of it. I would definitely buy it again and I think it would be a great gift!
Very pleased with purchase of my Wok July 17, 2008

This was my first experience using an electric Wok. It performed better than I had expected! It now is a pleasure to make my stir fry meals. I was surprised at how easy it was to clean after using. I would recommend this to anyone serious about buying a Wok.
