Okay so I rolled the dice and went ahead and purchased that 20 gallon pot on Amazon that comes with a valve and thermometer even though it had zero reviews. I got it for $150 shipped with no sales tax. I figured since it was shipping direct from Amazon if I had any issues returning it would be simple.
It arrived yesterday. The packing was great, double boxed and Styrofoam for padding. The outer boxed had been dinged up just a bit by the shipping company but the inner box and the pot itself were in perfect shape:
I'll skip directly to the part everyone wants to know about, the bottom of the kettle. The bottom appears to be relatively thick. I did the best I could to try to show this in the photo. You can see here it's a raised bottom with what appears to be either multiple layers or one thick layer:
The inside is smooth and the handles feel extremely solid.
The valve and thermo didn't come pre-installed but all the parts are there and they even included a set of instructions which was nice. The thermometer is huge, I should have no troubles reading it from a distance and it has an adjustment screw too :
Overall I'm very happy. For $150 shipped it was an amazing deal. It looks as if Amazon is out of them now but here's the link if they get more in: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HEQNBPO/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20
