I needed a large saute pan with a lid.. It heats evenly. Not heavy. Food doesn't stick. I evenly put a rack in the bottom and steamed broccoli. Perfect. I like the clear lid.
Amazing pan! Cooking healthy for a large family just became so much easier with this Cuisinart 14" flat bottom Wok. I have a glass top stove and this pan having the flat center makes it a perfect piece if cookware on the glass too stove.
This product only has encapsulated aluminum at the base, so it did not heat evenly. I was looking for a wok that can heat evenly while having great heat retention. Unfortunately this is not the product that I was looking for. I had to return it.
I love this pan!! Except when I am cooking on an electric stove. The pan and range retains a lot of heat and makes it very hard to not over cook or burn meat. I actually pre cook all my meat on a nonstick pan then move to this Stir fry pan. It really helps bring out the flavors. On a gas range, this pan works wonders!! Grr... electric stoves!!
