Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to an appliance (100) comprising a housing (110) and a container (120) that can be decoupled from the housing (110). The appliance (100) also comprises a capacitive filling level sensor (113) arranged on the housing (110), which is designed to determine a capacity value that depends on a filling level of matter (121) in the container (120). The appliance (100) further comprises a distance sensor (112, 122) which is designed to determine a distance value that depends on a distance between the filling level sensor (113) and the container (120). Furthermore, the appliance (100) comprises a processing unit (111) which is designed to determine a value for the filling level on the basis of the capacity value and on the basis of the distance value.
