I like this wok
This product is good
I would buy this item again.
Received in good condition. As advertised. Planning to use for drink garnished with shrimp and or fruits. Also serving small bites on these shorter skewers.
The product looks nothing like the picture
The soy sauce container is all metal. The picture looks like it's porcelain

Melted cover-disintegrated
I purchased 1 of these. keep it at 180 degrees I bought them to using in my business! The Lids have melted and disintegrated, leaving me with just the heaters and no lids. I am hoping to find a replacement lid or contact the manufacture if defective products!!

Not a frying pan
Here it's called a frying pan ... but it's really a Wok !!!
not a good hot water dispenser
exactly after one year the tank started to leak and the lid fell apart because of the heat from the boiling water, very disappointed!

These get nice comments
Only problem is that the sail takes up a lot of the usable pick, so you only get about 3" to use. Very nice picks if that works for you.
Huge! Love it! Working perfectly for what we bought it for!
Great!

Just OK
Nice but the bottom is not perfectly flat so it does not heat evenly.
Nice Cover
Very solid
Love my new lid
I use this lid on my homemade disk wok for camping. Everyone loves it. They are a little pricey but I will use it for many many years. Love it!!!!
Such good quality at such a low price.
I was not expecting something as heavy duty as this for the price that I paid. These fit my wok and outdoor round grill for my outdoor Volcano cooker to keep food warm while camping. Wind and outdoor temperatures can cause a lot of heat loss, resulting in uneven cooking and using a lot more propane. In many camping locations, propane is not readily available and conservation of propane becomes important. These lids solve these problems.
Hell of a thing
As crazy as it sounds the guys like having hot soup in 90 degree weather. These rings work great for simmering. I should get a couple more.
I recommend the products I purchased.
Excellent price & quality. Two bamboo steamer & a steamer pan.
These ceramic white soup spoons fit my need just fine
Wish the spoons were a little deeper. My old ones had more capacity than these new ones.
EXCELLENT
VERY GOOD

Just what I wanted
Simple rice cooker --- one switch to cook --- two lights to tell one that rice is cooking or ready --- what could be more simple ? I bought this rice cooker/crock pot/pressure cooker and couldn't figure out how to lock down the lid which is very important for pressure cooking so I ended up gifting it to our local Family Center and looked on the internet to replace my many years faithful rice cooker that was much the same as the KaTom unit, ordered it, delivery was great, price was the same and now I'm cooking my varieties of rice and quinoa just as I want to. Thanks KaTom for providing a product that suits my simple needs.
EVJ
I love this grill, it met my expectations. I was disappointed how long it took to receive the shipment of the grill. There was a substantial lapse between the delivery of the pu pu platter and the grill.

Delicate edge
Extremely sharp. Great slicer, but very fragile edge. Use regularly. Doubt you will find a better value anywhere. I own several and discard when I can no longer maintain the edge. Crazy good value.

Does The Job
Wok ring works great for 14" & 16" round Woks.
Great Mandarin Strainer!
This strainer works great with any 14" or 16" wok it is made well and it should last a lifetime! The only improvement I can see would be the addition of a longer handle but you can easily make one out of hard wood and insert it into the hollow handle and rivet it in place.

Good Wok
Great Wok Distributes Heat Evenly it Is Durable Easy To Clean. Make Sure You Season it with Oil On High Heat several times to make it non stick. The Hollow Handle Will Get Hot If Left On Stove. I would Suggest Making a Wood Handle And Insert It in the Wok handle then rivet it in place. It Is Nice and big and deep.
Handles Are Junk
The Wok Shovel It self is Fine and it is durable and works great! But the wood handles are not fitted good at all they are very loose and fall off they are held in place by a rivet that does not Evan go all the way through the handle it is just stuck in and it wobbles. The handle is made from soft wood and will com apart easily I recommend getting the all metal Wok Shovel or replace the handles with hard wood and rivet it in 2 or 3 places.

The Ladle It self is Fine and it is durable and works great! But the wood handles are not fitted good at all they are very loose and fall off. They are held in place by a rivet that does not Evan go all the way through the handle it is just stuck in and it wobbles. The handle is made from soft wood and will com apart easily I recommend getting the all metal Wok Shovel & ladle or replace the handles with hard wood and rivet it in 2 or 3 places.
