A method of coordinating engagement with a laundry appliance may include receiving one or more table conditions from an owner account for a notification table. The method may also include receiving a communication request from a remote user device of a guest user and recording a guest account to the notification table based on the received communication request. The method may still further include receiving a status signal from the laundry appliance and transmitting a notice signal to the guest account based on the status signal and the one or more table conditions.

An appliance having a user interface with a first controller module, and at least one leak detector. The at least one leak detector having a housing with a second controller module communicatively coupled to the first controller module, and a power source communicatively coupled to the second controller module. The at least one leak detector further having at least one sensor communicatively coupled to the second controller module. The second controller module being configured to receive a status from at least one of either the power source or the at least one sensor.

An automatic laundry treating appliance having at least one sensor configured to detect the height of laundry in a treating chamber of the automatic laundry treating appliance is disclosed. Based upon the output of the sensors, a human-perceptible signal is generated to indicate whether the laundry load is below, within or above an optimal range for the laundry load. Further, the automatic laundry treating appliance may communicate to the user after completion of a drying function information related to whether the amount of laundry treated during the drying function exceeded an upper limit for an optimal amount of laundry based upon data acquired during the drying function.

A dryer including a main body which includes a user interface; a drum to accommodate a material to be dried; a motor configured to provide a rotation force to the drum; a heat pump device including a compressor, and configured to heat air to be supplied to the drum; an electrode sensor configured to output a pulse when contacting the drying material; a current sensor configured to output a sensed value corresponding to a magnitude of current flowing through the motor; and a controller configured to receive a drying course selected through the user interface, and output a control signal to control the motor and the compressor.
