  1. No one hurt

    Made Jun 20, 2011, published by CPSC Jul 13, 2011

    The product, in the report: 12” Chinese Wok with Xylan Non Stick Coating, Constructed in carbon steel for durability. Xylan non-Stick coating in each frypan. Sturdy & stay cool phenolic handles. Clean with ease. ExcelSTeel by COOK PRO.INC.

    I purchased the 12” Chinese Wok with Xylan Non Stick Coating, ExcelSteel by COOKPRO.Inc. to do stir fry on my induction stove. I have a different pan which I used in the past, but this 12” Wok seemed like a better size for one person. A magnet worked on the wok meaning the wok would work on an induction stove. I followed all the directions on the labeling for the non stick cookware use and care before using. When I used it last night to stir fry pork and vegetables, per my usual recipe, it immediately started smoking very heavily and gave off a chemical smell. It turned out that the inside of the pan was burned and lost some coating. However, the worst was that the pan had melted on my induction stove and lost some of the coating on the bottom of the pan. It was scary! My induction stove-top was in pristine condition before using this pan. It took over 45 minutes to get the coating removed from the induction stove. This item should be immediately removed from the stores and Xylan non stick coating banned.
