Superior TOTAL Non-Stick Technology
Circulon features the technologically advanced TOTAL Nonstick System which combines a relaxed Hi-Low wave technology with one of the most nonstick coatings available.
Food cooks and releases on the entire surface of the pan. But raised circles on the “Hi” area allow a fraction of the cooking surface to take all of the abuse of utensils, protecting the majority of the cooking surface on the “Low” area from abrasion. The result of this has been enhanced cooking performance and nonstick durability.

Great so far. Completely non-stick, and stable on an induction hob. Probably best to gently wipe clean (avoid dishwasher) to preserve the non-stick.
My wife wanted a wok that would work on an induction hob. The first one we bought had a small heating base which did not heat up enough. With this the base fits the hob and it heats up very quickly. It’s quite big (check measurements) but it will still easily cook one person stir fries. We leave it out on the hob as it looks nice, not to mention saving cupboard space.
Have quite a few of this range, well made, no warping. Get what you pay fo
Best non-stick cookware on planet. Compatible with all heat sources and dishwasher safe.
Circulon has not disappoint so far. I have in the past bought Woks after woks of various brands and origins, none of them have lasted beyond 2 months as I cook the Chinese style of high heat and fast stir-frying all the time. This Circulon Hard Anodised Wok heats up quickly and evenly on an induction stove and it is great for quick stir-fry as well as deep frying, making soups even curries! Clean easily as it is non-stick and seemed to be ‘scratch-proof’ if you are not a very careful cleaner!
I bought this for use on my induction hob and haven’t been disappointed. The heat distribution is excellent making stir frying quick and easy.
Superb pan- beats every frying pan I’ve had including le creuce
Previous wok was the same lasted about 2.5years before non stick had gone. But we used it about 4 days a week so it did well. Think will try and hand wash or soak it more this time around.
This I s the first time I’ve invested in really expensive pans – I was dubious because of the cost but definitely worth the money. With this range you need barely and oil and literally wipe clean after use. Yes the handles do get hit so just make sure you use oven gloves.
Wish I’d bought one sooner – no more scraping the bottom of the wok or leaving it to soak over night.
Excellent size would easily cook for 6 plus i
This is a product I know well and this purchase was a gift for my son—it’s fantastic
This is my 4th as i keep giving them to people as gifts- its like finding religion- i want to share with people I love. Bit on the big side for two people- luckily we are often more! Non stick, hardly any oil used. Just like my Castey- fas delivery
Ich habe nach einem Wok gesucht den man bedenkenlos auf Ceranfeld benutzen kann, der die Wrme gut leitet und leicht zu reinigen ist. Mit dem Circulon habe ich ihn gefunden. Er ist sehr gut verarbeitet und sein Geld wert. Bin absolut zufrieden und kann ihn nur weiter empfehlen.
Shame about the flay bottom, can’t be helped I suppose. Well made, retains heat very well.
Super swift delivery and an excellent Wok, wide base sits perfectly on my induction hob, does not slide around and can handle plenty of prepared food.
A fantastic addition in the kitchen and have recently used it to feed 14 people with ease.
I use it with an induction hob and it’s brilliant. Don’t be put off by the size – the footprint will fit a large induction hob ring.
Fantastic Wok, if you don’t own one yet you need to, yes it’s that good. I only bought this because it was suitable with an induction hob, I am so glad I did. Fast heating (induction). Large volume. Stylish, easy to clean, the best non stick surface I’ve ever had and doesn’t scratch easily. LOVE IT. In fact I loved it so much I bought the whole Circulon set.
This is an outstanding piece of essential professional cooking equipment. Expensive but worth it. If you’re lucky enough keep checking daily deals on Amazon as I purchased two of these at discounted prices, well below the asking price.
I’ve had several standard woks over the years, all ending up going rusty or food sticking. Having taken the plunge with this wok, and from the positive reviews here on online, this was the best! I use one on gas and other on an induction oven. It’s a heavy solid wok. Handles are great but can get hot on high heat, although that is not a problem using oven glove or cloth. Unlike cheap woks, once you’ve cooked anything, it can be left to cool down with lid on without risk of rusting. It’s quite large so ensure you have enough cupboard space to store it. I use this wok for cooking much more than stir fries. Makes great curries.
