The present invention provides a compact, efficient means for containing, preparing and dispensing moist, hot towels especially for airline passengers. The container of the invention includes a bottom (14) formed at least partially of heat insulating material that is adapted to contain a stack (18) of, for example, disposable towels and that has self-supporting sidewalls. A top cover (12) is included that is similarly shaped, but of a slightly smaller dimension so that it will fit inside the cavity of the bottom. In use, the disposable towels are placed within the bottom cavity, and preferably using the cavity of the top, the desired amount of hot water is added to the towels. In cases where the bottom is less than full of towels, the top may be inverted and used to express excess water by pressing against the towels with the bottom tipped so as to drain the excess water. The hot, moist towels may then be dispensed one at a time. After use, the towels may be collected in the container, the top replaced and the entire contents discarded. |
