Viking Cooking Ranges

Viking Cooking Ranges at Plesser's Appliances

Viking ranges, available at Plesser's Appliances, come from the company that created the professional-style range for the home in 1987. Built in Greenwood, Mississippi, the lineup spans gas, dual fuel, electric, and induction across the 3, 5, and 7 Series in widths from 30 inches to 66 inches.

The Brand That Started the Category
Viking built the first commercial-style range engineered for residential use, which is the reason the professional look exists in home kitchens at all. That heritage shows up in heavy construction, commercial-derived burner design, and a build standard aimed at decades rather than years.

Three Series, One Platform
The 3 Series is the entry into Viking's professional styling. The 5 Series adds output, features, and finish depth. The 7 Series is the top tier with the highest burner output and the most refined construction. All three share the underlying engineering, so the series decision is about how much performance and finish you need.

VariSimmer and Burner Output
Viking's VariSimmer setting holds a genuinely low, even flame on every surface burner rather than cycling, which is what makes a high-output cooktop usable for sauces and long reductions. Paired with sealed burners at the top of residential output, that range from high to low is the defining performance characteristic. Confirm output for your width and series.

Color and Finish Program
Viking offers ranges in a wide standard color palette plus custom options, with metal trim choices, which few professional brands match. If the kitchen is being designed around a color, the range can anchor it. Colors are built to order, so settle finish early and factor lead time into the schedule.

Fuel, Ventilation, and Installation Planning
Gas requires supply sized to output; dual fuel needs both gas and 240V; induction and electric need substantial 240V service, which frequently drives a panel evaluation in older Long Island homes. Ventilation must be sized to burner output, not range width. Talk to the team at Plesser's Appliances about series, width, fuel type, color, lead times, and hood pairing.
