My handle was loose

Easy to use, love the wood handle to grip, seasoning a plus in later clean up!

I love this Wok!The tips on maintaining the handle have been useful as with as much as I've already used it, needed to crank it down a bit.

But the handle isn't very good

Poor quality handle

Like others commented the handle did come loose but reattached easily following what the same commenter said to do(take out screw, shove handle in as far as you can then replace screw) and have not had a problem with it.

she loves the ergonomic handles which make it a lot easier to handle it.thanks so much for coming out with this product.

I love the feel and most everything about it although when shaking it the front handle can get in the way of shaking or flipping the food.

The handle on my wok was a tad loose, which was easily fixed by snugging up the two wood screws holding it in place.

It will be years of a loose handle becoming ever more like a piece of junk

Nice- handle could gave been crafted

The wooden handle stays very cool, and so far I haven't found any discoloration on the wood due to the hot metal.

But FYI.My only complaints are that the steel is a bit too thick for my preferences (making the wok a bit heavy and unwieldy to flip food with) and the handle isn't rock-solid (somewhat understandable, given the mixed materials and construction method)

We have a properly seasoned wok (thanks to youtube).The reason why i am giving 4 stars because the handle was a little bit loose after seasoning and the product label at the handle is faded and barely readable

Just keep in mind that stainless steel handle of wok gets very hot so do not touch it while seasoning

The wood of the handle of the wok dries and shrinks, and the handle may get loose after a few weeks of use; mine did, others report the same thing

Love the wooden handle.

and I have concern that the shorter wooden handle seems you could burn hand on metal of handle when hot..

the handle still gets wicked hot

I considered a four star because the handle doesn't seem the best, but can easily replace it with a good piece of hickory, should it fail

I then reattached the handle, using some wood filler to take-up the wobble-space (probably caused from expanded steel and/or shrunken wood from the heat).As others have mentioned, it is easy to touch the metal where it meets the wooden handle and burn your hand.
