A textile processing device (10) of household equipment includes a reception room (12) for textiles (14) and a recording device (18) to detect the presence of a textile item in the reception room. The recording device shall comprise a light-emitting unit (26) to emit a beam of light (32) towards a reference surface (36) of the textile processing device through a part of the reception area, the beam of light having a bundle axis (34) and the reference surface having a surface standard at one point,where the bundle axis passes through the reference surface. Furthermore, the recording device has a first light detector (28) and a second light detector (30) for measuring the intensity of light at a first or second light detector. second detection location. The first detection point shall be located in the path of light rays emitted by directed reflection of at least part of the beam of light at the reference surface. The second detection site has a different angle distance from the surface standard than the first detection site. An evaluation unit (42) determines the presence of a piece of textile in the recording room, depending on a first measurement value and a second measurement value,where the first measurement value is representative of a light intensity recorded by the first light detector and the second measurement value is representative of a light intensity recorded by the second light detector.
