Erocentric Reviews The Fun Factory LADY BI Vibrator
Written by Erocentric
The Fun Factory Lady Bi is a dual stimulation vibrator most commonly known as a “rabbit.” If you’ve somehow been living under a rock since the Great Rabbit Obsession of 1998 (sparked by a problematic “sex toy addiction” episode of Sex and the City), a rabbit is an internal vibrator that has an additional arm for external clitoral pleasure.
Sounds great, right?
There’s just one little problem… Everyone’s genitals are different!
Many individuals have purchased rabbit vibes only to get home, cozy up in a nest of blankets, and sadly realize that the clitoral arm does NOT match their anatomy. Maybe it’s too short and only vaguely brushes against their clit, like a socially awkward stranger who sneaks past in a crowded room. Or maybe it’s too long and rests atop their mons pubis like a vibrating beached whale. Maybe the shape and position is just awkward enough that it jabs and pokes the clit like an emergency (failed) orgasm button.
My point is: Rabbits are tricky — and this is no exception.
The Lady Bi reminds me of a flower, mostly because of the petal-like appearance of its clitoral arm and a few gentle ridges along the slightly curved shaft. Overall, the toy is of fairly average size, but the proportions can be a little surprising. For example, the total length is approximately 8.75″ but only 4.75″ of that is insertable due to the large handle and the position of the clitoral arm. The diameter also increases quite suddenly, starting at less than 1″ and maxing out at approximately 1.75″ before it briefly dips back down again.
The clitoral arm is 1.75″ long and it branches out from the shaft at approximately a 50° angle. However, it’s important to note that the arm is made to be flexible and will extend to at least a 70° angle with minimal force or pressure. (I was a little nervous to push it any further.) This should allow for more comfort when used with a variety of unique bodies.
As per Fun Factory standards, the Lady Bi is both body-safe & nonporous. It is made from hard ABS plastic covered with a layer of matte silicone. The silicone itself is fairly tough, giving the toy very minimal squish but maintaining a surprising amount of flexibility. It’s available in 3 colors: violet (pictured here), ultramarine blue, and india red. Although I love how velvety smooth the silicone finish is, I have noticed that it creates a fair amount of drag during insertion (add more lube!) and it likes to attract a lot of dust, hair, & lint in storage.
The glossy white plastic handle is one of Fun Factory‘s signature styles. It has a hollow chrome-plated center, giving you more options on how to comfortably hold the toy during use. It also has 3 buttons for controlling the vibrations of both motors. The bottom button is the famous red FUN button, which simply turns the toy on & off. The middle button controls the motor in the shaft and the top button controls the motor in the arm.
Each of these 2 buttons cycle through 6 vibration modes, starting with 3 steady intensities before switching to various rhythms/pulsation patterns. The manual also describes ways to travel lock the toy. (Lock = holding down the FUN button + the shaft button. Unlock = holding down the FUN button + the arm button.) You can even “save” your favorite vibration combination by holding down the FUN button for 3 seconds. This way, the Lady Bi will remember that specific setting the next time you turn it on — rather than starting from scratch on the factory settings. (You can later remove this saved setting by holding the FUN button for 6 seconds.)
The Lady Bi is completely waterproof and rechargeable via a magnetic USB cable. (Fun Factory does not include an AC charging adapter, but you can add one to your order at SheVibe for an additional $7.) According to the user manual, this vibrator does take a painfully long 8 hours to complete a full charge — and that only gave me approximately 35 minutes, running both motors on high. This seems so abysmal that I’m wondering if mine is actually faulty.
Because I received this product as a special review item from SheVibe, I do not have the official packaging to photograph. However, I can honestly say that I have never been disappointed with the quality of Fun Factory’s package designs. (Check out my reviews for both the Bootie & the Bouncer if that sort of thing is important to you.)
Although my review will focus on using this toy vaginally, I do want to point out that this vibrator is also anal safe. The arm will essentially act as a “base” & prevent the toy from accidentally being pulled into the booty during use. So despite the gendered name & much of the marketing heavily implying that it is solely a vaginal/clitoral vibrator, definitely don’t write the Lady Bi off if your anatomy doesn’t match. It can totally be used to stimulate the anus & the perineum instead!
