Frenchie Double Entendre Review
My Verdict
The Frenchie Double Entendre is such a great vibrator. There are certain things that I'd like to change (make it quieter, have two-button controls) but the pros really do outweigh the cons. It's amazing quality and so versatile. Although it's primarily for clitoral and g-spot stimulation, you'll find that it's suitable for any gender. It's priced well and I don't think that there are many vibrators that offer so much for the money. Whether you're a beginner and finding out what you enjoy, or more experienced and want something a bit different, then the Double Entendre will fit the bill.

Personal Experience
I was so excited to receive Frenchie’s Double Entendre. The packaging is lovely, and it made unboxing it really special. This vibrator is made of gorgeously smooth silicone, the curves of the Double Entendre are wonderful and I was surprised at how bendable this toy was. I’m not partnered so this is all about solo play with it.
First Things First
I was apprehensive about charging it to start with as it took a bit of force to push the charging pin into place. After that, it’s been fine. As it was new, bending the vibrator was accompanied by crunching noises which were a little disconcerting. They’ve worn off now and it bends easily and silently. As it has only one button to control it, it’s not difficult to work out how to change the settings. I prefer the continuous vibrations – I can’t get into the patterns at all. The first vibration setting is enough for me when I want to take my time. The subsequent ones are stronger, deeper and more intense, they get me there much faster and harder. I would prefer a 2nd button to move up and down the settings, however, it’s not that much of a hassle.Versatility
I’m not experienced with vibrators, so it’s been a bit of a learning curve to discover what the Double Entendre can do – which is a lot! I enjoy different sensations and longer explorations, as well as quickies, and this is where I struggled with the Double Entendre. It’s louder than I’d like it to be and I’m aware of the volume and that distracts me. My compromise has been to not use it solely as a vibrator (or in the quiet of the night!). With some water-based lube it feels wonderful stroking it over my vulva and around my clit. I can bend it to apply pressure to my g-spot and use it for thrusting. The smaller head has a ridge further down it and the back has rounded edges. These are absolutely perfect for more precise stimulation around my clitoris – heavenly! The larger head is ideal for some hands-free grinding – with or without vibrations. The vibrations are quieter when used internally and pressed firmly against my body. I found that the Double Entendre was really easy to hold at any angle and it holds its shape reasonably well. The more I explore and play with it, the more I enjoy it.Design
The Double Entendre by Frenchie is a sleek, beautifully curved, silicone, double-ended vibrator. It comes in blue or melon and the silicone is a dream — velvety smooth. One of its best features is that it is bendable, so you can use adjust it to fit your body with ease. Although it's aimed at clitoral and g-spot stimulation the design of it easily allows it to be enjoyable for any gender. It’s easy to hold and simple to use and looks lovely.
Ease of Use
Frenchie’s Double Entendre is very easy to use. It has a single control button with an LED indicator on the larger head. You press the button for the count of 5, release, and then press to cycle through the different modes. To switch off, press and hold the button again. Although it is easy, it can be frustrating to have to cycle through all of the presets in order to find your favourite. To charge it, you need to push in the charging pin with quite some force, this becomes easier with time. The charger does stay in very well! As it's bendable you can use the Double Entendre hands-free, plus it's easy to bend it into a shape that's easy for you to use - perfect for anyone with mobility or grip problems.
Quality
The Double Entendre looks and feels like a high-quality product. The silicone is velvety smooth and its curves are wonderful. It feels solid, but light and it's great to hold. When I first started to bend the vibrator there were some slightly disturbing crunching noises. They have stopped now and it bends very smoothly. It doesn't always stay in its desired shape, but that's easy to rectify. It is a loud vibrator; I wish it was quieter as our walls aren’t very thick.
Price
The Double Entendre comes in at a great, mid-range price. Frenchie hasn’t scrimped on the materials or packaging for their product and gives you a lot for your money: body-safe soft silicone, 2 motors, rechargeability, and a variety of speeds and patterns. Its versatility comes from how bendable and gender-neutral it is. You also get some great extras such as a fabulous storage box and bag. It looks and feels like a high-quality product and is ideal for a gift.
Performance
I’m really not used to vibrators and I loved how easy it was to use and experiment with this one. It is so versatile. The design makes it easy to hold in a variety of positions, even hands-free. The vibrations are more buzzy than rumbly, but they were strong enough for me on the lowest setting. For g-spot stimulation I need more pressure, rather than vibrations so although this feels good, it doesn’t hit the spot internally for me. It is loud, even on the lower settings and that did affect my experience of it. The battery life is 2 hours and the charging time is also 2 hours which I think is great.
Packaging
Oh my! The packaging is so lovely. The box is strong and it’s shrink-wrap sealed. The design and colors of the packaging are vibrant. There is a tab on one side of the box which you pull to access the drawer where the vibrator can sit – either in or on top of its storage bag. Everything fits in the box easily and it all fits perfectly in the drawer of my bedside table. I do really like the packaging, it looks great and isn’t excessive.
Materials and care
The Double Entendre is made from medical-grade silicone, meaning it’s body-safe and non-porous. There are no seams on it either and it feels soft. The power button and logo can be felt with your thumb, but you’re not going to feel them on your body. It’s waterproof up to 1 meter deep and it's light to hold. As it’s silicone it’s really easy to clean with some gentle soap, then dried and it’s good to store ready for next time. It does come with a storage bag and the box is also suitable for storage too.
Special feature
Frenchie’s Double Entendre is a dual motor vibrator that’s designed to suit as many body types as possible. It does this by being very flexible. You can bend it just about in half, enabling you to enjoy g-spot and clitoral vibrations. You also don’t have to use it internally, it can easily bend to hug your body perfectly. It keeps its shape quite well and can even be used hands-free. The toy isn’t just for those with a vulva. If your partner has a penis it is incredibly easy to bend it around the penis at the base or to stroke over the scrotum.
