Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Helen Chen's Asian Kitchen 14-inch Carbon Steel Flat Bottom Lidded Wok Set
Customer Review: People who complain about rust are idiots
Summary: 5 Stars
First off are people blind? It states "Carbon Steel" which means it will rust if not properly taken care of. First you need to season it and if you don't know how to do that you don't know how to cook and you need to read a little. Second, for most cookware it is best to rub down and give a light coat of oil(corn or soy) on the inside of any cookware. This is very important with steel or iron cookware. If you do these simple things, don't cook on too high of a temperature honestly most cookware will last for year and just decent cookware can last a lifetime.Customer Review: Professional grade wok for half the cost
Summary: 5 Stars
I honestly felt like I was stealing from somebody when I clicked the "purchase" button. After researching the best equipment for Asian cooking, the experts concluded that the carbon steel flat bottom wok scored top marks with professional chefs. The idea is to season the wok (you can find out how to do this on about.com) instead of purchasing a teflon coated one. I cannot emphasise how important this step is if you want to create the perfect Singapore Noodles or Chow Mein! You will be cooking like a pro in no time, for almost no cost at all.Customer Review: I hate this Wok....it even rust....!!!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
This is one of the worst online purchase I have ever made. This wok is light weight and you literally smell it... as it burns.....forget about seasoning ....it rust....I made the mistake of leaving food in it by just sticking it in the refrigerator....well it rusted and I had to throw out the food....maybe I should have thrown out this wok too.
I do not recommend this product....and believe me....I really looked forward to having it....well it sucks....real bad.
Customer Review: Great Wok!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great wok. The carbon steel is easy to season, making it virtually non-stick (without the chemicals), the flat bottom means it is stable while sitting on a burner, and the heft keeps it from slipping around. The domed lid is great for steaming, and there is ample space inside for a bamboo steamer.
I priced these in retail stores in the area, as well as other outlets online, and this sells for at least a competitive price.
Customer Review: Not what I expected
Summary: 1 Stars
This product was not what I expected, the pan rust when sits with out being use for a period of time. Amazon has alway sell good quality products and I have never had a complain with anything I ever purchase from Amazon; the size is perfect and the delivery was excelence, but the product itself doesn't live to its expectations. I cannot recomend this item to anyone.
