There are stoves, and then there are Vikings. With the introduction of Viking's newly developed gas ranges, including the 30-in.-wide Custom Series range ($4,250), professional chefs and cooking enthusiasts have new reasons to praise the consummate kitchen-appliance brand. Viking's latest offerings have everything consumers have come to expect from the brand — its patented burner system, a surefire ignition and a thermostat-controlled griddle — as well as a scope of design options. Unafraid to make a statement in the kitchen, these ranges have an updated grate and chrome bezels and are available in racing red, mint julep, golden mist and 21 other colors.
