Viking appliances: review and lineup

Viking is the brand that brought the pro-style range into American homes, and its Professional 5 and 7 Series still lead with commercial looks and a wide color palette. Headquartered in Greenwood, Mississippi, Viking is now part of Composition Brands, formerly Middleby's residential kitchen unit, as of 2026. La Cornue is a sister brand.

Two Viking products are in our database. The Professional 7 Series 36 dual fuel range starts around $16,279. It has six Elevation burners with brass flame ports from Viking's commercial line, including a 23,000 BTU front burner, VariSimmer on every burner, SureSpark re-ignition, a 5.6 cu ft self-cleaning oven and a Gourmet-Glo infrared broiler. The Professional 5 Series 48 side-by-side refrigerator starts around $12,689 and holds 29.05 cu ft, with a variable-speed DC compressor, Plasmacluster air purification and ENERGY STAR certification. In Viking's current lineup, 7 Series refrigeration is integrated columns, so the 48-inch side-by-side is a 5 Series.

Color is a big part of the appeal: finishes like Pacific Grey, Frost White, Alluvial Blue, Slate Blue and Cast Black, with color-matched control panels on the range. Neither product advertises Wi-Fi.

Viking's warranty is 2 years full on the complete product. Ranges add 5 years limited on burners and elements; refrigeration adds 6 years full and 12 years limited on the sealed system. Both include 90 days cosmetic. No current promotion is listed.

Who should shop Viking: cooks who want six high-output burners at 36 inches and a range in a signature color. Who should skip it: value-focused buyers; our editorial ratings, estimated from specs, score Viking's range lowest on value in its class.

Compare: Viking vs Wolf, Thermador vs Viking and Sub-Zero vs Viking.

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 Viking Professional 5 Series 48-inch side-by-side (VCSB5484) is the fridge for a kitchen built around a Viking range, especially one in a Viking color. It holds 29.05 cubic feet, uses a variable-speed DC compressor, carries Energy Star certification and starts at $12,689 in stainless. One note up front: if you were looking for a 7 Series 48-inch side-by-side, Viking's current built-in lineup only offers this size in the 5 Series. The trade-offs are no advertised Wi-Fi and a 26.25-inch depth.

Questions about Viking

Who owns Viking now?

As of 2026, Viking is part of Composition Brands, the business formerly known as Middleby's residential kitchen unit. La Cornue is part of the same group. Viking's headquarters are in Greenwood, Mississippi. Whatever the ownership, what matters day to day is local authorized service, so ask your dealer who services Viking near you before you buy.

Is Viking a good range brand?

Viking makes powerful pro-style ranges. The 7 Series 36 dual fuel offers a 23,000 BTU burner, VariSimmer on all six burners and many color options. Its weaknesses are price and features: it lists higher than Wolf's 36-inch dual fuel, has a smaller oven and doesn't advertise Wi-Fi.

Does Viking make refrigerators?

Yes. Viking offers built-in refrigeration, including the Professional 5 Series 48-inch side-by-side, which holds 29.05 cu ft and comes in stainless or Viking colors. It carries a 6-year full sealed-system warranty, longer than Sub-Zero's 5. Viking's 7 Series refrigeration is offered as integrated columns.
