Customer Reviews for VEVOR Maple Syrup Evaporator Pan 24x18x6 Inch Stainless Steel Maple Syrup Boiling Pan for Boiling Maple Syrup

Bought this for our backyard maple syrup production. I have 12 taps this year here in Vermont. Hope to make 3 to 4 gallons of syrup. We use the pan on a Camp Chef double 30000 btu burner propane stove. With 2 inches of sap it heats quickly and evaporates about 2 1/2 gallons of sap per hour. The preheater is helpful to add sap without killing the boil and when things are running well you can crack the preheater valve and keep the boil going nicely. Some inner pan divisions would be nice for drawing off finished or close up syrup but I use the pan to concentrate the syrup enough to finish the batch on the kitchen stove. I think the pan would evaporate sap at a quicker pace and heat a bit more evenly than my 2 burner propane stove if I sat it on a cinder block or barrel wood stove. Maybe next year. All in all I think you'll like this pan, the price is fair, no leaks from the welds. The face of the fittings for the valves bottom out before you can get them tight so you need some extra teflon tape to prevent/reduce leaks. The valves and thermometer that come with the pan do not leak and seem to be of reasonable quality. The thermometer reads in Celsius - it is helpful but I don't use it to determine when it is time to draw off for finishing.

Well made pan that sits on top of my blackstone 3 burner out door griddle, worked great would buy again definitely recommend to any one

There were a couple pin holes in it that I should look into getting fixed. But the price was right and the top lip helps the sides hold their shape. Burned on a fire 4-5 times with no major issues. Would have liked to have had s longer nipple but the one they supplied worked ok.

Good price, fast delivery and ease of use. Was one small pin hole size leak on corner seem but didn’t cause any issues.

We are very pleased with the evap pan we purchased. So far so good. Holds 15 gallons of sap easily, heats up quickly and faucet makes it easy to drain. Hopefully it'll hold up for many seasons to come.

Worth the money. Didn't get 5 stars because \"stainless\" valves already have surface rust and inside was not \" mirror finish\",rather more of a brushed finish. Still boiled good and held sap at all the welds.on my setup got about 5 to 6 gph.

I like be the pan. It arrived quickly and in one piece. It was as described. I only wish I could actually move sap from one channel to the next as the viscosity increases. But that would probably be alit more than I paid for. Everything went together fine except the thermometer does not work. I need to order a new one and at that time I will review there cus service

I would like to say I was very surprised at the quality of this cooker with the warming contanor. All welds look great way thicker then i expected heavy duty should last a life time if I can keep from burning it. I have 40 trees tapped and get about 20 gallons of sap a day. Im cooking with gas and it is keeping up quite well. I did put this on a 3 burner cook top that i also purchased on Amazon. Well worth the money! If your on the fence just buy it you will also be surprised.

Fast delivery! Thermometer and ball valve are both too high..you better have help or make something so that you can pull your pan over onto something with a pitch so you can empty it.

Great product for the price. Meets expectations. Would love to have more products to choose from...they are very nice.
