If anyone is buying their appliances for aesthetics over quality & performance, they shouldn't be shopping at high-end appliance stores, let them shop at places like Home Depot, Lowes, and Best Buy. Not to mention that they probably haven't done any research on them to begin with !
NEVER BUY VIKING appliances! I purchased all Viking appliances for my kitchen about two years ago. The refrigerator, the dishwasher ,the stove and oven.It really sucks.The refrigerator got a crack at the bottom few months after purchase. And then the freezer broke down and the temperature was too high to freeze food at all! I spent a lot of money on repair for several times and it broke down again and again after each repair! The technicians are so familiar with Viking and they told me that they could not give any warranty because Viking refrigerator will definitely break down after repair within two months. I don’t have any refrigerator to use and I have to repair it again and again. Viking warranty is only 1 year and customers have to pay high fee for repair after that. That is worst quality I experienced with a refrigerator. The Viking dishwasher , stove and oven don’t work well either. Sometimes the dishwasher didn’t start to work when I pushed the start button. Sometimes when it finished working and you can find the dishes are still covered with detergents . The oven timer doesn’t work at all. I have to set up an alarm on my phone when I am baking something with the oven. I really wonder how such a bad quality appliances can survive in the market! I can’t imagine how many customers are suffering from such bad quality and service!
Thanks for this particular comparison guys...much appreciated!
I love that this channel exists. Main dude is out of central casting for major appliance store proprietor. The coffee could be bourbon who knows.
Central casting for an appliance dealer.....I have underachieved in my life ;(
Disagree. Own it.
Great review!
Please do a comparison between the Thor 48 and the Mono gram 48 thanks
I'm genuinely confused. Why are you comparing a brand you won't even carry?
We were one of the original dealers.....We have also fixed more Viking ranges than I would say almost anyone...
@YaleAppliance1 why did you stop carrying viking? Are there reliability concerns? Specifically with gas ranges Thank you

Maybe...
For people that actually care what their homes look like aesthetics are part of it. Sort of silly to argue otherwise
