Is the rack that comes with this canner divided? Or does is it flat so that the jars can touch when you put them in?

There are dividers, however the jars can tip some & therefore touch. Being sure that each jar is set in straight should remedy the tipping. Need also to be able to lift the rack straight up, or the jars may tip when taking them out of the water.

I'm not 100% sure exactly what your question is. I can tell you that the rack that comes with the canner is raised just like any other bath / pressure canning rack so that the base of the jar is raised from the bottom of the canner. The only difference between this bath canner and a standard size one is the larger size.

This rack is divided to accept 9 qt jars at once, but you can put more pt. jars in which is what we do. This is a great canner!

Both halves cannot be placed flat. As the pictures shows it, the back is upright. I keep winter boots, shoes, etc. there along with a re-purposed milk crate that gloves and other assorted winter items get tossed into. This has been one the best investments that I've ever made. The quality is commercial grade...extremely sturdy. The bottom shelf is used more than I thought it would be. Love it!!

These are flat topped jars.. If you have space to rack you can definitely do that

Not flat. You could set it on its side, or put it in the bottom wide drawer.

YES and YES. The jar is squared off but with rounded edges. It is easy to fit with others on a self, less slippery, bulky and easy to carry with wet hands or carrying two together than the all round ones. Don't get me wrong I love my 5 liter round but I am more careful about carrying them from pantry to kitchen.

There are two (2) racks and a bamboo lid. The racks interlock with each other so it doesn't matter which one is put on which! In fact I often rotate the racks during steaming to help equalize the cooking!

The rack is "U" shaped. It sits about one inch off the bottom in the center. Then it curves up on each side to the top. The center flat portion is about four inches side to side. Hope this helps.

I've brought this canner with my pint jar pickles to a rolling boil then quieted it down to a simmer. It's deep enough to cover the jars, have the rolling boil going and not boil over--for me. I've not used it with quart jars, however...

It is divided. On the left there are shelves, three I think. and on the right the top third is a drawer and the bottome 2/3 is a cabinet. I am not at home so I cannot measure it at present. It is a beautiful cabinet and well worth the price though. I love it!

Yes, there are dividers for each of the trays. The dividers from left to right are permanent but then you have small dividers to make smaller sections. I used some of the dividers for my beads etc but then I left some full length so I could put multiple individual containers in them. That way I don't have to repack all my beads, I can lay the round or square holders inside. Hope this helps.

yes I use pint and 1/2 pt jars in it. I do not stack them as I do not have the tray to do multiple levels

both sides are flat. I use them to make gummie candies, and they work great

It's because the bottom isn't flat and no they don't make one that is flat. Most canners have a raised bottom so the glass jars don't come in contact with the heat source.

Rack is different than the one that originally came with the pot. The other had separators for jars. This doesn't. This works great!

The rack is V shaped. In the center it is 5/8 inches from the bottom. The top edge of the V is level with the top edge of the pan which is 3 1/8 inches high.

Mostly flat. There is a drain indention around the outer edge. I sure do love mine. I like having the wire rack as well as the broil top.