The solid base takes awhile to heat up, so don’t be afraid to turn the heat up high at the start. This makes perfect stir fry’s, especially using rapeseed oil. Food NEVER sticks. Wok is large enough to move ingredients around without fear of spillage. Will cook for at least six to 10 portions, depending on appetite! So easy to keep clean. When finished cooking, allow the empty wok to cool down and gently rinse with mild warm or hot soapy water. Don’t use any abrasives on it. After washing, immediately wipe dry with kitchen roll and then to keep it Prime, wipe the inside lightly with oil before storing it away. I feel this will last for years. Never use metal tools to cook with. A proper flat non metal or wood spatulas are ideal. Circulon is a fantastic product, so much so I also have Circulon Yorkshire pudding dishes and pans. Never dissapoints and never sticks.
expensive but good quality. short handles reduces need for large storage
got it for my sons xmas gift he loves i
had this wok just over 7 years. It is great. No problems with non stick coating. Been in the dishwasher loads. Have found it easy to scrub clean when necessary as well. It is not 100% non stick. Some things do need a stir but not a problem for me.
Nice looking but the lid does not fully close. However i am very happy with it as it’s heavy and the food is tasty when when i use it. Excellent product.
just brilliant ! Easy to clean an multi purpose . I love it . You can cook risottos, currys, pasta and everything else with it.Truly spectacular.
Expensive but so good. Have loads of circulon and they haven’t let me down yet. Robust and very good non-stick. I use on my new induction hob.
Der Wok ist hochwertig verarbeitet, so dass das Kochen mit ihm wirklich Spa macht. Nichts backt an, die Wrmeverteilung funktioniert super und zudem bietet er eine Menge Platz. Wir sind rundum zufrieden und nutzen den Wok gerne und hufig.
Just be aware Its big & bulky but its a quality product. Highly recommended.
Ich habe mich bewusst fr den Wok von Circulon entschieden, da mir a.) das Design gefallen hat und b.) ich viele positive Rezensionen ber Circulon-Produkte gelesen habe.
Der Wok ist sehr hochwertig verarbeitet und es wird gehalten, was einem versprochen wird. Es macht unheimlich viel Spa mit diesem Wok asiatische Kstlichkeiten zu kreieren.
Alles in Allem kann ich dieses Produkt nur empfehlen.
This is the third Wok that I have purchased for family and friends, I would highly recommend this to you, having a flat bottom gives you more room and a much more even cooking experience. Enjoy.
This wok was purchased specifically for use on an induction hob and it has really impressed. Heats up very quickly and its size allows contents to be moved around with little risk of the contents escaping. It is a joy to use and very easy to clean. It is heavy gauge, well made and stays put – a quality kitchen item that will not disappoint.
These are brilliant non stick pans which work incredibly well on my induction hob. Just don’t overheat pans and these will last a lifetime.
I only use circulon pans and this is a perfect addition to my collection!
Just love this wok – really easy to clean – cooks food perfectly. I use this almost every day.
Only down side is it is a little heavy if holding in one hand….
Impressive item! This was a gift and so I have not used it. It’s popular with the recipient and clearly works well.
A great pan, a replacement for our old one that lasted a good 8 years!
I ordered this wok from New Zealand, and had it within a week. Just amazing service. It arrived very well packaged and protected. I have used it a dozen times now, and I abolutely love it. I have an electric ceramic radiant coil cooktop, and it performs perfectly on this. I did read a couple of reviews that said it would not work with this type of cooktop, but I have other Circulon Infinite cookwear that works really well, and so does this. I use it on Med-High heat (Circulon don’t recommend the highest heat setting), let it heat up for about 5 – 10 minutes, then cook. Being hard anodised aluminium, it gets nice an hot all over and up the sides – which is ideal for a wok. I really like the large flat base, which gives optimum contact with the element. Love it.
Excellent wok – I’ve now decided to buy a frying pan in the same range. You can use virtually no oil and the food doesn’t stick! Only niggle is the small handle on the lid to hang it up – which I don’t need and annoyed me – I couldn’t see it in the picture. However, I’ve snipped this off.
Wow!! I love it it!
I’ve been looking for some time to replace our worn out 36cm wok. Finding a good, large wok has been a challenge.
