Had this La Gourmet BlueSteel Wok w/ handle over less than a year and It started cracking at the connection area sad.gif seems like the crack is going around the revert and eventually will snap off from the wok and potentially causing injury.

So do you guys have any good recommendations for blusteel wok that last long?

Doing only extremely simple heating/cooking/boiling at home nowadays.. Recently, I bought and tried Widesea's camping cookware. Hard anondized aluminium.. Damn things sure heat up fast. Saves gas too.

Improper use.After cooking straight put in sink and on water. Sudden change from hot to cold...

Beg to differ, after cooking we just let it cool down all the way before washing it.

Aluminium's a superb HEAT conducter.. Hard anondized is way SAFER than the non stick telfon. My 1st choice was Titanium but it's expensive and doesn't heat evenly. My old one was stainless steel, they are way too slow.

Added: I avoided non stick telfon.. they cause health issues..

Agreed, I always avoid non-stick wok or pan. I will try to look at the anodized aluminum wok.
