Abstract
A microwave oven including an extendable/retractable hood assembly is provided. The microwave oven draws contaminated air through intake ports that are provided in a hood casing and a hood. The hood is slidably received in the hood casing. Thus, the hood is retracted or extended from the hood casing to more efficiently perform an air exhaust function.
