Instead go with a regular carbon steel wok and season it yourself at home. Far safer
There's a bunch of these on Amazon under different brand names and slightly different handles, rivets, etc. I have one and it's been good, though the wooden handle was pretty dry when it arrived and I saw one review where it cracked, so I soaked the interior of the handle in mineral oil, which should help.
My only dislike of it is the rolled lip, which is more annoying to clean/dry but that's a minor gripe. Just kind of a weird design for a wok.
The pan is thicker and much more rigid than traditional carbon steel woks and closer to the Yosukata pans, which I didn't mind. They're heavier than a traditional wok but almost all flat bottom woks tend to be quite heavy vs the restaurant style ones. I've used the Yosukata before and liked it but this is less than half the price and the nitrided carbon steel really does perform better. Build quality wise, this isn't that far off from the Yosukata either and I find the Yosukata a bit too heavy.
Prior to this I was using a Joyce Chen wok and it was ok but the rivets were aluminum and they'd constantly wobble and loosen. The rivets and handle attachment on this are rock solid without any flex like my older restaurant supply woks.
Definitely gives me pause though