But I’m delighted with this purchase
It was a present for my daughter who is delighted with it, good quality.
Fantastic quality well wort the money, i use it to cook almost everything.
Like all the other circulon pans ive bought this is perfect even if it’s a little different to a normal wok having a flat bottom it works perfectly well worth the money as this will last for years
I have just taken delivery of my new Circulon Wok.
Super fast delivery and delivered on time .
I already have a similar sized cast iron Wok which I have had for years but it was time to replace it. Having other circulon products this was my first choice.
As other people have said it has a large flat base which Is far far much better for ease of cooking. It is most definitely totally non stick and cooks wonderfully.
The construction of this Wok is bomb proof and very well made worth every penny of what I payed for it.
Yes you can buy cheaper woks but you will regret that choice . I believe that it doesn’t matter what Circulon product you buy they are all well worth the money very well made and last for years.
Some reviews say the metal handles get hot when in use if you rivet a metal handle to aluminium body then heat it up it will get hot and they do just apply some common sense when you are using it and you will be fine. Although it is steel utensil safe I would always avoid that and use wooden utensils. Also you don’t need to make a huge quality of food to justify buying one of these it will cook smaller amounts too. Plenty of room to move food around.
Buy one you will not be disappointed and will serve you for years
very good product, I’m pleased with it. Just the size I wanted. I like LOTS of home-made curries and Special Fried Rice and this is perfect.
I can’t stop using it food taste great from i
I’ve had one of these for about 3 years and it’s been excellent. So much so that I’ve ordered two more for Christmas presents . Worth noting the comments about ceramic hobs, although I’ve only used mine on gas. After washing it looks like new despite plenty of use. A well made durable produc
This revolusionsed my stir fry , it’s the best ever, and I would buy it over and ove
Been using this for months now and it’s great quality, has even heat distribution and is still totally non-stick. If it was cheaper I’d buy one for my son & daughter!
Having previously tried the standard non stick Wok, these are in a league by themselves. A little on the heavy side and flat bottomed but it cooks very well. We were so impressed that we have now bought a set of this type of saucepans
just what others have said! Although its a tad heavy it is still easy to handle. Sturdy and strong, which I bought one years ago! Works on my big ring on my induction hob so I am very happy!
Not cheap, but great quality, solid, best-in-class (and I’ve had several over the years). Design-wise, the base could be slightly smaller in diameter – ie the whole pan could be still more rounded. However, for the majority of wok-cooking needs, it works very well indeed. I hope to get many years of service from this item.
It’s big! But a nicely made product, delivered very promptly and at a competitive price.
Bought this for my sister who absolutely loves it, very easy to clean nothing has stuck to it so far!
Bought it for a present and they are thrilled with i
I love these pots – we call them “magic” as they always cook brilliantly & are easy to clean. Sorry didn’t get to leave seller feedback as missed opportunity 7 gone now but product arrived in perfect condition, well packaged & very quickly – great !!
In use every day! Holds heat well, good base width for initial browning of large batches of meat. Can use as a slow cooker for casseroles too. Perfect for a stirfry. Cleans up well.
excellent quality. would be good to offer a rack within for heating
I have been on the lookout for a quality induction compatible wok for over 2 years now and this one appeared to fit the bill nicely especially as it was available on the Amazon Marketplace for 53 a 47 saving on the retail price. It arrived well packaged, previously opened but unused.
Unlike so many other woks at a similar price this one is large and has a 26 cm diameter thick stainless steel 3 layer base incorporating an aluminium sandwich to conduct heat rapidly to the excellent ripple like nonstick cooking surface.
The wok heats quickly and evenly on the induction hob and notably the sides heat quickly too being hard anodised aluminum. Perfect. Good quality tight fitting chromed steel lid included for steaming as well as frying. It has the capacity to prepare enough food for a large family or dinner party.
As one other reviewer noted this wok is not going to perform well on an electric halogen hob as the thermostat will automatically reduce the heat to a point where proper stir frying become impossible but if you have gas or induction it is a far better proposition than any expensive cast iron Le Creuset wok that when heated takes an age to cool down. Note that Asian chefs never use cast iron woks.
Overall a recommended buy especially at this price.
