To provide a storage part with a drying function capable of drying cloths or dishes by a simple structure without requiring special arrangement or power.

The storage part 1 is connected to a range hood 2 set in a kitchen. The storage part 1 is composed of a casing with an opening/closing part. The upper end of the storage part communicates with the range hood 2, and an exhaust outlet 4 for discharging air to the range hood 2 is provided in the upper end. An air intake 5 for taking air in is provided in the lower end of the storage part. When a fan 10 in the range hood is operated, air is taken in from the air intake 5 and discharged from the exhaust outlet 4 communicating with the range hood 2 to the range hood 2. As a result, air is circulated inside the storage part, and objects stored in the storage part are dried by the forced convection in the storage part with the drying function. The above problem can be solved by the storage part with the drying function.
