Customer Reviews


I'd been wanting one of these for ages, so was eager to try it out on the stove - but it was a disappointment in the end. It slides around a lot, so never feels particularly safe (although I guess to be fair this has as much to do with the stove as anything; others may have better luck with that aspect), and raises the wok too high above the flame for my purposes. I've found it's easier to balance the wok on the burner, and to use the wok ring as a stand on the table - for which purpose it works perfectly!

Solid construction. Plenty of airflow for gas burner and heat rising up the sides of a wok.
The distance between the bottom of your wok and the burner will depend on the curvature of your wok. So, it may or may not be the proper diameter/height depending on the curvature of your wok and how high your burner sits.
On my Heartland range, I remove the grate and put this ring directly on the part of the cooktop that contains spills and boiled over liquids. As a result, the ring is very steady and the bottom of my wok sits just a fraction of an inch from the inner flame of my burner; the positioning is perfect!
I've tried other rings and none of them worked. Basically, all the others are short, solid aluminum or steel chimneys with a few holes for air circulation. But, this chimney style of wok is for electric ranges, not gas. They don't provide for enough oxygen for my high-BTU burner. And, the heat is trapped in within the chimney so it doesn't lap up the sides of the wok. The bottom center of the wok gets warm/hot but the rest stays cold.
If you want a wok ring for a gas range, you must get a wire one like this. And the only wire ring I can find is this brand, Joyce Chen.