This was bought from my wish list as a present and it is the best thing I have ever cooked with. I use it for stir fries, curries, fajitas, tacos, slow cooking, quick cooking. The lid was a big selling point for me and it is perfect. Cleans easily, nothing sticks and really is the best wok/pan I have ever used. Worth the money.
I bought this to add to the 3 saucepan set and stockpot. Ideal for use on my induction hob. A touch on the expensive side, but a really good quality pan. Made quite a few stir fries in it now and nothing sticks, and only use a small amount of oil. Would recommend.
Brilliant,super fast to clean and cooks evenly with having flat base. Highly recommend.
Very solid build and therefore quite heavy. Good quality non-stick finish, looks smart, and I wouldn’t want anything much smaller to cook a family meal. If you want a good-quality, non-stick wok, which is therefore easy to use and care for, you will struggle to find better at this price.
Bought this after much deliberation. Very good wok and a doodle to clean. Large base that covers the wok burner to ensure that the flames heat the base and no the sides where the metal isn’t as thick. The lid also features a metal loop should you want to hang it up. Happy with this wok and got it for a very good price. If there is a better wok I’d like to see it.
Circulon are fantastic and I have a selection of their pans. This one is Huge and heavy – which poses a challenge of where to store it! But it is great for stir frying – I love i
Infinite is an apt description for this what I would term the King of all Wok’s. Absolutely fantastic to use, easy to clean, and sophisticated to look at, an utter delight to be the owner of such a a beautiful all round wok.
The wok is large and has a great non stick surface and has very even heating. The only downside is that it is heavy, always has to pick it up by both handles.
It’s great for cooking meals for the family due to its size and heat distribution. Food cooks well in it. So far, cleaning it is easy due to the non-stick property. A fifth star would be awarded if it remains non-stick for a reasonable length of time. We’ll see!
Excellent choice easy to clean does exactly what it says on the box. I use it all the time. Great buy and much cheaper from amazo
I bought this Wok about 4 years ago. I have 2 teenage boys who eat for England. This pan still looks like new, has no scratches and the non stick surface is still non stick. I wash it in warm soapy water & store it on the hob-top.
I use this pan at least 3 times every week for everything – Bolognaise, Chilli, Curry, Stew, soup, I have even used it in the oven, and occasionally for a stir-fry. It is the only pan big enough to cope with the family sized meals I make & can make double quantities for freezing.
It was expensive, but will give me 10 years plus of service, easily, and so was very good value for money.
It is so versatile, you will hardly use any other pans again!
My oldest is off to University later this year and will be sending one with him.
This was definitely the best kitchenware purchase I ever made!! Hardly a week goes by without using it to make Chilli con carne, Indian & Chinese curries, stir fries etc… Every time the meal comes out perfectly without base burning… Cleaning the wok is almost as pleasurable as cooking with it!! After months of use it’s as good as the day it was bought and is permanently kept on view in the wok cradle on our range cooker.
You will not use another pan. I use it for most of my dishes. Pastas, stews, risotto, paellas, the lot. A bit on the heavy side but ad least i know its quality and not some cheep rubbish. Look amazing in the kitchen, i use it as a serving dish as well. I love to show off
Well made, efficient and a dream to use and clean. I use it for far more than just stir-fries. Brilliant for indian dishes.
This is an excellent WOK which keeps its heat throughout stir-frying. The domed lid enables you to steam food and retain the flavour. Well worth the money and highly recommended. Quality product.
This wok looks good and with the glass lid, is really good value. Least expensive I have found.
It does take longer to heat up on my induction hob but I have had several other woks that the food ends up sticking to the bottom but not this one. It isnt as heavy to lift as I anticipated either so I would recommend this to others
The wok is really great and a fantastic size. It works brilliantly on the induction cooker. I am a little disappointed in the quality of the lid. It fits well but is a kind of stainless steel that doesn’t seem to come clean nicely so doesn’t look that great hanging up,or on display.
for the price Circulon Infinite Wok, is the best, I have ceramic hob and the heat transferred to the wok is good, but not thr brst.
What I love:
is big,is beautiful, has cover, it is very easy to clean, no sticking!
What I don’t like:
well….it doesn’t get hot fast, it kind of lazy when it came to transfer heat from my hob 🙁
I am extremely pleased with my new wok, it is real quality , heavy duty and excellent solid handles..Thank you.Lorraine
I have recently replaced my kitchen, I have an induction hob, this is just right for my needs, not all saucespans are compatable with induction. This wok is really big so you would never need to use another one as well.
