Been looking for a good quality, flat bottom, coating-free, thick carbon steel wok (as recommended on many review sites for home woking). Every wok matching these features was either sold by third-party sellers or required expensive shipping. Finally came across this item on sale today with free shipping and it appears to be exactly what I wanted: reviewers in the comments report it is constructed out of 14 gauge carbon steel and the wood handle can be removed when oven seasoning.
Description:
Our exclusive carbon-steel wok is perfect for stir-frying meats and veggies, deep-frying tempura, steaming with bamboo inserts and more. Traditional carbon-steel construction ensures quick, efficient heating and exceptional heat transfer in a light, easy to maneuver pan. Wok features a sturdy maple handle for easy, safe stirring and flipping and a flat bottom for even results on a variety of cooking surfaces. Safe for use with metal utensils. Carbon steel will rust if not properly seasoned and stored.
- Suitable for gas, electric, ceramic and induction stovetops
- Carbon steel heats quickly and efficiently, and is perfect for high-heat cooking
- Manufacturer: Sur La Table
- Material: Carbon steel
- Dimensions: 14" diameter

They have flat bottom woks that work better on electric, but I have used a regular one like this on an electric it's just hard. Season your wok before you use it rub it with olive oil or whatever oil and bake it in.

even if the wok was feature identical, a b&m store will charge at least $8-10 for statewide shipping, plus you're probably not getting a warranty or easy returns with a no-name brand.
