Claim:
1. A packaged product comprising a container wherein the container comprises an opening and an internal compartment, and at least two flexible water-soluble unit dose articles held within the internal compartment of the container, wherein the unit dose articles are positioned side-by-side to form a single row of unit dose articles within the container, wherein the unit dose article comprises at least a first film and second film wherein the first film and second film are sealed together forming a seal area wherein said seal area runs around the periphery of the pouch defining a first two dimensional cross-sectional plane; and wherein the pouch comprises a first smallest cross-sectional axis and a first largest cross sectional axis wherein the first smallest and first largest cross-sectional axis cross one another through a geometrical centre point of the first two dimensional cross-sectional plane; and wherein the internal compartment of the container comprises a second two-dimensional cross-sectional plane parallel to the first two-dimensional cross-sectional plane; and wherein the internal compartment comprises a second smallest cross-sectional axis and a second largest cross sectional axis wherein the second smallest and second largest cross-sectional axis cross one another through a geometrical centre point of the second two dimensional cross-sectional plane; and wherein the ratio of the first largest cross-sectional dimension to the second largest cross-sectional dimension is from about 1.2:1 to about 1:1.8 and the first smallest cross-sectional dimension to the second smallest cross-sectional dimension of the internal compartment is from about 1.2:1 to about 1:1.8.
