Well worth the money but needs a traditional wok brush that is not plastic.
This was a gift to me. Pretty nice wok and a solid set. The rivets look a little small but I think it will be okay. Just keep an eye on them and make sure every use that you heat up the wok after washing to dry it out (as you should be doing anyway).I tried it out and it works great. It's seasoned well but you should wash it beforehand and reseason it yourself. Not a fan of the scrubber. I wish they included a wok brush with the long straight bristles. There's no lid or grate for this one but I don't think it's necessary. The tools are solid, and the hanger for it looks serviceable, but the two hooks toward the bottom of it...I can't figure what they would put on it because they don't curl up. I guess I could bend them. The hanger is handy because the wok is such a big thing. If you can put it on a wall with all the utensils out of the way then it would be very nice. I would say this is well worth the money.

Decent wok
Decent wok for a one handled item. Its constructed of stainless and must be seasoned or you will have a sticky mess. Don't expect even heating because the entire point of wok cooking is using the hot spot that develops on the bottom and moving food items in and out of that for optimum cooking. Bonus is that this wok comes with a great set of utensils that will make using your wok more versatile. Bad point: No lid. Having a lid means being able to steam items and cook rice in the wok. If you want a lid, it'll have to be purchased separately.

This wok unit is the COMPLETE PACKAGE!
This wok unit is MORE than just the wok pan--this wok bundle is the COMPLETE PACKAGE! As I removed the wok from the packaging, I was surprised to find a gorgeous set of kitchen utensils included with this wok, along with a ring stand for our gas stove. The utensils are heavy, solid, and very well constructed. The pan can be used right away since it arrived pre-oiled, but we made sure to re-oil after our first cooking. The unit cooks evenly, and quickly, and there is PLENTY of room in the wok for a family of 4 (and perhaps more!) The unit is actually larger than I imaged, but this is wonderful for our family in that we tend to prepare two meals at one time, to use leftovers for a second meal the next day. There is ample room in the pan to accomplish this task. I would not hesitate recommending this unit to family and friends!

Nice wok set!
I'm not a wok pro (this is my first, although I did purchase a flat bottomed one for my son previously) but this is a nice set of wok and tools for the price. I like that it includes a wok ring and also a hanging set up. If you like to season your wok yourself, or if you need to re-season in the future, the option of removing the handle makes it possible to do so in your oven. This set has just about everything you need, the only thing missing is a lid which is available to purchase seperately.

Heavy Steel Wok Complete with all Tools
This is heavy for me to lift so I'm glad there is a second handle opposite the wooden one. It says in the information on the order page that it comes pre-seasoned and it sure looks black enough to be seasoned. But the directions that come with it don't indicate this and give instructions how to season it before use. I've seen unseasoned pans and this one looks as black as my 70 year old cast iron. I think I'm going to wash it and use it. It also comes with a mounting bracket for the wall on which it and all its extras can be hung to keep everything together. The tools work well with it and it gives a good even heat. Unfortunately good tools don't make a good cook and so far my cooking hasn't improved. But that's not the wok's fault. I'm so glad it comes with a storage solution that shows it off.

Good wok, comes with set of cooking utensils
> JLYO Carbon Steel Wok Pan - 12.6 “ Round Bottom Wok Pan Set with 7 Pcs Cookware Accessories - Traditional Chinese Japanese Woks -Hand Hammered Wok (~$49)The Good: Look and feel of traditional wok. Carbon steel is easy to clean, especially if properly oiled. Comes with base for stovetop cooking. Small opposing handle for heavy dishes. Well-built.The Bad: Works best with gas stoves. I would only use it on those. Initial cleaning, heating, and seasoning can be smoky.Great if you don't have a set of utensils already. I would've much preferred a good lid instead of utensils, though. Tested negative for presence of lead, as expected.
