New Product Spotlight: The Viking 5 Series Collection

Cooking isn’t just the process of making food to eat. It’s an act of creation – some might even say magic. When you cook, you fuel bodies, nourish relationships and satisfy souls. The right appliances can give you the power to create this magic on a professional level, elevating every dish you create. Treat yourself and your diners to the Viking 5 Series Collection. 

The Collection 

The Viking 5 Series Collection is a high-performance line of appliances designed to look and function beautifully: rangetops, cooktops, ovens, and ventilation. Each can take your kitchen from an everyday space to an area that a professional chef would love to make home. These ranges, hoods, ovens, and dishwashers are not only available in stainless steel and white but also available in any of the 14 colors from the Delta Hues Color Collection.  Breathtaking options like Cobalt Blue and Apple Red make any kitchen unique and striking.

Ranges 

The wide collection of ranges includes gas, dual fuel self-cleaning, open burner, electric self-cleaning, and induction self-cleaning ranges. Thoughtful features make every moment a true experience, like the SoftLit™ LED Lights. They highlight the sleek BlackChrome™ knobs – a Viking exclusive. Choose from 30”, 36”, 48”, and 60” ranges.

Find room for the biggest dishes with the 36” gas range. It fits standard and commercial-sized pans alike. Keep an eye on your creations with RackView™ Trimless Windows. A 20% larger space gives you greater visibility that makes a big difference. You can monitor progress easily with just a glance through the expansive windows. The ranges also have GentleClose™ Doors that close slowly. This means no accidental door slams that could cause cakes and souffles to fall flat! 

Rangetops 

The perfect rangetop has to offer plenty of BTUs, and the 5 Series does this with style. Pick the right size for your kitchen: 30”, 36”, or 48”. Both the gas and dual fuel models feature a 15,000 BTU pro-Sealed Burner System and an 18,5000 BTU TruPowerPlus™ Burner. Practically speaking, this means you have enough fuel to reach high temperatures and maintain them for extended periods of time. The greatest cooking challenges are no match for the Viking 5 Series! 

You can also achieve perfect temperature control, even on the lowest settings, with the VariSimmer™ Setting. This allows the most delicate of dishes to cook to perfection. Simmer, stew, or sauté with ease! If you prefer waffles and paninis, there are griddle models that include a thermostatically controlled steel griddle/simmer plate.  

Cooktops 

Built-in cooktops in the Viking 5 Series are designed to fit perfectly within the kitchen. Choose from two size options: 30” and 36”. Each has high-end, useful features like the exclusive BlackChrome™ knobs and the SureSpark™ Ignition System.  

Tired of waiting for water to boil? Not anymore. Viking 5 Series Electric Cooktops offer QuickCook™ surface elements that reach full power in just three seconds. This means you can get to cooking faster and more efficiently than ever before. Or consider Induction Cooktops with innovative MagneQuick™ Induction Elements that use magnetic energy. Enjoy commercial power, responsiveness, and performance with the unique features in the Viking 5 Series. 

Ovens 

What’s important in an oven? Power, precision, and space. Get commercial-grade power and performance with Viking 5 Series Ovens. They have the benefit of the most spacious oven cavities in the industry. Roast a Thanksgiving turkey with room to spare or make multiple meals at once. The ovens in this collection are available in 27” and 30” single and double oven options along with the 30”W Combi Steam/Convect Oven.

If you prefer electric or steam ovens, Viking has models with considerate and premium features.  TruConvec™ Convection Cooking, for example, is an exclusive air circulation system. The convection element is only in the rear of the oven, and it uses fan-forced air. There’s no direct heat from the top or bottom, allowing for even cooking. 

TruGlide™ Full-Extension Oven racks make baking a breeze; they enable you to easily access every dish that goes in or out of the oven. Another feature exclusive to Viking is the Vari-Speed Dual Flow™ convection system. It has the largest fan blade in the industry – 8.5” in diameter. One feature you’ll appreciate every single day is the Rapid Ready™ Preheat system. Enjoy incredibly fast preheating that lets you get to baking and roasting more quickly than ever before. 

Ventilation 

The Viking 5 Series Ventilation Collection was created to match the other Viking cooking appliances and to deliver the best performance possible. Each ventilation hood is engineered to function at premium levels, with the market’s most powerful odor, steam, and smoke extraction. All of this is achieved in near silence, and your kitchen gets the benefit of a beautiful ventilation solution. 

See and feel the beauty in every component, from the dimmable lighting to the seamless design. The look perfectly coordinates with the rest of your Viking kitchen, creating a clean, cohesive and professional look. An environment like this is sure to inspire you to new culinary heights. 

Safety is another important consideration when shopping for kitchen ventilation solutions. The Viking 5 Series will automatically activate the ventilator to full power when the surface temperature of the hood reaches 165°F. This built-in heat sensor also has an automatic fan turn-on for ultimate safety. You can find these same features in updated chimney wall and island hood styles as well. 

Viking ventilation is available to match the Viking cooking products including 30”, 36”, 42”, 48” and 60” widths. In addition, Viking offers custom ventilator systems to allow you to hide your ventilation and use your own custom cabinetry and material options.

Elevate Every Dish 

Food brings emotions to life and forges connections. When you elevate your dishes, you turn your culinary experience into something more meaningful and satisfying. The Viking 5 Series helps you create edible masterpieces on a commercial level but in the comfort of your own kitchen.
