Works as advertised. I used this to make a wood fired maple syrup evaporator out of a 55 gallon barrel. The pan fit on top perfectly and we boiled down 170 gallons of sap and made four gallons of syurp from trees in our back yard. It doesn't get any better than that. 100 percent natural and the best tasting maple syrup you'll ever have, and we made it ourselves (and you can too).
It's not truly a divided flow as was indicated but rather the divider down the middle doesn't go all the way to the bottom of the pan but serves as a stiffener that reinforces and strengthens the pan. I knew this prior to purchase but for small batch operation it doesn't matter. The stiffener was for me was more important and I'm extremally happy with how well it is made. I have a feeling my family will be using this evaporator pan for many many years.
