Abstract
A microwave oven adapted for under-counter use that eliminates many of the disadvantages of prior microwave ovens. A bottom member and transparent canopy shaped top member or cover from a microwave conductive cavity viewable from three or more sides. The bottom and top members may be hinged or slidably connected to provide maximum cavity access for food insertion. By mounting the oven on slides in a kitchen cabinet, drawer, or appliance enclosure, the oven is kept out of sight and out of the way when not in use but quickly available when needed. Lighting, venting, and viewing of the cavity and its contents is simpler, safer, easy and efficient.
