It's very difficult to burn a non-stick unless you dry burn it on high heat. But you shouldn't do that with non-sticks because they don't require preheating to be non-stick.

I used to use non-stick on my gas stove, they can be easily burned out and I was constantly buying woks every several months.

My understanding is that it is true that there are non-stick coatings that can withstand high heat but they also have other downsides (e.g. flaking, wearing out quicker). That said, I don't think...

Two out of the three woks included in this offer boast non-stick surfaces and are rated higher than their carbon steel equivalent, which comes unseasoned (meaning you have to season it before you can...

Gonna have to disagree with this one. I've had a "nitrided steel" wok in the past, and it's just a marketing term for light duty cast iron. Sure it works ok, but it's stupid heavy and heats up only...

Your point about constantly throwing away pans is really well taken. In general non-stick pans are not designed for high-heat cooking and those crud can mess up one's health in the long run. Carbon...

Amazon has flagged that item as frequently returned and encourages people to read the reviews. Not a good sign and the reviews are not good with people complaining that it develops holes.

No thank you. I'd rather use Teflon woks and make healthy delicious Chinese food, than to make whatever abomination you are talking about. If I want soup, I'd make soup. Stirfry isn't soup.
