Is this wok really USA Made? I bought this wok from The Wok Shop in SF, when I asked the owner if this is the one that is USA Made she went ballistic.

When I received mine, I saw no markings confirming where the wok was made, but it seems to be a lot better made than most woks out there.

it look like making of USA, but after I season twice, I still wipe a lot of rusty with paper towel before starting to cook and after washing the wok.

The paper that came with it said it was made in the USA. There are no markings on it to suggest otherwise. I am satisfied with it thus far. Not sure why the owner went ballistic???

Yes, on the bottom of the pot is says handcrafted in China. Follow the directions for use carefully and you will like the frying pan. Heat first, add oil add food and turn down to low in that order. Easy to clean even if you have to scrub after not following directions. It gets too hot if you do not turn it down once heated. let it get well heated before adding oil. Best, Molly

The little leaflet that came with my wok says that it is made by Helen's Asian Kitchen - a division of Harold Import Company. They are located in Lakewood, NJ. Their website is www.HelensAsianKitchen.com

I can check, but I'd bet my next paycheck that it's China. There are about 20 different brandings of this same stove. All work the same. My guess is that one factory makes these for whoever wants to place an order and put their brand on them. Nothing wrong with that, but this isn't the same as Camp Chef's various propane stoves. When I called them to ask about butane and altitude, they didn't know much about this particular product. Again, nothing terribly wrong about this. If it were made in USA, it wouldn't be any better, but would cost $110 ... and nobody would buy it.

They used to make it in the USA,now China. I had one in my old home about 10 years ago and that was US made.

I suggest that you go out to their website - http://www.smokin-it.com/. I have one and have not found anything indicating that it was manufactured outside the US. It is well built and worth the money. Put on the casters, season it following the instructions, and you're ready to go. OBTW, I use wood chips rather than the suggested rounds. I get plenty of smoke into whatever I'm smoking -pulled pork, prime rib, sausage, and most of all - bacon. Use Ruhlmans Chartussurie (sp) book and you can't go wrong.... Oh, also buy a digital thermomether with food/smoker probes to assist in smoking... well , worth the money. I suggest that you go out to their website - http://www.smokin-it.com/.

If you look hard enough you MIGHT find one made in the USA. I looked for a couple weeks and then, bit the bullet. However, I was surprised that the blade was not marked as such and has held up to some pretty good beatings! I playing it by use I guess you could say. Would I buy another one, if the price is right :)

Hi Judith, The Truclads I own were made in China, but it is of very high quality. I have two pans, they both have a very high tech nonstick coating. The are my #1 tools in the kitchen. So well made I use the large one for high temp. Wok cooking. The best non-stick frying pans I have owned in 20 years. I still think they are too expensive but quality always cost you extra.

I called Amazon and was granted permission to return it, even though it was after 30 days. There was a restocking fee, so I still lost money, but not all of the money. I purchased the less expensive Joyce Chen non-stick wok, and have been very happy with it. Good luck!

I've ordered one because this is made in Korea! If this wock were made from China, I wouldn't place order! Thanks for your answer.

I know that there are some out there that are Made In Taiwan but, this is the one that's Made In USA..... Double-checked mine to be 100% sure...

I'm actually not sure where the Smokin'it Model 2 is made. Based on the unit I purchased over a year ago, it feels American made. It is very rugged with no fancy frills that might try make it look more expensive than it is. When was the last time you bought something from China that had a 12 foot heavy duty power cord? This is definitely not built like the usual piece of crap from China- it will probably last as long as you do. Buy it, you'll be very happy with it. Also, check out www.mojoegriddle.com , they have an awesome portable outdoor griddle that just hit the market.

engineered in USA. Doesn't say it's made here. Pan also has a high center, things are starting to stick after about 6months use. Would probably select another pan.

I would call them directly if this is important to you. They have a website. They are made both in the U.S. and in China, so you'd likely have to ask them directly which is which. Mine was U.S., but I can't vouch for anything other than mine.

I searched all over the unit, case and instructions. All I can tell you it is distributed from a company in NY. I just went to the website and the stove is made in China. I hope this answers your question.

You're worried because it came from China? Seriously? Where do you think woks come from? Its not an american cooking item..... we buy them so we can cook "Chinese" food in them. I wonder where Chinese food comes from?
