Aroma Housewares Co. AEW-305 Electric Wok 6.5-qt. Review

I bought 2 of the electric woks.One for my college daughter and one for my own use.I had a wok many years ago, loved it, and if fact it was worn out.It gives us not only healthy choices with meat and veggies, but also less oil is used, portion control is easy and I have lost 10 pounds in a month just eating right.I gave it 4 stars and could have given it 5 but... cleaning is not easy.It can not be put into water, so I have to wipe it out first, then put soap and water on a cloth or sponge to clean it and then wipe it dry.But that is the only knock that it has.

Joyce Chen Pro Chef 14-Inch Flat Bottom Wok uncoated Carbon Steel Review

A few years ago I tried stir frying and liked it, except that I used a Joyce Chen nonstick wok that peeled after two uses.After that I got aLodge cast iron wok that was way too heavy and got discouraged and gave it away.Then I tried I a no-name carbon steel wok but was very ignorant about how to season it and could not understand why it kept rusting.Recently I have had the urge to try stir fryingagain and this time did my homework.I chose this wok because it was carbon steel, and this time learned ahead of time how to season it properly.This wok is also very sturdily made; you cannot easily bend the wok if you push on it; the handles are not loose; it is 2 mm thick; it has phenolic plastic handles that stay cool.

I have properly seasoned and been using the wok with no rust or stickiness.Learning how to season and clean made all the difference.A good education and a well-made wok are an unbeatable combination!!

See some of ther other wok posts for good seasoning tips.I followed the directions that came with the wok and had good results.

Joyce Chen Pro-Chef 14-Inch Round Bottom Wok with Wood Handles Review

This is heavy, solid, and BIG. Lightly ridged sides keep food out of the oil. It's sturdy, well-made, generously sized -- this is a real treat to cook with.
This is a rounded bottom wok. It's best used for cooking on a gas range. If you cook on electric, you'll want the flat-bottomed wok. It also needs to be "seasoned" they way you would season cast iron. If you do that, you will end up with a cook surface that cleans up beautifully. However, you do have to be aware of this when you scrub it clean - don't use anything too abrasive or you'll have to re-season it.
I have been nothing but pleased with the performance of this pan. It heats up well, cooks beautifully, and the seasoning has made it lightly non-stick (just like with cast iron) and so cleaning up isn't a major chore. I heartily recommend this wok for anyone cooking over gas. I love mine, and I think you will love it, too.

Product Description:
Offering traditional construction for time-tested and tasty stir fry meals, this 14-inch round-bottom wok from Joyce Chen is a great choice for high-heat cooking, especially on gas stoves. It's made of uncoated carbon steel, which is optimal for rapid, even heating and cooling--a must for any stir-fry. A few doses of oil dried over low heat will season your wok and seal the surface, creating a natural nonstick patina. Once seasoned, this heavy weight carbon steel pan will render superior cooking performance for life. Safety features include the addition of a blond-wood skillet handle, which doesn't conduct heat, and a wooden helper handle to help distribute weight, preventing accidents when you're moving or carrying your wok from the stove to the table. Hand wash only.

West Bend 79586 6-Quart Capacity Electric Wok Review

Only recently did I start cooking Asian food, after a co-worker had brought in some food that she had made. She told me how to make the food, and after trying it myself, I realized how EASY it is. Anyway... about the Wok... I bought it about a month ago at a local kitchen supply store, and have been really happy with it. It heats up instantly, doesnt stick, etc.
The reason I left out 1 star is because of a bad design. It's very hard to hold on to the handles when taking the food out of the Wok. They should have implemented one big handle, like on a pan. Secondly, their temperature control is sort of hidden under the wok, makes it a BIT hard to change the temperature... but it's not a big problem.
Conclusion: If you want a great electric wok, for the price, this is defenitely a great one. I have no others that I've used before, but compared to any of my other pans/pots, anything... this is hands down the best for the buck :)

Zojirushi EP-RAC50 Gourmet d'Expert 1350-Watt Electric Skillet Review

I bought this pan in March, and now that I have had it for almost a year I feel I can honestly say, 'It does everything as advertised'!
It can get REALLY HOT, or simply keep the meal warm.
No more 'hot spots' is one of my favorites!The pans heat evenly.
I love having two pans. I have used it for everything from soup to stir fry.
It has earned the title of 'Super Pan' in our house!

Town Food Service 14 Inch Mandarin Flat Bottom Wok Review

This is a nice sized, hand hammered wok. I use it on a turkey fryer and it works very well. The flat bottom is essential, as you can set it down if needed to do other things. My only complaint is that the wooden handle is held in with one pin and it was cracked through when I received it. It is loose and I will need to fix it myself at some point. Other than that, very nice.
