A rack assembly for a cooking appliance includes a rack operable between a stowed position and a deployed position. At least one telescoping actuator is operable between a retracted position and an extended position. At least one connector has a first end coupled to a distal end of the telescoping actuator and a second end coupled to the rack. The rack is adjusted from the stowed position to the deployed position as the telescoping actuator adjusts from the retracted position to the extended position.
