Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Helen Chen's Asian Kitchen Flat Bottom Carbon Steel 14-Inch 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.
