Don't waste your money on this. - Reviewed on 2006-08-30

Owned it for about a year. The nonstick coating has already started chipping off ever since a couple of months old. It sticks sometimes. So, it's not exactly nonstick. I have never used any hard tools on it. But the quality is horrible. Calphalon no longer the brand name for the quality. Worst of all, I sent it back under the so called life time warranty. But I haven't received it for over a month now. I am asking myself, why I spent so much money for such a piece of junk with no warranty at all!!!

It's an OK wok. But, don't expect miracles. Despite all the marketing superlatives about the non-stick surface, this one started to peel in spots like my other Calphalon pans. Oh well...

This wok is heavy and unbalanced - it can tip while on the element.

The long handle is thick and uncomfortable, and its solid weight is probably what unbalances the wok. Lifting it up is difficult with one hand and trying to shift the food to a plate is a dangerous task.

The flat bottom isn't wide enough to really be stable or to capture enough heat for the high temperature required for stir-frying. If I wanted to sauté, I'd have gotten a sauté pan.

The lid is also heavy and difficult to put anywhere. You need lots of counter space.

As well, this wok just isn't large enough for stir-frying for more than two people.
