A large air fryer recall is affecting a countertop appliance many home cooks use for quick dinners, reheating leftovers, and small-batch baking. Gourmia and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said on November 5, 2026 that about 175,951 air fryer ovens are being recalled because the doors can close unexpectedly while people are taking out hot food.
Which Gourmia air fryer ovens are included
The recall covers Gourmia Stainless Steel Digital 9 Slice Digital Air Fryer Ovens. According to the CPSC, the affected model number is GTF7530 and the UPC code is 810002862779. The recalled ovens are stainless steel and have two spring-loaded glass front French doors with metal handles.
The agency said shoppers can also check a label on the back of the unit for the model number GTF7530 and codes ranging from 3021 to 0126. Those details matter because Gourmia sells other countertop appliances, and this recall is limited to this specific air fryer oven model.
The CPSC said the ovens were sold at Target stores across the country and on Target.com from October 2021 through June 2026. The listed price in the recall notice is about $150. The importer is The Steelstone Group LLC, doing business as Gourmia, of Brooklyn, New York, and the appliances were manufactured in China.
For readers keeping track of official records, the CPSC lists this action as recall number 27-069. This is a consumer product recall, not an FDA or USDA food recall, so there is no FDA recall number or food hazard classification attached to this notice.
Why the appliance was recalled
According to the CPSC, the hazard involves the oven’s doors unexpectedly closing when bumped. That creates a burn risk for people reaching in to remove hot food, trays, or cookware. In a busy kitchen, where cooks are often moving quickly or wearing oven mitts, that kind of door movement can be especially concerning.
Gourmia reported 57 incidents of the oven doors closing unexpectedly when consumers were retrieving food. The CPSC said those reports led to 40 burn injuries involving consumers’ hands or wrists. The recall notice does not list states individually, and instead says the ovens were sold through Target stores nationwide and online.
That distinction matters because some recalls provide store-by-store or state-by-state distribution lists, but this one does not. Based on the official notice, shoppers should identify the product by model number, UPC, and back-of-unit code rather than by where they live or where they usually shop.
The source material supplied with this prompt included general first-aid advice for minor burns, but the official CPSC recall notice focuses on the product hazard and the repair remedy. Because this is a product recall story, the key takeaway for consumers is to stop using the oven and follow the company’s recall instructions.
What shoppers should do next
The CPSC says consumers should stop using the recalled ovens immediately. Gourmia is offering a free repair kit by mail, and the company said the kit includes an added doorstop plus instructions for installation. The recall notice does not direct consumers to return the appliance to Target for a refund.
Instead, consumers are instructed to contact Gourmia directly. The recall notice lists Gourmia’s toll-free number as 888-834-0092, available Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. It also says consumers can go to Gourmia’s recall information page through the company website for more details.
For home cooks, the practical concern is simple: if this oven is part of your regular meal routine, check the back label before using it again. If the model number is GTF7530 and the identifying codes match the recall notice, the official guidance is to stop using it until the repair kit is installed.
Air fryer ovens have become weeknight staples because they can toast, roast, and crisp food fast in a small space. That convenience is exactly why a recall like this can affect daily cooking habits, especially ahead of heavy holiday kitchen use.