If you cook a lot of stirfrys then this is for you.
Solid construction, non stick coating and very easy to clean.
It is a big wok, so storage may be a problem but I leave mine out on the wok burner as it is so stylish.
Lifting and tipping food out is a bit awkward as it is fairly heavy, so get someone to help when you move it.
I would recommend to anyone
Used product 4-5 times and works well for stir fries . Also easy to wipe clean and wash with no sticking
I have got used to using this wok for a long time. I have to turn the induction hob to 8 or maximum because of the large amount of aluminium in making the pan, for the pan to be hot enough to cook Chinese food. However, the non-stick is very good and it has kept its non stick stick all this time. I also like the size. I like the shape and size of the lid.
I am now recommending this wok for my Chinese friend who has an induction hob as well.
The heavy construction is solid and once it heats up properly, the stir fry is cooked effortlessly. You can cook 1-4 servings. Clean up is easy with the non stick surface. I use this at least 3 times a week and after several months, I have not been disappointed.
I’ve recently had my kitchen remodelled and I wanted a set of new cookware to go in it. After reading many pleasing reviews about the Circulon Infinite range I decided to purchase a lot of it. I haven’t been disappointed. It’s sturdy heavy, without being too heavy to pick up (even when full). It’s extremely hard wearing. It cooks excellently. It looks great.
The wok is beautiful, and massive! We can cook a nice big stir fry for the whole family and also do a big batch for several meals together.
I would recommend these pans to anyone. They are on the pricey side but you get what you pay for. I believe I won’t be replacing these for many years to come.
I have had several wok’s over the years and have been disappointed that most of them don’t seem to last 2 minutes.
After looking around for a couple of months I eventually went for it and bought this item, I was nervous about spending so much but have been thrilled with the results every time I have cooked in it.
Yes it is heavier than others but it’s still managable and an absolute pleasure to cook with. I’m going to get family to put money towards more products from the range for my Xmas Box.
Fabulous !! Everything about this product is exactly as stated. A real quality product.
Delivery, as always, was spot on. Barbie Carso
very high quality, you deserve it!!! the price is also high, but it’s quality is really good, as heavy as two normal pan.
We cook Chinese everyday and this wok is perfect. Looks great and is very hard wearing. Excellent purchase and worth paying the extra.
Being Malaysian I do a lot of cooking in a wok. I was looking to replace my worn out wok with a family size wok that not only cooks a large amount but offered better stability during stir frying. This wok ticks both these criteria and impressed me further with the non-stick feel when cooking. Any food item you place in the wok to stir fry floats around the wok with such ease it is a real pleasure to use. Washing up is very easy too, as the non-stick means exactly that.
This wok is well worth the cost, and was delivered with usual Amazon delivery speed and convenience.
I’ve always wanted a decent Wok and now I’ve got one.
It does everything in the cleanest and easiest of ways and the food tastes good.
I use it on my induction hob finding the heat evenly distributed.
Things that I liked about this wok:
* There is no doubt that this wok is extremely sturdy and well made
* It has a very large flat base – one of the largest I have seen in a wok. This means that more of the cooking surface is in contact with the heat
* the sides of the wok are gently sloping. This means that you can cook a large amount of food at the same time and they will still be in contact with the cooking surface of the wok
* non stick surface – the food genuinely does not stick at all to it
* easy to clean – just was immediately after use with hot soapy water. It doesn’t need any care other than that
* the handles are riveted onto the sides of the wok. There are no screws to come undone or loosen.
* the handles on the wok and the lid are thick and heavy duty – they are not going to break under any normal usage
* the stainless steel lid is large and if you are not stir frying it allows for plenty of steam to accumulate keeping the food moist and hot
* works on all cooker types including ceramic and induction hobs
* comes with a lifetime guarantee – this gives you confidence in the quality of the materials and the workmanship
Things that I didn’t like about this wok:
* it is heavy and not being overly tall or muscular, I do find that once it is full of food it is heavy to lift
* When cooking a standard stir fry for around 5 minutes the handles get warm but are not too hot to pick up. If you accidentally have the handles overlapping another ring on the cooker be aware that they can get extremely hot.
