Cuisinart Stir Fry, Chef's Classic Stainless 14" Covered - Review

I got this wok from Macy's about 1 month ago. It's a new addition to my cookware cabinet.  So far, I like it a lot.  I'm able to cook different sorts of stir fries, soups, fried rice, and some other random dishes. I have beening using it on medium/low heat according to the instruction. I have been trying to find a nice wok which is not too expensive since they can get pricey sometimes.  I found this one when it was on sale for about 35 bucks (reguarly $80).  I'm still excited I grabbed this at such a good price.

So here are some Pros and Cons....
Pros:
1. Heats up quickly (According to Macy's description, it has an "Aluminum-encapsulated base".  It heats up fairly fast, the main problem for me is that only the bottom part seems to heat up well, the wall of the wok remains at a lower temperature for a long time)
2. Looks and feels very sturdy (well made)
3. Comes with a glass lid (It's great for cooking soups and some other food when you need to cover it)
4. Easy to clean after using (I just use a sponge and wipe off the wok, and it's easier to clean it if you soak the bottom the wok in water for a while, maybe 5-10 minutes)
5. It's safe in freezer and oven, but I haven't tried it yet.


Cons:
1. Stains easily (after a few uses, you can see stains everywhere inside the wok, it might be water stain or food remaining; but it's made for cooking, so the stains don't bother me too much)
2. Food sticks easily on the bottom while cooking, especially eggs and cooked rice (It causes some food waste because a portion of food sticks on the bottom and, often times, burned. Cooking spray doesn't solve the problem. However,  it's pretty easy to clean up after using) 
3. Both the wok and the glass lid are very heavy (it's actually can be bad or good, heaviness=sturdiness I guess)
