Pros & Cons
Pros
The new uncoated version is the same size and shape and looks like it will never wear out. The pan itself is decent, a little thinner than i expected and feel more like stainless steel than carbon steel. Wood and silicone are obviously fine to use, i ... Read More
If done correctly it is non stick from day one and will never rust. Many negative reviews here are most likely due to lack of knowledge of how to generally season and maintain carbon steel cookware.
The 12 pan is perfect for 3-4 people. It's thick enough to hold heat well for average stir-fry dishes. Good weight for stir frying.
This pan is great for oriental cooking. It takes about a year to fully season so be patient. Follow the directions for seasoning. Season it with an oven or oil on a stovetop.
Cons
This pan gets uneven bottom after proper seasoning, even with oil, still sticks badly. Seasoning appears to be sticking. Cheap aluminum rivets cannot remove the protective coating.
Highlights
Quality
The quality is great and it really works as a wok on my propane cooktop
I have an electric stove which works great with the flat bottom
I burned 2 pans following the instructions that came with the pan
I hated the smoke from the oil filling my kitchen even with the exhaust fan of high
Packaging/appearance
Once the time is up turn off the heat and let it cool inside the grilloven
Competitiveness
Easy to use on a modern stove without needing a wokring or any type of adapter and light enough to flip things onehanded
The handle is not as nice as this one but at less than half the price
