Original Abstract Submitted

A clothes treating apparatus including a cabinet having a laundry inlet; a door configured to open and close the laundry inlet; a drum inside the cabinet to accommodate clothes received in the drum through the laundry inlet while the laundry inlet is opened by the door; a sensing device including a sensor to measure a temperature or a humidity in the drum; and a holder on the door or the drum. The sensing device is separably mountable to the holder so that, when the sensing device is mounted to the holder, the sensing device is held by the holder and, when the sensing device is separated from the holder, the sensing device is allowed to move with respect to the drum, within the drum, so as to measure the temperature or the humidity in the drum while clothes accommodated in the drum are being treated.
