Capability

Most of the items of Viking cookware are coated with 3 aluminum sheets, in between these aluminum sheets there is stainless steel exterior and interior. The aluminum sheets allow the heat to conduct easily and quickly enabling the pan to get heated at a suitable temperature within no time.

The walls of pots and pans are heat-retaining and some sets have angled out cone-shaped sides that support better evaporation.

Glass lids allow the cook/chef to see whether the food is fully cooked or not without any extra effort of picking the lid all the time to check the food. 

Durability

Viking cookware sets are useful for all types of kitchens but are specially designed for chefs. All the handles of pans and pots are strong and made with high-quality material.

All the units are safe to use in the oven up to a specific temperature level.

The material used inside the pans and pots does not react with the food you cook, not only this it also keep the taste/flavor of the meal intact.

You should not get worried about getting scratches inside or outside of the cookware, as it is resistant to any type of pressure. 

The sets can be easily washed in a dishwasher after use. 

Deal Breakers

As per customers’ comments and reviews, some sets are not induction cooktop compatible. Some reported the rusting signs on the enamel-coated sets, some said that handles get a little warm while cooking but it is obvious that handles may get even hotter when cookware is kept in a closed cooktop i.e. oven.

Some users complained that the handles of the frying pans are too long, and meals that are known to stick in the pans must stick in the pan. This might also not attractive for users that the frying pans of some sets of Viking cookware have no lids.

Despite all these deal breakers, Viking cookware is proven for the best cookware for professional and expert chefs.
