Know before you buy
Yes, the Demeyere 5-Plus Wok features a magnetic stainless steel exterior specifically designed for excellent performance on induction cooktops, as well as gas, electric, and halogen stoves.
Absolutely. The 7-inch flat base provides a secure, stable foundation that prevents the wok from wobbling on any stovetop, making it much easier to use than traditional round-bottom woks.
Silvinox is a proprietary surface treatment that prevents discoloration and keeps the stainless steel looking bright and silvery over time. It makes the surface much easier to clean, as food residue is less likely to stick.
Yes, this wok is both dishwasher safe and oven-safe up to 500°F, allowing you to easily transition from the stovetop to the oven for finishing dishes.
The wok features welded stainless steel handles designed to stay cool during stovetop use. Because they are welded rather than riveted, there are no internal screws to trap food, which also makes the interior easier to clean.
The 5-ply construction layers stainless steel with aluminum cores to provide rapid, even heat distribution across the entire surface. This prevents hot spots, ensuring your proteins sear evenly and vegetables retain their texture and nutrients.
