Viking Range Sizes: How to Choose Between 30, 36, 48, and 60 Inch Models

Viking ranges come in four standard widths: 30, 36, 48, and 60 inches. Each size serves different kitchen layouts, cooking styles, and household needs. Understanding the practical differences helps you make the right investment.

The 30-inch Viking range is the most compact professional option. It typically includes four burners and a single oven. This size works well in smaller Scottsdale condos, guest houses, and casitas where kitchen space is limited but cooking quality matters.

Moving up to 36 inches adds either a fifth burner or a griddle section. The oven cavity is noticeably larger, accommodating bigger roasting pans and multiple racks comfortably. Many Scottsdale families find this is the ideal balance between space and performance.

The 48-inch Viking range is the most popular choice in Scottsdale luxury homes. It typically features six burners plus a griddle or grill, dual ovens, and ample workspace. DC Ranch and Gainey Ranch kitchens often center around this size.

For serious home chefs and those who entertain frequently, the 60-inch Viking is the ultimate statement. Eight burners, a griddle, and two full-size ovens give you restaurant-level capability. These units require dedicated ventilation rated at 1200+ CFM.

When choosing a size, consider your kitchen island dimensions, ventilation requirements, and how often you cook for groups. In Scottsdale, where outdoor entertaining is year-round, many homeowners pair a 48-inch indoor range with a Viking outdoor grill.

Replacement considerations matter too. If you are replacing an existing range, verify that electrical, gas, and ventilation connections match the new size. Upsizing often requires kitchen modifications that add to the project scope.
