[0229] The guide portion 146 includes a first guide plate 148 and a second guide plate 150, and the first guide plate 148 and the second guide plate 150 are connected. The first guide plate 148 and the second guide plate 150 extend in opposite directions, the first guide plate 148 extends toward one side of the cooking cavity 114, and the second guide plate 150 extends toward the other side of the cooking cavity 114. The airflow in the second area 136 flows to the third area under the action of the first guide plate 148, and the airflow in the second area 136 flows to the fourth area under the action of the second guide plate 150. That is, the first guide plate 148 and the second guide plate 150 divide the airflow in the second area 136 so that a part of the airflow flows to the third area, and the other part of the airflow flows to the fourth area.