* the non stick surface will scratch if metal implements are used (but most people are aware not to use metal so that shouldn’t be a problem)
* because it is such a large pan it does require a decent amount of storage space in your cupboards. Unfortunately you cannot store it with the lid inverted into the main body as the lid is much taller and the handle of the lid ends up scraping on the non stick bottom of the wok
* the stainless steel base doesn’t conduct heat as well as a copper base would but it does still heat up very well
Overall impression:
A huge wok that is ideal for cooking meals for a large family. It is solid, sturdy and the quality of the build is obvious to see when you see it in real life. It is expensive compared to other woks on the market but I can’t see that I will ever need to purchase a new one so to me it was worth it.
Good weight with thick base to ensure even heating and retention of heat when brought to table.
Handles remain quite cool while cooking.
Good solid coating and easy to clean.
Overall an excellent replacement for the disappointing Ken Hom wok we had before.
After much pondering I bought this item to replace a much loved but abused wok. So far it has been used for omlettes, curry, bolognaise, pasta, rice, chicken, fish & soup. No stir fry so far. If the lid is left on whilst cooking the handle does get hot, but as i have another pan with the same problem i am used to getting the oven glove out. Does not take long to get hot and maintains a good low even heat for simmering, or the perfect omlette. Whilst cooking rice it looked like there was some residue and was going to take a bit a cleaning – hot soapy water and a quick wipe, job done. The only problem i have with this product is because i love it so much the husband uses this as an excuse not to do any cooking and leave it all to me! Even with my weak wrists i don’t find it too heavy. I love this product and would have no problem recommending it.
Very pleased with this product, although quite large, it is great for cooking stir fry’s & lots more besides, is so easy to clean too – brill!!
I love cooking on a wok for my stir fry and other food stuff. I have to change my aluminium wok because it was not compatible with our new ceramic hob. I searched Amazon and found this product. I like the diameter size because I can cook more in it when I have friends joining us for a meal, and it comes with a cover as well. I was a bit turned off by the price. I read the previous reviews and was convinced to go for it. The first time I cooked on it, I can really feel the difference compared with the other woks I have used before. Even if you use a little oil it never dries up and the food never sticks even when the heat setting is on high. The food cooks evenly because of the good distribution of heat. I just loved this wok. The price was worth it.
superb product.it does take a bit of time to heat up but there is absolutely no suggestion of the food sticking!
I looked at various woks before deciding on this one and I have to say I was not disappointed. Yes it is expensive but worth every penny.
A great buy.
We bought this to add to the rest of the pans in the range – and it is fantastic!!!! We love it. Well worth the cost!
I had so looked forward to using this wok and was not disappointed. It has a good sized base (unlike some other woks) and can be used on the largest ring of the hob. Long, slow cooking is a delight either starting on the hob and finishing in the oven or just leaving it on the hob. It can cook at lower than normal temperature once everying gets going and is so easy to clean. Highly recommended.
was looking for a big bang wok 36 cm not too heavy for my petite size but at the same time durable easy cleaning non stick wok and presentable to serve on dining table and i found this.
have used it on my ceramic hob, it retains heat very well (that is after 15 mins or so of pre heat with little bit of oil) but if you are wanting to sear/brown food on high heat, you will be dissappointed so adviseable to look for other wok.
Having said that, because of its excellent heat retention, you could just use minimal liquid for any type of cooking and it still keeps food moist, of course with the use of the domed lid. Need not to worry about burning the bottom of the wok.
I believe that if you use the right utensils for the non stick, it will be your long term kitchen partner 🙂
You can use it for many types of cooking on the hob and under the hob as it is also oven proof.
Having changed recently to an induction hob we needed a new wok as our current circulon one would not work with the induction system.
We have always bought Circulon in the past and have never been dissapointed this is no exception the product is great the non stick qualities superb a great piece of kitchen equipment which should last as long as the old one has.
I purchased this wok having already bought a Circulon Infinite saucepan set. The quality is excellent and it makes cooking a stirfry even easier, as it never sticks and the thick steel base retains heat well. It has a lifetime guarantee and it is easy to see why.
Excellent wok, lid fits perfectly, solid and made to last. Circulon products aren’t cheap but then quality products seldom are.
