Frypans & Woks - Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between electric and non-electric frypans?

Electric frypans have a built-in heating element and plug into a power outlet, which creates consistent heat and simple temperature control without using a stovetop. Non-electric frypan options are used on gas or electric cooktops and rely on the stove for heat. Electric frypan models are often chosen for their portability, especially in kitchens with limited space or powered camping setups.

Yes! Quality electric woks can reach high temperatures suitable for stir-frying. This allows food to cook quickly and evenly, helping lock in flavour in a similar way to stovetop cooking.

Most electric frypans and woks are not dishwasher safe, as the heating element and plug can’t get wet. Some models do feature removable non-stick bowls that can be washed separately. Always check the manufacturer’s care instructions before cleaning.

Yes, they are energy-efficient, as they heat up quickly and use less power than a full stove!

With regular use and proper care, electric frypans and woks can last for many years. Lifespan ultimately depends on how often they’re used, the quality of the materials, and how well they’re cleaned and maintained.

Explore our Electric Frypans & Woks 

Whether you’re prepping meals for the family during the week or hosting on the weekend, a good electric frypan or wok is a real lifesaver. It’s the perfect ‘backup’ for when your stovetop is full and because we stock reliable names like Breville and Sunbeam, you know it’s built last.

Electric Frypans 

Electric frypans are a multi-purpose and easy-to-use option. With a wide, flat cooking surface and adjustable temperature controls, they’re great for frying, sautéing and simmering. Thanks to their portability, electric frypans are a sensible choice for kitchens with limited stovetop space, student housing, or even camping setups with access to power. With options ranging from small frypans to larger family-sized models, there’s an electric frypan to suit how and where you cook. 

Electric Woks 

Electric woks are similar to electric frypans, except they are designed with a deeper, curved bowl that supports fast, high-heat cooking. This shape allows ingredients to cook evenly while being tossed, making electric woks the pan of choice for stir-fries, noodles, curries and other one-pan meals. 

Electric Frypan & Wok Sizes 

Electric frypans and woks are available in a range of different sizes to suit your cooking needs. Smaller models, like a small electric wok or compact skillet, are great for quick solo meals or kitchens with limited storage. While larger electric frypan and wok options offer extra capacity for family meals, entertaining or meal prepping.

How to Clean Electric Frypans & Woks 

Make sure you let your electric frypan or wok cool completely before you start cleaning and always unplug the appliance from the socket. For non-stick surfaces, stick with a soft sponge and mild detergent to help protect the coating. If you’ve got a stainless-steel model, you might need to put in a little more elbow grease but they are built to handle it! 

For stubborn food residue or those dreaded cooked-on stains, soaking the electric frypan in warm, soapy water can help loosen buildup before scrubbing. Avoid abrasive scourers or harsh cleaning products, as these can damage surfaces over time. Some electric frypan models include removable bowls that are able to be thrown in the dishwasher, making cleaning even easier. Always check the manufacturer’s care instructions to keep your appliance in top condition.
