Gourmia Air Fryer Recall: Find GTF7530, Then Get the Free Fix
About 176,000 Gourmia air fryer ovens sold at Target were recalled on 5 November 2026. How to check the label, what the fix is, and why it is not a refund.

The Gourmia air fryer recall announced on 5 November 2026 covers one model: the stainless steel 9-Slice Digital Air Fryer Oven, model GTF7530, the one with two glass French doors. If your air fryer is a basket model, or any other Gourmia number, this recall is not about it. If it is the GTF7530, stop using it and ask Gourmia for the free repair kit. The kit adds a doorstop, and it comes by mail. It is a repair, not a refund.
Two glass doors and the number GTF7530 on the back? Stop using it and ask for the free doorstop kit.
According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), about 175,951 of these ovens were sold at Target stores and on Target.com from October 2021 through June 2026, for about $150. The problem is the spring-loaded doors. A bump can make them close while you are reaching in for hot food. Gourmia has had 57 reports of doors closing that way, and 40 of them ended with burns to hands or wrists.
Is my Gourmia air fryer part of the recall?
Only if it matches all of this. Check it in this order:
- Look at the front. The recalled oven is a stainless steel countertop oven with two glass front doors that open from the middle like French doors, with metal handles. A pull-out basket air fryer does not match.
- Unplug it and let it cool, then turn it around. The CPSC says a label on the back shows the model number GTF7530.
- Read the code on that label. The recall covers ovens whose label codes run from 3021 to 0126. The notice gives the range but doesn't explain the format, so if your code is close to either end, or you can't read it, call Gourmia. Don't guess.
- Still have the box? The model number and the UPC 810002862779 are printed on the packaging too.
- Write down what you found (model, code, where and when you bought it). Gourmia will want these details when you ask for the kit.
The CPSC lists it as recall number 27-069, which is handy to quote when you call.
What does the fix look like, and do I get my money back?
The fix is a free repair kit sent by mail. It contains an extra doorstop and instructions for fitting it. The CPSC lists the remedy as "Repair". It does not offer a refund or a replacement. Several of today's top search suggestions ask about a "refund", so to be clear: going by the official notice, you get a part, not your $150 back.
Until the kit arrives, the CPSC says to stop using the oven. That's inconvenient in the weeks before Thanksgiving, when a second oven is most useful. Use your main oven or another appliance for now. Don't try to fix the door yourself with something you rigged up. The kit exists so the fix is done the way the maker tested it.
To ask for the kit, Gourmia's contact in the notice is 888-834-0092, Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. You can also use the "Recall Information" link at the top of gourmia.com. For more on getting money back when a recall does offer it, see can you get a refund for a recalled product.
Is there a Gourmia recall list? Two notices are easy to mix up
People also search for a "Gourmia recall list". Two federal safety notices about Gourmia cooking appliances made the news in 2026. They work very differently:
| Air fryer oven (Nov 2026) | Pressure cooker (Feb 2026) | |
|---|---|---|
| Model | GTF7530, 9-slice, two glass doors | GPC625, 6-quart |
| Type of notice | Recall with the maker | CPSC warning, no agreed recall |
| Problem named | Doors can close when bumped | Lid can open while still under pressure |
| Reports | 57 door reports, 40 burns | 5 incidents, 4 with severe burns |
| Units | About 175,951 | About 43,500 |
| Sold | Target, Oct 2021 – Jun 2026, about $150 | Best Buy and others, 2017 – 2020, $50 – $80 |
| What to do | Stop using it and get the free repair kit | Stop using it and throw it away |
The pressure cooker notice is the stricter one. CBS News reported in February 2026 that the CPSC told owners to stop using the GPC625 and dispose of it. The agency also said the hidden float valve and wrong fill markings in the inner pot add to the danger. Because the importer and the retailer had not agreed to a recall the CPSC found acceptable, the agency issued a warning instead. A warning comes with no kit, and there is no recall program to send it to. Best Buy told CBS it had stopped selling the product years ago and asked buyers to contact the maker.
Neither notice covers every Gourmia product. Check your model number against the notice. Don't judge by brand alone.
Bought it used or got it as a gift? The recall still applies
The fix is tied to the oven, not to the receipt. An oven picked up at a yard sale, from a neighbour, or from a local marketplace listing in Maryland, Virginia or DC is the same oven. Check the label the same way. If you don't have a receipt, note that when you contact Gourmia and give them the model and code.
If you're shopping secondhand this season, the CPSC's notice is useful from the other side too. It says federal law prohibits anyone from selling a product under a CPSC recall. Before you pay for any used air fryer oven:
- Ask for a photo of the back label first, and check the model against the CPSC's recall search.
- If it's a GTF7530, ask whether the doorstop kit was fitted. If it wasn't, don't buy it.
- Open and close the doors a few times. They should stay where you leave them and not snap shut.
- Walk away from a GPC625 pressure cooker at any price, because the advice for that one is to throw it out.
We cover the general habit in how to check if a product is recalled before you buy used and the model-number method for kitchen appliances in used air fryer or pressure cooker? check the model number first.
How do I report a problem or get recall alerts?
If a door snapped shut on you, or you had any other injury or near miss with an appliance, you can report it at SaferProducts.gov or call the CPSC hotline at 800-638-2772. Reports like these are how the agency learns about a pattern. The CPSC also offers free email alerts for each new recall, which is the easiest way to hear about the next one before someone else's burn makes the news.

The bottom line
- Only one Gourmia air fryer is in this recall: the two-door GTF7530 oven sold at Target, codes 3021 to 0126 on the back.
- The remedy is a free doorstop kit by mail, not a refund. Stop using the oven until it's fitted.
- The 2026 pressure cooker notice is a different, stricter case: GPC625, stop using it and throw it away.
- Used or gifted ovens count too. Check the label before Thanksgiving cooking starts, and before you buy one secondhand.
