A retractable power cord assembly, which may be incorporated into the rear cover of a steam iron, has two cord-receiving cavity sections. To increase the capacity of the assembly, the first section is so narrow that turns of the power cord wound into the first section are confined to be wrapped one on top of the other whereas the second section is sufficiently wide that the turns accumulate more randomly within the second section. A hand crank is pivotally mounted on the assembly housing.

To prevent water particles or mist carried by steam exiting from the steam vents of a steam iron, the steam generated in its steam chamber follows tortuous paths from both a vaporization section and a blast path to the steam vents. A baffle having a concave front face spans across the rear of the vaporization section and the open rear ends of the blast path face the concave baffle face. The lid of the steam chamber is sealed by pressure to the baffle and to a pair of ribs that define the sides of the blast path. The outer rib is higher than the inner rib so that, if the seal between the lid fails, the failure will likely occur between the inner rib and the lid so that any water escaping from the blast path will likely enter the vaporization chamber and not exit through a steam vent.
