Winco Anti-Jamming Steam Pan, Full-Size x 6-Inch

Got this to use for boiling down maple syrup in a barrel and it worked great!! Was afraid it may be to thin for the heat I needed to put to it but it has held up great!!! Going on second year now for boiling maple syrup.

I like the fact that the pan is stainless steel. It could be heavier gauge metal but it is adequate for my needs. Actually, I (Gary) bought the pan for mixing up tiling mortar in and scooping it up with tiling trowel. It works pretty good but not as well as I had envisioned,

I bought this to use as a litter box for my cats. It’s wonderful and stays clean and over a year later there is absolutely no smell and no scratches. I did put it down inside a larger plastic tote, but it works just fine.

Arrived in perfect condition even though it was "used". Works great as a litter box for my bunny and first nicely in standard depth closet.

I ordered two of these full size, 6-inch deep pans. They were delivered in an undamaged box within two days of ordering them.But they were jammed together so tightly it took a lot of time and effort to pry them apart without damaging them. Good news: the metal is thin enough that once they were separated, we were able to straighten the rims back to normal. A thin sheet of plastic wrap had been place between the pans, to no good purpose.We didn't dare heat the bottom pan to expand it because the plastic might have melted and been impossible to remove. If brown wrapping paper had been used between the pans, I don't think the pans would have stuck together so tightly. Ironically, the pans had been packed in the box with brown paper for protection during shipping.The pan which had been stuck on the inside had no damage. But the outside pan had 4 large dents in the corners plus one tiny dent on the bottom that I am most worried about. You see, in about a week we will be boiling maple sap in it over a very hot fire to make syrup, and I am concerned that this tiny dent, being so deep, is going to become a hole and the pan will become unusable.I am including pics of the two worst dents, plus the tiny, sharp dent from both the outside and the inside.When these pans have been put to use, I will come back and rate them again. Crossing my fingers.Edit: Our second maple syrup season is coming to an end, and these pans have held up. One has developed a 2-inch long deformation on one of the long side rims, but it doesn't impact stability. Upgrading from 3 to 4 stars.

I got this with another part as a sifting litter box for my cat. It works very well for this purpose! I love it.

It seems decent, but it's very thin steel, a lot thinner than a typical stainless tray or pot. Dents easily. Otherwise not bad.

These pans are deep and wide, which gives them the perfect dimensions for my back woods maple oven. They are sturdy so you can put the lip of the pans on the concrete and it holds with a full pan of sap with no worries of it giving under the high heat of the fire below. I mean I got well over 600 degrees and these pans didn't even flinch, nor did the sap burn. I got a better boil from these pans and they were a more efficient then using a stock pot because of the surface area. I used less wood and got a higher temperature boil. And the clean up? Super easy and fast. Stainless is the way to go, just put the money into this investment, you will have it for years to come. It's WELL worth the price.
