Doesn't distribute heat very well
»
It seems this wok tends to burn a bit up the sides over high heat cooking. However, it seems to be of decent quality and is priced right. Clean up? Good. Just not a great heat conductor or heat distributor. Would I buy again? No. I typically use a non-stick 14" Circulon Wok which is a much better heat conductor / distributor than the Cuisinart. The nice thing is I bought the two woks together and the cuisinart lid fits the circulon wok!

wok wonder

After reading other reviews, I was hesitant. Despite the odds, I went for this pan because I already have a 10pc Cuisinart set and would like all my pots to match.
I AM IMPRESSED AND LOVE THIS WOK! It is a big pan (bigger than a classic wok) but very lightweight (great for tossing food in it), easy to clean, versatile (oven safe), and the glass lid helps speed up the cooking time! I stir-fried dishes in it already and made lo-mein using some really sticky noodles and IT DID NOT stick!
Cuisinart products have never let me down. I am so happy with this purchase.

Nice big stainless steel wok. Heats up quickly and cooks evenly. Cleans up pretty well. I'm pretty happy with it.

Stainless Steel 14" Wok
»
I have gone through many "non stick" woks, even though they supposedly had a lifetime warranty, the non stick surface always ended up peeling off or chipping. I hunted all over our town looking for a stainless steel wok with no luck. I was thrilled to find this one on Amazon! The 14" size is perfect for us and the glass lid is great! I have cooked in it many times since it arrived and I am very, very happy with it! Easy to clean and it polishes up to brand new with a little "Barkeepers Friend" stainless cleaner. You just can't beat stainless!

Good, but not great
»
I bought this for cooking in college. Compared to some of the other more heavily priced woks/stir-fry pans out there, this one is affordable and nice to use. We use this wok about 3 times a week. We use it for stir-fry, steaming, and anything else we might need it for.
I've only used this on an electric stove, and so far it's good. Like other reviewers have stated, it does tend to be a bit difficult to clean.
The reason it gets 4 out of 5 stars is because the wok I use at my parents house was bought at a similar price, but is much better in usability. It might not look as nice as this wok, but it doesn't stick as much (it too is stainless steel).
For college, this is a good wok, and it'll last me a while. If it weren't for the clean up, it'd get 5 starts.
