You're much better off with a large flat induction cooktop and a flat pan for even surface cooking. The small advantage with this appliance is that you can use it as a deep fryer. The induction will heat oil quickly and maintain temps.

This video from Wok with Tak is very helpful to learn how to use stainless steel woks:

Hopefully they fix this in the next iteration. Make sure the wok actually heats on the bottom rather than a ring. And add buttons to quickly go to max heat or low heat rather than several turns.
I didn't like the included 14" wok as it doesn't move around the base. I bought a smaller 12.5" carbon steel wok to instead. It is much easier to slide the wok around the base as you add oil. The smaller wok doesn't center itself until you add some food in it.
I can do about two wok tosses before the induction burner errors out. If you need to do more tosses, you can always pause it.
Although it heats up very hot and fast, I don't think it'll give you that wok hei. I live in an apartment and sometimes it can get pretty smoky.
