Claim 10:
11. A method of dispensing laundry products in a laundry treating appliance comprising a centrifugal dispenser having a first container defining a first reservoir, a first centrifugal chamber centrifugally downstream of the first reservoir, a second centrifugal chamber fluidly coupled to the first centrifugal chamber and centrifugally downstream of the first centrifugal chamber, a second container defining a second reservoir located at least partially below and in fluid communication with the second centrifugal chamber, an orifice fluidly coupling the first and second centrifugal chambers, and a valve located within the orifice, the method comprising:
retaining by gravity the laundry treating products in the first reservoir;
moving the laundry treating products by centrifugal force from the first reservoir to the first centrifugal chamber;
moving the products from the first centrifugal chamber to the second centrifugal chamber by centrifugal force acting on the products to open the valve and permit the products to pass through; and
allowing the products to move from the second centrifugal chamber to the second reservoir with gravity.
