FYI this is supposedly "nitrided carbon steel" in which there is (supposedly) no chemical coating for the non-stick layer, rather it's a pre-seasoned layer of oil formed by heating the wok to high temperatures. It's hard to gauge whether these are actually nitrided if you're worried about teflon etc.
On a side note, the wooden handle is not good quality - starts peeling off after a couple of washes.

Those reviewers don't know how to cook on carbon steel properly then. This pan does not *have* a nonstick layer. It is nitrided carbon steel. Nitride is not a layer. It is a treatment of the carbon steel.

The pan requires all the same care that cast iron or regular carbon steel does. It requires regular seasoning, and good temperature control.

I don't think Teflon is a legitimate concern here. It either has a layer of PFOA / PFAS or it doesn't. Nitriding the steel Is merely the injection of nitrogen gas into the steel, increasing its density, towards the top where the food is touching. It isn't intended to be anywhere near as non-stick as Teflon, It just gives the oil and food particles less wide pores to fall into as the pan heats up. It requires slightly less maintenance than traditional carbon steel, and will be a bit rust resistant but not rust proof then traditional carbon steel.

Whether it's nitrided or not, there is an expectation your regularly seasoning and oiling the pan.
