It wasn't very loud... However mine broke after three months of use. I was very dissapointed. I may have dropped it off the counter once or twice. But I still thought it should have held up a little better.

It's a little noisy at first, I did clean it as instructed first thing (I used long pipe cleaners and my gun cleaner). As I used the rifle it did quiet down some. The sound reminds me of a cap gun at first, I've been using mine in the backyard and haven't had any complaints. I guess it depends on your neighbors.

I think it's a bit louder than a lawn mower but it's tough to say. Lawnmowers eventually get turned off. I had this thing running for three days so it can wear on your ears. When I first fired it up during hurricane Irene I opened my garage door a bit so that the exhaust would vent outside. It was mostly inside though. It is NOT waterproof so you have to figure something out - front porch, build and enclosure or something.

I have been using it for quiet awhile now, its pretty strong, NO WAY you can use it for the face. Hope this helps.

I can't hear it running in the house with the windows closed. I have no problem carrying on a conversation, without screaming, standing right next to it when it is running . It is quieter than my lawn mower, pressure washer and snow blower. It's quieter then I expected it to be.

Its pretty good, actually! Its not the MOST silent vacuum I've ever owned, but the power to noise ratio far surpasses previous vacuums. Usually with less noise comes a less powerful vacuum. And it has more of a low tone, so it's much less obnoxious. I definitely dont feel like Im disturbing my neighbors. Come to think of it, my roommate has told me, with his bedroom door closed, he can barely hear anything if Im vacuuming the living room.

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?

yes it is very noisy. a high pitched (loud) whine. and it blows air out of the back (into your face, depending on your position) while you are using it.

Yes, it is loud. I was warned by one the reviews before buying it, but bought it anyway. I am happy with the machine overall, but the noise has got the biggest downside.

Mine isn't noticeably louder than barber shop clippers; if it's very loud, it could be defective, especially if it's heating up a lot or vibrating really hard.

Very "quiet" for it's size. NOT as noisy or loud as a Briggs & Stratton push or riding lawn mower. It is governed at a constant speed (noise level & pitch). I cannot hear mine (8,000 watts) in the house. I can hear it if I stand in the enclosed porch (which it is just outside of). Standing right in front of the exhaust you can carry-on a "normal" coversation. I would compare the noise level to that of my step-father's honda riding mower (very quiet mower). We are extreamly happy with this unit. No complaint what-so-ever. Installation is a snap, very basic and easy (using the transfer switch reccomended). Very "quiet" for it's size.

What has noise got to do with performance? I didn't find it any noisier than any other unit the same size such at Kitchen Aid. I performs really well. Unfortunately, there are no attachments for it. It's a one of a kind and only available the Amazon. There's also no repair facilities should it break. But it is well made and works very well.

My last blender was a cheap Oster. I just turned on my Dash blender to listen specifically to the loudness of this blender. I think it is quieter than my last blender for sure. I still think blenders are loud in general. I hope this is helpful.

It is not a quiet generator - when running it we have it located outside of the garage. It is the normal sound of a generator. With that being said, we are extremely happy with it and have had to use it a few times already since we purchased it. It's easy to use and does the job!

it isn't very quiet when running. however, I plan on using it mainly for power outages, so the loudness won't be a problem. And it will be running a ways from the house. If you are concerned about loudness, such as for a campsite where it would be run daily, you might want to check the data on several before purchasing one. hope this helps you.
