Hello, I don't think there is a problem of choosing a simple wok in the ordinary supermarket like Walmart ;) Just go to a consultant and ask them to help you.

A good wok is one of the most versatile pans in the kitchen. Beyond being the best choice for a stir-fry, it's also the ideal vessel for deep-frying, steaming, and indoor smoking. It is the most commonly used pan in my kitchen. Look for carbon steel woks that are at least 14-gauge—about two millimeters thick—which won't bend when you press on the sides. Avoid nonstick woks at all costs. Most nonstick coatings cannot handle the high heat necessary for a proper stir-fry. I have chosen my wok after reading the article about the best woks.
