Summary: 4 Stars
The flat electric stove top, common for US households, is really not ideal for Chinese wok cooking so the best you can hope for is a flat bottom "wok" like this. It does seem to work a little better than the typical Teflon coated Western wok as the food tasted closer to real Chinese stir fry---food is not so wet but retains its texture. However the heat is not even and concentrates mostly at the bottom, which is not surprising considering the fact that the heat is coming from a flat surface and that there is no flame to hug the whole wok bottom. I used to have to change Western Teflon coated "wok" every two years because the heat seems to break the Teflon coating. With this wok made of steel carbon, I am expecting to be able to use it a long time since its non-stick coating comes from the oil in cooking. BTW, while it is a good idea to break in the wok, the wok will be coated with oil over time after being used so you do not have to kill yourself trying to break it in. You do need to wash off the protective oil on the surface of the wok, however, and then use it for cooking immediately. This will replace the machine oil with cooking oil to keep the wok from rusting. The wok will be sticky for the first couple of cooking though so if you plan to cook eggs, you should break it in early.
