Steam wrinkle-removing appliance comprising a water tank ( 110 ) in direct communication with a steam-producing boiling chamber ( 60 ), said boiling chamber ( 60 ) comprising a heating unit ( 4 ) and a steam outlet ( 62 ) through which the steam can freely flow toward a wrinkle-removing steam brush, characterized in that the boiling chamber ( 60 ) is supplied with water from the tank ( 110 ) by means of several supply lines ( 70 ) with a small flow cross-section of less than 15 mm 2 , said supply lines extending lengthwise between an end ( 70 B) opening into the tank ( 110 ) and an end ( 70 A) opening into the boiling chamber ( 60 ) so as to generate head losses that limit the backflow of hot water or steam toward the tank ( 110 ).
