'05 CDI- Is one row radiator adequite?

I needed to replace the radiator in my brothers '05 E320 CDI W211, so I ordered and received a Spectra Premium unit. To my surprise, it has only one row of tubes. The factory one had two. I can't see how manufacturers can sell a radiator with half the cooling capacity. The description says "Unit is designed to original equipment (OE) fit, form and function requirement".
It looks identical, so it should fit just fine. It is the "function" aspect I am concerned about. I just wonder if I should send it back and get a two row (Nissens or Valeo).....Rich
