The approximate size of the container to be 6.0″ in height and 2.5″ in diameter.

The double ended feature in this item is obtained through a built-in wall which separates one end from the other; Thereby, creating two (2) identical cylinders in one, which are separated by the said wall.

SPECIAL FEATURES AND OTHER INCIDENTAL USES (AMENDED)—BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION—PRIOR ART

The general public is currently able to purchase tissues and wipes in dispensers, made of both non-waterproof and waterproof material. These dispensers/containers are used for tissues or wipes, and have a single use. Many dispensers have been proposed, for example, US patent US D495, 175 S (2004) and U.S. Pat. No. 5,785,179 (1988); However, none offer the convenience of a double ended tissue/wipe dispenser as proposed herein.

SPECIAL FEATURES (AMENDED)—BACKGROUND OF INVENTION OBJECTS AND ADVANTAGES

Accordingly, besides the objects and advantages of the double-ended feature, in my above patent, several objects and advantages of the present invention are:

• (a) portability;
• (b) shape;
• (c) size;
• (d) waterproof;
• (e) easily manufactured with present technology;
• (f) easily marketed with the underlying market;
• (g) cost effectiveness in the manufacturing and marketing.

WHAT PROBLEM DOES THIS INVENTION SOLVE? (AMENDED): SUMMARY

In accordance with the present invention, the tissue/wipe double ended dispenser comprises a waterproof durable material that could be used as a refillable or non-refillable container small enough to be carried around or placed in the cup holder of motor vehicles. It may be exposed to water or damp surfaces.

This product is mainly designed with the driver in mind. Considering that often times a spill can cause a driver to distract when trying to find a tissue or wipe, the readily available location of the dispenser takes away the guessing and distractability for the driver.

The product being waterproof, it may be left in open vehicles such as convertibles, motorcycles. No need to worry that the tissues or wipes would get wet.
