An electric iron comprising a housing (1), a sole plate (2), a first reservoir (6) having an outlet (12) for a first fluid (7), an exchangeable reservoir (8) having an outlet (11) for a second fluid (9), which has a viscosity, and having coupling means (14), a nozzle means (10) comprising at least one aperture, a pump (19) for delivering a mixture of the first and second fluids to the nozzle means (10), said coupling means (14) comprising a first and a second inlet (15,16) and an outlet (17), said second inlet (16) of the coupling means being fixedly connected to the outlet (11) of the exchangeable reservoir (8), the first inlet (15) of the coupling means (14) and the outlet (17) of the coupling means (14) being connected to the outlet (12) of the first reservoir (6) and to a supply tube (18) to the pump (19), respectively, if the exchangeable reservoir (8) is inserted into the iron, at least one of the inlets (15,16) of the coupling means (14) and/or the outlet (11) of the exchangeable reservoir (8) being provided with a flow restriction (20,21) which is adapted to the viscosity of the second fluid (9) such that, given predetermined pumping characteristics of the pump (19), a predetermined desired flowrate of the mixture of fluids and/or a predetermined desired proportion of the first and second fluids (7,9) is obtained.
