Iron can safely be heated to very, very hot temperatures. It has a very high thermal mass, meaning that it can hold a lot of BTUs at any temperature, and it has reasonable thermal conductivity – lower than aluminum or copper but higher than glass or ceramics – meaning that it gains and loses heats slower than other metals but faster than your Pyrex dishes. With high thermal mass, it can transfer a lot of heat to the food without the pot's changing temperature.
The high heat, heavy lid and thermal properties make the dutch oven ideal for baking bread, for which a lot of BTUs need to get into the dough fairly quickly while holding in the steam. The skillet over a flame can handle temperatures exceeding even 500ºF, which is great for searing or browning (via the Maillard reaction) and also for oven roasting.
I bought the wok mainly for roasting vegetables on the stove top during hot summer months when I do not want to turn on the oven. Roasting is an indirect high-temperature dry air heating method, in contrast to baking, broiling or grilling (top or bottom flame,) and frying. It uses less oil than frying (unless you are stir frying,) which creates less spatter, and its high sides catch more spatter anyway. Flipping or tossing the food in a wok is central to the cooking technique, but this cast iron model is too heavy to be shaken and has only loops for handles. I find that a spatula works just fine. The wok's shape makes it easy to move the food around and its weight make it stable on the burner.
Pre-heating the empty wok is a must. This is not a slow cooker. If food is in the wok at the start, it may never reach the desired temperature, and it will sit in there for too long anyway. A down-side is that this wok does take longer to heat up and cool down than I might hope, partially defeating my purpose in the hot summer months (unless I want to heat it over my outdoor grill, which also works just fine.) But it's not too troublesome to be used indoors for most of the summer as well as the rest of the year.

p.s. The price of this item fluctuates widely on Amazon. I paid $19.90 for the 9" wok in 2023.
This mini wok is the perfect size for 2-3 people. I’ve made cauliflower “rice” stir fry, scrambled eggs and sausage and vegetable stir fry in just the short time I’ve owned it. I’m looking forward to using it with a multitude of other dishes as well as it easily goes from stove top to oven. The nice thing is it’s really sturdy, but not too heavy for me to handle as the larger woks are. Even though cast iron is inherently heavy, the smaller size of this makes it super manageable. You will need to use a hot pad or silicone holders to move it when hot, but I’ve had no issues with it staying firmly in place on my gas range since it has a flat bottom, so the only time I’ve used my silicone holder is if I wanted to move the pot to the oven or to another location to cool. Generally, though, I just turn off the gas burner and leave it there until it cools, although this might not work as well on an electric stove.
I currently own this mini wok, a flat griddle pan and a 10 inch high side frying pan all from Lodge. I love that they are made in the USA and between the three don’t see the need for any other cookware except maybe a couple stainless steel pots for boiling things or for soups. Although the shape of this mini wok would work perfectly for those too, they say not to leave acidic things like tomato based foods in cast iron for too long, so I will err on the side of caution because I think this wok will otherwise last a lifetime and will be something I can pass on to my grandchildren. It’s that awesome!
Quality is in line with other lodge products. You'll have edges that have been deburred/grinded to remove sharp edges as well as some spots on the handle where the seasoning has not been fully black (Oil dripped off from pan during Lodge's seasoning process). This is NOT a defect and is part of Lodge's normal manufacturing process. Rust is not a problem if you're familiar with taking care of cast iron. If you're a first time user of cast iron, I'd suggest watching some videos online before giving this wok a bad review.
I wish Amazon did a better job of packaging. There's no insulation of the product whatsoever. The box it came it was mangled because the wok was tossed around inside during shipping. Luckily my wok wasn't damaged. I'd suggest inspecting your wok after receiving it through Amazon and make sure there's no cracks or damage.
Overall great product and I definitely recommend picking it up. If you're looking for a rice bowl size wok, Lodge does make a 6" version. I'm happy with my 9". Highly satisfied. 🥘

If you're buying it to make a stir-fry for one, it's not going to work because there isn't enough room to stir without everything flying out of the pan. However, this tiny wok is perfect for what I wanted it for: Making a small meatloaf for 1 - 2 people and baking a small loaf of bread in the oven.
Like all Lodge products, it's top quality and pre-seasoned but you still need to hand wash it with warm soapy water and season it yourself before using it. That means that after you wash it and dry it well, you rub some oil all over it - inside and out - wipe excess off with a paper towel - and put it in a 350 oven for 1 hour. And you'll want to do this once a month or so for maintenance which helps build up a nice non-stick coating over time. Also, the more you cook in it, the better it gets. Just like any cast-iron pan.
