Abstract
Disclosed herein is a microwave oven with a magnetic field detecting device. The microwave oven includes a magnetron for generating microwaves and a wave guide for guiding the microwaves to a cooking chamber. A detection opening is formed in one side of the wave guide to allow a magnetic field generated by standing waves formed in the wave guide to be discharged from the wave guide. The magnetic field detecting device is formed on a board mounted on the wave guide to detect the magnetic field discharged through the detection opening.
