When people ask me what the Willow feels like, I tell them to imagine a tiny printer suctioned to their breast with an ink cartridge going round and round and round. It's a terrible analogy (who the hell knows what a printer feels like, let alone a printer suctioned to their breast?), but it's the best I can come up with. Generation 3 is different. While it's still mechanical feeling, it's not like a printer. In fact, I thought long and hard to come up with a better analogy, and here it is: It feels like a baby. Maybe it's a robot baby, but it's still a baby — and that's a pretty dramatic change.
"You have more comfort with this generation because the pump has a slower, softer pumping rhythm," explains Morris. "The longer, slower pull more closely mimics the way the baby holds the nipple in the mouth," she says. "The baby does not let go of the nipple, but does long pulls of the nipple. With the different levels of expression, we're giving you more customizable options and more control so you can mimic your baby's session."
