Ordered 2 of them and both were scratched
I ordered the first one and returned it because there were 2 scratches on the non-stick coating. I returned it to amazon and ordered another one. Again there were 2 scratches on the non-stick coating. Not sure if this was just a bad batch of if there's a quality control problem with Scanpan.

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my daughter with her family of 5.. It makes a lot and she says it gets really hot like a wok should..Cleanup is a breeze.. She is very happy with this...she makes more Asian style food because of it..Very nice quality.
Best wok ever!!!!
I cook with the wok almost every day. I have thrown out so many circulon woks that I am glad to have found the scan pan wok. The size is perfect since I make a lot of chow fun, stir fry and chow mein. It's nice and deep for stir frying large amounts of food. The finish is the BEST non stick finish I have ever used! I LOVE my scan pan wok. I have been telling all my friends about this wok.
Highly recommend it to everyone.

great for medium heat, not so great for high heat
I was really excited to get the scanpan wok. However, I have found some pros and cons.

What I really like: it is a really good non-stick pan, you can cook over medium heat, with no oil at all, and food cooks evenly and slides right out as if it is on a slick surface. I cooked this way for several times.

Con: Then one day I used high heat to stir fry with a 2 tbsp of oil, the pan never performed as well afterwards. After using it on high heat just ONE time, the pan has a tendency to stick slightly. Always have to use more oil later, in order to get non-stick.

Since I use it more for stir fry than stews, this pan is now relegated to the pantry.

I think for the exorbitant $$$ cost, other woks that are cheaper perform better.

If you cook only over medium heat, this is a FANTASTIC buy.

If you stirfry often and need very high heat, this is NOT a good choice.

Scanpan combines the latest technology with elegant, functional design and old world craftsmanship to manufacture the ultimate non-stick cookware today. Made of pressure-cast aluminum with ceramic-titanium non-stick surface.

• 14-inch stir-fry wok made in Denmark of pressure-cast aluminum
• Green Tek ceramic-titanium nonstick finish is safe for metal utensils

• Stainless-steel lid available separately; covered by full lifetime warranty

Hot Danish Wok
We have an entire set of ScanPan and consider it the best cookware we have ever owned in terms of function. When the stir fry pan was introduced we had to have one. This is now the pan of choice for stir-fry and for cooking things like chowders, stews and chili. It conducts heat evenly with no hot spots, it cleans up easily with a paper towel. There is really no reason to put it through the dishwasher since it wipes clean with a sponge or paper towel. It is absolutely the best non-stick surface with which we have ever cooked.

We highly recommend the ScanPan brand of cookware and especially this multi-function pot.
One of my ENDURING favorites
Mine is over 15 years and still looks and works like new! This is a uniquely valuable pan. You can crank up the heat to high, cook quickly with assurance of smooth even heat, then rinse it under the fawcet to swish absolutely clean while it's still hot. AMAZING. No risk of warping or damage. No problem with sticking. And because of its density and superior conductivity, NO problem with burnt foods. While I love my LeCreuset, it can't handle high heat. Scanpan is a natural for things that like high heat. If you haven't tried this brand yet, this pan would be the one to try first.

Not Well Thought Out At All
I know this review is going to get trashed, with people howling about what Amazon reviews are 'supposed' to be. But with this review I may very well save some people a big chunk of change, so onward.

See, this product is a good example of the problem with Amazon reviews - anyone who really knows how to use a wok wouldn't even consider this product, much less buy it and post a review. So this product gets very high reviews from happy but misled customers, and much better woks costing 1/5th as much get slightly more mixed reviews from people who know what they're doing but compare one decent wok to another.

Reasons this is a poorly thought out product:

- Heavy weight hinders you when tossing food. Tossing food is not just for show - it's an essential part of the main school of wok-based cookery. It exposes food to extremely high heat in brief bursts but at the same time moderates the heat and keeps food from overcooking or burning. This is crucial for...

Originally conceived to rest over a Chinese pit-style stove, the wok has been a staple of East Asian cuisine for centuries. While typically used for stir frying, woks can also be used for a variety of cooking techniques including braising, steaming, and stewing. Inspired by authentic Chinese woks, this versatile wok, which measures approximately 14-1/4-Inch wide, comes perfectly weight-balanced with a flat base for stability, gently sloping sides, and a smooth, concave interior that helps ensure efficient stir-frying of broccoli, peppers, onion, tofu, and other fresh ingredients.

• Authentic-style wok made of enameled cast iron
• 2 loop cast-iron side handles help ensure safe transport
• Secure-fitting glass lid with phenolic knob locks in heat and moisture
• Hand washing recommended; oven-safe to 350-degrees F
• Measures approximately 14-1/4 by 14-1/4 by 6-inch; limited lifetime warranty

Fantastic Wok
I was not sure this wok would measure up to my standards of Chinese cooking. I have two other traditional Chinese steel woks that I use a lot. But, what I found with this wok is that, even though the heat source doesn't have to be on high, the mass of iron in this wok generated much more heat and my Chinese dishes came out fantastically. I have been totally shocked at how this wok performed.

The surface needs to be gently seasoned, as do the surfaces of Le Creuset's grill pans, but, once that is done, food rarely sticks to it (or, the grill pans). I usually let some water soak in the pan after I've taken the food out, and after that, stuck-on food easily come off. I highly recommend this pan.

Le Creuset claims their wok is "Dishwasher safe" However, one should not place seasoned woks in a dishwasher as the detergent will break down the pan's seasoning and "wok hay". That is after all, one of the desired characteristics of a wok.

Le Creuset is oven safe to 400 degrees.

Staub 7-quart Wok: Hand washing recommended by Staub. Although their new cooking surface is less tenuous than the Le Creuset's matte surface due to Staub's superior enameled interior, in addition to their exterior surfaces being enamel-coated.

Staub is oven safe to 500 degrees.
