Considering Viking electric range or cooktop and double oven
Comments (15)Yep, it is not the induction. I wanted induction, but my budget won't support it at the moment. Had it been induction, both would have been mine, budget be damned ;-). deb52899, keep in touch with the dealer, and other dealers in your area. I got a quote for the same unit I bought from a local dealer and they quoted $6400 with tax, delivery and installation for a "retail" version. Mine was identical, just overstock. They probably would have picked up the new in box overstock and kept the extra $3k. Look for showroom models, OTC and other options. You can save a lot going that direction. I just returned from the distributor and picked up a range hood that was in the OTC area. I picked up a VWH3048SS with a VINV600 blower installed. Retail was about $1600 for the pair, $350 was my price. If you can work with separate cooktop and ovens, they had several induction cooktops there. Not big discounts on them though..

Comments (4)Sorry all, I had posted this message before learning how to be informed when reply messages were posted. Just found this old thread. Thanks for the comments. Well, I've been working on the plan to try to move the cooktop to a wall and still have the close access to the fridge and I've nixed the downdraft. So, for now my plan is back on the drawing board and is undecided....See MoreElectric and Induction combination cooktop?
Comments (7)I love my induction, not all of my pans worked on it so I bought some new, but if you have one or 2 specific ones that you like that won't work, there is a disc that you can buy to put under them so that they will work. I have one burner that is huge, so I bought one of the discs so that I can use it if I need to use it but am not using a pan that big. It will also work under a pan thats not magnetic. I couldn't find it in any store but there were several online and they are inexpensive. You can search "induction disc" or something on that order and you'll find some. I haven't used mine yet. I would just go induction and use that for the once in awhile that you use a pan that isn't induction friendly....See MoreJoe Henderson
