Gourmia - GAF222 2-Quart Compact Air Fryer

Our air fryer is used several times a day and must have for us. We mostly use it instead of frying on the stove. We have owned both several Cosori and Gourmia and Gourmia wins in regard to quality and size. Our first Gourmia was 2yld in perfect working condition but Costco was having a sale $39 on the new version with a bigger basket so we grabbed it.

I bought a small Gourmia and I have only used my big oven once in the last 6 months.

I bought two of the original $40 basket ones 4 years ago. Both work and look like new.

I used to have the Cusinart one from Costco (older model with more knobs), and it was good at toasting and being an oven, but barely average at being an air fryer. Had to replace it once right at the 2 year warranty mark since the knobs went bad, and then again about 18 months after. I have the Gourmia basket one now, and it's solid as an air fryer, decent as an oven, but pretty hard to get toasting done right. What do you need as the the primary usage? If it's primarily air frying, keep going for the basket. If you need it for multi-purpose with toasting, etc. get a non-basket.

I like the Gourmia basket from Costco.

I have the Gourmia air fryer that is a basket (not window) and it's fantastic. I use it almost daily for a few years now.

Single basket gourmia from Costco. Cheap and spacious.

Like another poster in this thread, I just replaced my old Gourmia single-basket model not because of any failures but because the tray/basket eventually got too gunked up for me to reliably clean anymore 😅 it was fantastic for the price I paid for it! I upgraded to the dual-basket Gourmia since it dropped to $69 on clearance; only used it a few times so far but I'm pretty happy with it. It sounds like a goddamn jet engine the entire time it's running though so if loud noises bother you maybe just do the single-basket lmao.

Is this style better than the basket-style Gourmia air fryer? Thinking about upgrading the Gourmia that I bought a few years ago.

If you’re asking if you need to get another air fryer, the answer is likely yes. We have 2, the same single basket Gourmia you were referring to, and an oven style one as well. We use them for different things, but I’m definitely happy we have both.
