Viking vs other brands

The cost of Viking is generally comparable to Wolf ranges, and may be somewhat similar to the cost of Miele stovetops or ranges, although Viking will usually cost a little more than a Miele.

Viking size

Another major factor that affects the price of Viking appliances like a Viking cooking range and stove is the size of the appliances cooktops you are buying. A Viking gas range comes in a variety of different standard sizes including five burner and six burner models. You may also get double ovens or single ovens, and you may opt to either get a full Viking range with ovens built-in or to get a standalone Viking cooktop and then ovens separately. Generally, the larger the Viking appliance, the more burners and/or the more ovens that you get, the greater the cost of the appliance will be.

Viking features

Stoves and ranges sold with the Viking logo also have a variety of different features and optional add-ons that you can consider. For instance, you may want to get a Viking grill pan to go on your range, so that you can grill indoors. You may also want to consider having a Wok adaptor, so that you can cook food in a Wok on very high head using your Viking. The more BTUs (power the burners have) and the more features your Viking has, the more the cost will be.
