Q: QuestionWould this fit in a depth cutout of 19" by any chance?(2 answers)
A: AnswerNo, our 19" cutout was too small and required a little of the counter to be shaved off. Viking recommends a cutout depth of: 19-1/8” (48.6 cm) minimum to 20-1/8” (51.1 cm) maximum.Answered by kitchen

Q: QuestionIs there a 30’ gas cooktop available by Viking or Bosch?(2 answers)
A: AnswerYes. I love love my Viking 6 burner 30” cooktop. It’s easy to clean, and is so pretty! Love having 6 burners. My only regret is that I did not ask for more high output burners. But maybe it is a safety feature. Also you will need ventilation for your Viking downdraft (sold separately). It is so powerful that unless I open the Cabinet on my island it blows out the burners. I did not want to drill holes in my cheery wood cabinetry, so this was my choice. But I love it so much too.Answered by Adrienne

Viking- Don't and save your money
I recently purchased a Viking 6 burner VGSU536 gas cooktop. I was drawn to the Viking due to the controls being on the side and less likely to require frequently cleaning. I also trusted the Viking name. I have been disappointed from the first week with my purchase. Not only does the stainless scratch easily but there are host of problems with the product quality. 1. Hard to control the simmer feature. At the lowest settings the burners often go off unexpectedly. 2. Although I like the side mounted controls, they are not intuitive to use, and it is hard to identify which one controls a specific burner. Also, hard to note which are on and which are off. 3. The aluminum trim rings around each burner are very hard to clean and stain from the most mundane spills, Viking says to us a non-scratch cleanser like Bon Ami but unless you have lots of time and a very strong arm, these rings will remain stained. It would be best if these were cast iron and removeable like my old cooktop. 4. Some of the rubber feet on the grates came off the first week. Oh, and Viking suggests washing the grates by hand and drying them. I assume the feet would all come off if you ran them through the dishwasher. 5. Burners don't always light. You have to give the brass burner a shake and then the burner will light. 6. Although covered by warranty, I have already had an ignitor go out. I do like the look of the stovetop, but the performance is no better than your average unit. I gave up a GE Profile due to some age but it lasted 20 years and I should have saved my money and bought another GE.
