Has anyone experienced their MIMI malfunctioning? Mine just started to act weird and won't turn on now. I really loved mine. Has anyone else has this happen?

Oh no! Mine works great still. You should contact customer service or maybe JeJoue.

Thanks for the advice! I am just bummed because I loved it and want a new one now. But, I am also bummed because I realized it was one of the last toys I bought from babeland and their customer service is slow. I am trying to be patient so I don't justgo and replace it myself. This was my new go- to vibe, I want it back

I've had good luck with Babeland customer service. I've had to send back 2 different vibes for different reasons (one random $20 vibe stopped working immediately after I turned it on and the other was an Elastomer Rabbit Habit where the elastomer wasn't properly attached to the body of the vibrator). They were understanding and had an acceptable turn around time both times.

If the Babeland warranty has expired, you should definitely contact JeJoue.

Thankfully I make it just under the wire for the 30 day return policy. So I am going to be patient, which is hard for me and call them tomorrow to work on getting a replacement. I wish it were a toy I didn't like so much then I would be a bit less impatient. But, I am going to try and get a replacement through Babeland. I am glad to hear that they are good with returns. I have only dealt with the customer services on other issues that took a bit of time to resolve. Thanks for all the advice guys! It is much appreciated

Yeah, it's a bummer when a favorite toy stops working.

I just mailed my 2nd Elastomer Rabbit Habit to Vibratex because the motor in the shaft broke. I'm a rabbit killer

Did you charge it? I read a review that said there's was malfunctioning a little before/when the battery was low.

Yea I charged it. But it still was screwed up and when I used it before it malfunctioned it was charged. So I am resigned to the fact that I must have a meeting of the minds with babeland customer service tomorrow.

Uh oh. I better try mine quick. When I got my order I was sick with the flu. I'm not 100%, but I'm well enough to see if it works.
I had to return something before that was damaged and Eden made it easy. You shouldn't have any problem returning it for a new MiMi.

One good thing came out of this. I realized I like Eden Fantasys much better than Babeland and will probably not buy anything else from them. And their shipping just takes too long anyway. So one last interaction and I am done

I am sure yours is fine. Most people aside from myself have not really had problems, but I always try to check mine before I get rid of the box or receipt. Even after this hiccup in the road, I am still a huge advocate of the MIMI! So I hope you like yours What color did you go for? And I hope your flu continues to get better

Yeah I know mine went a little wonky when it was just about dead (like it turned itself on scaring the ever loving crap out of my cat) but other wise she is good. I would do the exchange for sure.

How is your replacement working? Was your experience anything like what just happened with my Mimi?

On only day 4, my Mimi freaked out and died!

Mimi spontaneously skipped through 5 levels while in use and then wouldn't turn off. I tricked it into turning off by plugging it into the charger, even though it was still going strong and plenty charged. Now, Mimi stays lit on or off the charger but doesn't turn on. Dead Mimi = :-(

Obviously, I'm well within Eden Fantasys' 30 day return policy, and will need to send it back. However, I am certainly disappointed and can't help being a little concerned about Mimi randomly starting to vibrate in transit during my return.

I waited patiently for months and read plenty of reviews, so I knew there were weird electrical faults being reported by others, but I'd hoped it was a small minority of defective products compared with all the rave reviews. I wonder how many more are misbehaving. Anyone else experience what I've described?

Hmm, this is so discouraging. I hate when you narrow down a massive search only to find a malfunction is quite common.
