The 3 a.m. Phone Call That Put Us on National Television
On August 21ˢᵗ, somewhere around 3 a.m. on the U.S. East Coast — mid-afternoon in Beijing — our international team got an unplanned invite to join a live segment on LiveNOW from FOX, broadcasting straight from our Beijing headquarters.
It wasn't scripted, and it wasn't a formal review — just the kind of thing that happens when a company answers the phone at 3 a.m. and says yes. Our team walked host Jay Russell through the office, starting at the front desk where our logo greets everyone who walks in, before heading up to the 22nd floor for a view over Beijing's central business district. It's not the Beijing most people picture from back home — fewer landmarks, more glass towers, closer to the skyline of Chicago or New York than anything postcard-shaped. Somewhere in that walkthrough, the conversation landed on the question we get asked most: how does the vent actually work?
The Question Parents Keep Asking
It's a fair place for the conversation to land, because it matters a lot more than the view — it's the actual reason parents pick this bottle in the first place. Here's the short version of what our team explained on air: many traditional bottles let air mix in with milk as a baby feeds, and swallowed air is one of the things that can contribute to gas and fussiness. Our bottom-vent system is built to keep air separate from milk at the bottom of the bottle, paired with a silicone nipple shaped to feel closer to natural nursing.
It's also the story parents tell us most often — a baby who wouldn't settle with other bottles, finally comfortable with this one. That's anecdotal, not a clinical claim, but it's a pattern our team hears often enough to believe in what we've built.
Want the Fuller Breakdown?
None of that fits into a two-minute live hit, which is exactly why we're writing it down here instead.
If you're curious about the design that came up on air, our full anti-colic bottle guide breaks it down in plain language, or go straight to the nipple itself. Either way, it's the same reason we answered the phone at 3 a.m. in the first place — the people asking this question deserve a real answer, not just two minutes of airtime.
We answered the phone at 3 a.m. because the question parents keep asking deserves a real answer — whether that's on live national television or right here in plain language.
