SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20260901-E88DC-2147310716. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Product: Gourmia GTF1150 (Gourmia Digital 4-Slice Toaster Oven Air Fryer, model GTF1150, date code 0126(13). Stainless steel/gray countertop digital air fryer toaster oven with a glass front door and digital control panel. The appliance is rated 120V, 60Hz, 1000W and has multiple cooking functions, including air fry, toast, bake, broil, and reheat. It is designed for household countertop cooking and can accommodate approximately four slices of toast. The unit was purchased new from Target on August 19, 2026. Target TCIN: 89110864). Incident: I purchased a Gourmia Digital 4-Slice Toaster Oven Air Fryer on August 19, 2026. From the first uses, the appliance produced a strong burnt-metal smell. I initially believed this was normal for a new appliance and that the odor would go away after it had been heated and used several times. On September 1, 2026, I was using the appliance to cook food when I noticed the burnt-metal smell again. I then observed what appeared to be melted or extremely hot material/metal dripping from the interior heating area toward the bottom of the appliance. Shortly afterward, an open flame/fire developed inside the bottom of the oven. I immediately stopped using the appliance. The appliance had been used multiple times previously and had not been modified or damaged. There were no injuries, but I am concerned about the fire hazard and the possibility of the fire spreading outside of the appliance.
