A microwave oven is conveniently used even when a vibration and/or shock are applied to a vessel containing food by preventing the vessel from falling down. The microwave oven includes a cabinet having a cooking chamber and a driving chamber, a high frequency generating section for generating high frequency waves and supplying the high frequency waves to the cooking chamber, and a vessel supporting section for supporting a vessel containing food in the cooking chamber so as to prevent the vessel from falling due to a vibration and/or shock. The vessel supporting section includes a supporting member selectively installed to be contacted with a certain inner wall of the cooking chamber, and at least a supporting ring installed at a side of the supporting member for receiving and supporting the vessel. Here, the supporting ring is separated into two members, while the two members are elastically biased in a direction wherein the leading ends of the two members face each other and are pivotally installed at the inner wall of the cooking chamber by a hinge pin.
