Abstract
A device for conditioning fabrics in a laundry dryer comprises a fabric conditioning agent in powder form in a container having a plurality of apertures through which the powdered fabric conditioning agent can pass, the container being provided with at least one outwardly projecting region which is effective to prevent or reduce direct contact between the said apertures and the fabrics, the projecting region also enabling the device to be stacked together with a second identical device in such a manner that the second device will close the said apertures. The device may be of general frustoconical configuration, resembling a disposable drinking cup with a perforated false bottom. To prevent misuse of the device as a cup, the upper part of the side wall may advantageously be apertured.
