This wok is a substantial gauge stainless steel and looks great. The handle is sturdy and permits a secure grip for tossing the stir fry food. The partial flat bottom allows use on ranges without a curved wok burner grate. the 14" diameter is large and allows cooking larger portions without worrying about spilling food.
I love this pan. The base is small enough to fill the entire surface of the cooktop. The side handle is must. The long handle could have been smaller or had less of a curve. It makes it very stylish but hard to store.
I love the size, and the feel, and its beautiful!. The only thing I can say is after one use, the finish inside is spotty on the very bottom, and I have not figured out how to get rid of it! I love how it cooked!
