I wish I could give it a minus five star rating.It's apparently a mistake to buy this piece of junk because I think I should give it a try since its rating is not bad. I followed the simple instruction, and tried to be very careful for each step. Still, I got blackend pan bottom with burned smell all over the house.I'd recommend you buy a non-stick one for peace of mind. I can't imagine you have to spend 4*15 minutes=1 hour for the seasoning and so easily have a mess. Even after that, after each use, you still have to apply cooking oil to avoid rust. If I still bother to spend so much time and care for a wok, why wouldn't I just get a $10 wok. This Shi* doesn't differ itself from a $10 one you can easily find in any Chinese super market.Don't waste your money. The junk is not worth it.
