Abstract

See full text

A container according to a particular embodiment of the invention has a substantially rectangular vertical cross section and a substantially rectangular front face, and the container comprises a dispensing outlet adjacent a corner of the container's substantially rectangular front face. In various embodiments, the container's shape and outlet position allow users to dispense liquid from the container when the container is in: (1) a first, 'short and wide' orientation, in which the front face of the container is wider than it is tall; and (2) a second, 'tall and thin' orientation in which the front face of the container is taller than it is wide. The container may include an elongate handle that extends outwardly from the container's front face. In one embodiment, the handle extends substantially diagonally with respect to a side edge of the container's front face, and is adapted to facilitate the rotation of the container between the first and second orientations.
