Description
xThe Kenmore Hammond 14-inch flat-bottom carbon steel wok is a durable, nonstick stir-fry pan designed for fast, even heating on gas and electric stovetops.
Built from 1.8 mm heavy-gauge carbon steel with a PTFE- and PFOA-free nonstick interior and riveted acacia wood handles, this wok balances professional heat retention with easy cleanup.

How quickly does this wok heat and distribute temperature?
The thick carbon steel body heats rapidly and spreads heat evenly across the cooking surface, giving quick sear and consistent results. That responsiveness helps when finishing vegetables, proteins, or sauces without long hold times.
- 1.8 mm heavy-gauge carbon steel for fast heat absorption
- Flat bottom ensures uniform contact with the burner
- Wide, sloping sides reduce hot spots during toss-cooking
Can I use this wok on all stovetops, including induction?
Yes — the flat-bottom construction was made to sit securely on a range of cooktops. Whether you have gas, electric, ceramic or induction, the wok maintains good contact with the heat source for stable cooking.
- Flat base compatible with gas, electric, ceramic and induction
- Stable placement prevents wobble during stirring and tossing

What kind of nonstick surface and cookware care does it require?
The interior features a PTFE- and PFOA-free nonstick coating rated for use up to 500°F, enabling low-oil cooking and effortless release of food. To extend the coating life, hand wash only and use wood, nylon, or silicone utensils rather than metal tools that can scratch the surface.

- Hand wash recommended to preserve coating and finish

How comfortable and safe are the handles when cooking?
Double-riveted acacia wood handles give a secure, ergonomic grip while resisting heat better than bare metal. The riveted construction keeps the handles firmly attached during frequent use, and the longer side handle helps with lifting and pouring heavier dishes.
