An image forming apparatus includes a pair of side covers, a finger receiving portion, a connection member, and a fitting member. One of the pair of side covers defines one of right and left outer side-surfaces of the image forming apparatus and the other defines the other of the right and left outer side-surfaces of the image forming apparatus. The finger receiving portion is inwardly recessed in each of the side covers with respect to a right-left direction and comprises an upper wall that has an insertion opening penetrating through the upper wall with respect to an top-bottom direction. The connection member is configured to connect the side covers with each other. The fitting member is a separate part from the connection member and is fitted to each of the finger receiving portions from an inner side of each of the side covers. The fitting member comprises a protrusion that protrudes downward therefrom. The protrusion protrudes downward from the upper wall of the finger receiving portion via the insertion opening.
