Which HOT WOK should you choose? 30 cm vs. 35 cm wok pan

At HOT WOK, we offer two popular wok sizes – 30 cm and 35 cm in diameter. But which one is right for your kitchen? Here's a simple guide to help you decide based on how many people you're cooking for and how you like to use your wok.

30 cm wok – perfect for 2–4 people

Our 30 cm wok pan is ideal if you're mostly cooking for yourself, your partner or a small family. It's easy to handle, heats up quickly and delivers powerful heat for authentic wok cooking.

Advantages of the 30 cm wok:

• Suitable for 2–4 people

• Fast heating and great heat distribution

• Lightweight and easy to handle

• Perfect match for HOT WOK Original and PRO burners

If you're into quick stir-frying, noodles or fried rice for a smaller group, this size is your go-to.

35 cm wok – for bigger portions and more guests

Do you often cook for friends, family or larger groups? Then our 35 cm wok pan is the way to go – perfect for 4–8 people. You get plenty of space for large portions without losing heat.

What really sets this wok apart is the two-handle design – one large handle at the back and a supportive front grip. This makes it much easier to lift and control the wok when it's full of food.

Advantages of the 35 cm wok:

• Ideal for 4–8 people

• Extra-large cooking surface

• Two handles for easier lifting and pouring

• Great for large stir-fries, stews, or batch cooking

Which size fits your needs?

Still unsure? Go for the 35 cm – it gives you more space and flexibility, especially when you're entertaining or meal prepping.

Ready to cook with plenty of room?

No matter which size you choose, both woks are made of high-quality carbon steel and will quickly become a staple in your kitchen. And remember – both pans pair perfectly with our powerful HOT WOK gas burners.
