Does this product make a lot of noise while trimming?I just got mine and it makes noise like a milkshake blender. It's a pretty loud for a trimmer I've seen and used so far.

Yeah i would say it's a tad loud. Especially if you use the vacuume. That being said, it's literally never crossed my mind before now.

It is very quiet in my subjective opinion. Same as any other beard trimmer I've ever used. Nothing close to a blender.

I think mine makes less noise than the one it replaced, but it is certainly not silent. It's all relative, I guess.

It is VERY quiet. Obviously the cutting action creates some noise. However, I have been attaching a shop vac to the unit. You will want to do the same in order to limit the sawdust. The vacuum makes the process loud. I hope you don't plan to watch TV or try to carry on a conversation instead of concentrating on your work! The machine is so quiet you can easily forget where the blade is and take off a few fingertips.

John,How do get the trim line to come out of your trimmer's head? Mine requires me to pull the trigger 20 times each time I want to advance it or I have to do it manually.

Its not that loud. It's sort of the same buzz that an electric shaver. Hope this helps! =)

While it is not whisper quiet, it is powerful due to the motor which does make noise. I would recommend going to youtube and looking this product up as their are product videos on there so that will at least give you a better idea of how noisy it is.Thank you !Magic Mikes Premium Pleasure

When it is running it sounds like a blender at low speed....even when shredding cardboard or something thicker. The motor noise is a constant low hum no matter how many documents are being shredded at once. In other words the motor does not sound like it is working harder when shredding thicker things. There is a metal ringing/clicking sound sometimes when shredding thicker things...this is the finger guards touching together...I think....hope this helps...so far I am very happy with this shredder.

It makes the normal blender sounds. It would depend on what you are blending. Adding crunch veggies would make it sound louder.Really you are only blending for no more than a minute right? It is portable I suggest when using it in an open work environment take it to the break room to blend if you think people will complain.

Thanks Jennifer. I mainly use it for making smoothies, but I tried blending just water and it made that noise. I emailed Breville customer support, and they're going to ship me a new blender pending "inspection" of the old one. I don't know what they could hope to find during the inspection - I just purchased it a month ago!

Yes it is pretty loud. not as loud as crushing ice in a blender but far from quiet. To work properly you need about a tray of ice. It's a pretty situational appliance but it does come in very handy when unexpected guests stop by and you have no chilled ice. how well it works 8/10, how practical it is 5/10. very cool item over though.

Pretty loud...just like my old one. I got it mainly for the 'not so hot' HIGH heat. It's good in this area. I just turned it on so I could give you a good answer...it's loud. I'm still looking for one that is less forceful and less loud. The low heat is not loud at all and does a good job. With my thin hair I don't have to use the high heat very long before turning it to low heat. I do like this unit better than my old one...the regular high voltage one. Hope this helps.

This machine started off quiet, but soon after started squeaking at the handles. I live in a house so no neighbors to bother but I still use a mat under it. The main noise for me are the handles that squeak at random. Not a really big deal for me. I still love it. Good luck!!

Send it back. You shouldn't hear any parts rattling. It's not a heavy duty blender. Mine started smoking after about a minute of use blending smoothies.

This is my first clipper so I thought they were all this loud. It doesn't bother me a bit as I just use it at home. Mine arrived without any scratches. Maybe exchange yours?

Actually, the trimmer making a grinding noise is a GOOD thing, as it is the sound of the blade being sharpened as it cuts. Remember, this is a self-sharpening blade, which means that you do not have to keep replacing the blades as they become dull from prolonged use.

Hi Bonnie The motor should not have a loose sound. I would send back for a replacement. The blender is awesome I think you'll love it.

Not quiet at all.. especially with a fresh battery, sounds like a tiny mottor in over speed, kinda like an amplified bee.. not the kind of noise that would wake the neighbors up, but for the one that's actually getting the hair cut, it's pretty loud..

All blenders are loud, so is the Blendtec. This one does the job in half the time though.
