Can someone try something for me?

Thanks folks, it isn't my computer then.


Phil, how did you get to that review for the item?
I can't even get that, although the review does seem a little wrong with, 'coating peeling off', '9 pounds' etc..
What coating?
It isn't a non-stick pan, like all carbon steel woks it needs proper cleaning then seasoning/oiling to stop it rusting.

Cheers

Phil, how did you get to that review for the item?

Over 35 years in I.T 

1) Throw your search string into Amazon.Co.Uk
2) Click on the result of interest
3) From the location bar, copy the element following "/dp/", i.e. "B000P5Q42I"
4) Throw that string into Google
5) Click on the review titled "Amazon.co.uk: Sha An "Thush J"'s review of 27cm (10.5") Carbon ..."

Incidentally, a second commentator echoed your own feelings (and mine); he wrote :

I've used these untreated carbon steel woks before and they are much better than non-stick varieties providing that you look after them. My tips are:
1) Season it before first use (forms a non-stick barrier); 2) Straight after serving wash it cold water without any detergent and dry thoroughly with kitchen towels (retains most of the barrier and helps it to build up); 3) Wipe the inside with a kitchen towel damped with vegetable oil before storing away (keeps the rust off).
Hope it helps.
