At noon tomorrow, I'm getting the Gourmia 8 QT air fryer that Walmart will have on sale for $35 for Black Friday. Is it great? I don't know. Gourmia air fryers generally get good ratings (4+ stars) at most sites. (Not this one as it's a special for Black Friday and is unrated so far.) It has every feature I want in an air fryer though. It has a viewing window with a light so you can see your food cooking. A preheat, and flip/shake notice. You can bake in it, air fry, roast, broil, reheat, dehydrate, keep warm, and it even has a proof setting for yeast doughs to rise in.
Will it be the best air fryer ever made? Not at that price. But hot air is hot air. As long as it heats to the right general temperature and moves the air, it should be as good as any other. I'll still have my older air fryer in reserve also should this one prove to be junk. I'll check the baking temp with my oven thermometer to see how close it is to the set temperature but it should be fine for me and the price is unbeatable. I've been wanting one with baking capabilities and a window, so this came along at the perfect time. I've got Walmart+ so I can order it at noon tomorrow. And for $35, it's too good of a deal to pass up on.
