The present invention relates to a microwave oven. Though the present invention provides a system in a front surface thereof for air communication between inside and outside of the microwave oven, the number of components for the front surface is minimized. That is, vent grill parts 46 and 56 are formed as one unit with the door 40 and the control panel 50 of the microwave oven for covering vent holes 36 and 36' in the front surface 34 of a main frame 30 from external view. Top ends of the vent grill parts 46 and 56 are opened for permitting inside and outside of the microwave oven to be in communication through the vent holes 36 and 36'. There may be a louver 48 in the vent grill parts 46 and 56 in correspondence to the vent holes 36 and 36'.
