Viking Professional 7 Series 36-inch Dual Fuel Range, 6 Burners review

The Viking Professional 7 Series 36-inch dual fuel range (VDR73626B) is for cooks who want restaurant-style burners and a range that comes in color. It brings six Elevation burners with a 23,000 BTU front burner, VariSimmer on every burner, a 5.6-cubic-foot self-cleaning oven and a Gourmet-Glo infrared broiler. It starts at $16,279. The trade-offs are steep pricing, no advertised Wi-Fi, and the lowest editorial value rating among 36-inch ranges here. If you want the pro look in a bold color with a 23,000 BTU front burner, it's an obvious shortlist pick.

Best for: Serious cooks · Gas-flame cooking · Design-forward kitchens

Design and build

Viking practically invented the home pro range, and the 7 Series is its top tier. It's freestanding at 36 inches, in stainless or a color such as Pacific Grey, Frost White or Alluvial Blue, with a color-matched control panel. If you're after a bold, colorful kitchen, few brands make it this easy.

Viking's headquarters is Greenwood, Mississippi, but the factory isn't stated on the product page, so don't assume "Made in USA" without confirming. Viking is now part of Composition Brands, formerly Middleby's residential unit.

Color is where Viking separates itself from Wolf, which offers black and white bodies but not Viking's broad palette.

Performance on paper

Viking rates the front burner at 23,000 BTU, with several 15,000 BTU burners and one 8,000 BTU rear burner. The Elevation burners use brass flame ports derived from Viking's commercial line, VariSimmer allows low settings on every burner, and SureSpark re-ignites a flame that blows out.

The 5.6-cubic-foot electric oven self-cleans and uses Rapid Ready preheat. The Gourmet-Glo infrared broiler handles steaks and gratins. On paper, it's slightly smaller than Wolf's 6.3-cubic-foot oven, and Viking doesn't list a convection type or mode count in our data, so ask your dealer how it compares.

The 8,000 BTU rear burner is your gentle option, but VariSimmer means you aren't limited to it for sauces; every burner can be turned down low.

Who it's for (and who should skip it)

Buy it if you want maximum burner output, love color and are building a Viking-centered suite. Skip it if smart features matter, if you're value-conscious, or if service coverage for Viking is thin in your area. The 4-burner-plus-griddle VDR7364GSS is the variant to consider if you want a griddle.

It's also a natural partner for the Viking 5 Series 48-inch refrigerator, which comes in Viking color finishes too.

Price, warranty and service

Viking lists a starting price of $16,279; propane is the VDR73626BSSLP. Warranty is 2 years full on the complete product, 5 years limited on gas burners and electric elements, and 90 days cosmetic. That 5-year burner coverage is a nice backstop. As always, confirm a local authorized Viking technician before buying.

Color finishes may change both price and lead time, so get them in writing.
