Tefal Generous Cook 28cm wokpan review

The Tefal Generous Cook 28cm is a roomy non-stick wok from a trusted brand. You get a titanium non-stick surface, a glass lid with a steam vent, a preheat indicator that tells you when the pan is ready, and a base that works on all stovetops, including induction. It’s a solid pick for a household that cooks stir-fries and saucy ulam most days.

How well does it cook?

The titanium non-stick coating is the main draw. Fried rice, pancit, and gising-gising slide around cleanly, so you cook with less oil and wash up faster. The preheat indicator changes color when the wok is hot enough, which takes the guesswork out of searing. Add food too early and it steams; wait for the signal and it browns properly. The deep 28cm bowl gives you room to toss a family-sized batch without flinging food over the sides, and the glass lid lets you switch from stir-frying to steaming or braising in the same pan.

How well is it made?

This is an aluminum-body wok, so it heats fast and evenly and stays light enough to toss one-hand. It works on gas, electric, and induction, so it fits most Pinoy kitchens now and if you switch cooktops later. The trade-off is the usual one for non-stick: keep the heat low to medium and use wooden or silicone utensils, because metal and very high heat wear the coating down over time. That also means it won’t give you the fierce, smoky char of a bare carbon-steel wok, but for everyday home cooking that’s a fair trade.

Is it sulit?

Around ₱5,300 as of July 23, 2026, though Tefal woks like this often drop closer to ₱2,650–₱3,300 during Shopee sales, so it’s worth waiting for a sale. Check the latest price on Shopee. At full price it costs more than a generic wok, but you’re paying for a proven brand, a coating that lasts longer with care, and the bundled glass lid. If you cook daily, the per-year cost is small.

Who should buy it

Buy this if you cook stir-fries, pancit, and saucy ulam often and want one roomy non-stick wok that also steams and braises, and you can catch it on sale. If you rarely stir-fry, or you specifically want high-heat, smoky wok cooking, a cheaper carbon-steel wok suits you better.
