When it runs, how loud is it?

I also am complaining about the loudness of the motor. Since there are other complaints, is Ninja Corporation thinking of capping the noise somehow?

Its not bad. Much quieter than the Cuisinart that we bought this to replace. Electric motors are nearly noiseless. The noise comes from the gears that step down the speed of the motor. The big powerful blenders from Blendtech and Vitamix don't have to step down the speed as much. I'm guessing they are quieter. Even still, this isn't offensive..

Don't see answer to my question recapping loudness of machine. I am a customer. I just received my Ninja. It works fine but have to wear earplugs when operating it.

It's not very loud. I sleep with the ceiling fan on and this thing too, and sometimes I can't tell if it's on. The fan is basically what you would find in a computer tower so the noise is minimal. A slight humm if anything

It's pretty loud. Manufacture specs say 50dB, I'd say that just about right. It's about the same noise as one of the old box style fans.

You can hear it when it is on but it's not really noisy. I would call it fairly quiet.

I have this pump installed in a building that is insulated ..some times it runs 24 hours a day only run as I need it...I don't have a measure device to tell how loud it is when running. In order to hear it running you have to be with in appox 30 feet from out side of building to hear it running..It is very quite for this type of pump.

this is the only unit i have ever had so it is hard for me to say. it is not loud, but you can tell it is on. the higher the setting the louder it is, but it is not annoyingly loud. sorry i could not be more helpful!

Not loud. It is nothing that would distract someone excessively when it is running. I like the microwave, just miss the automatic cook options from my old one.

Yes, I find it fairly loud. On my machine, anyway, which is older and ready to be replaced because it leaks.

It's not quiet. I used a sound level meter to compare it to a couple other units and it's literally 10-20 times louder. The sound it makes is also particularly annoying.

It gets pretty loud enough to hear outside of a room. But its loud for how small it is.

It is very loud! I agree but I never tried to figure out the volume. Therefore, I don't know. Sorry!

We haven't used it since last summer so I don't remember but I don't remember it being super loud, it's just a little guy....It's supposed to be 60's here this week so I'll pull it out again and let ya know.

It's not very loud at all, I was surprised how quiet/relaxing the pump is while running at a high speed. I wouldn't recommend running anything at full speed, there is no need for that if you have cats.

It does make some noise when running but is much quieter than previous units I have owned. I would estimate between 40 and 60 decibels when operating

No louder than a "normal" fan regardless of load. You can hear it's running but not over the volume of a typical game. It is very good at keeping the processor cool.

We use it on our boat it's moderately loud when the motor is off, but our boat has a 250 on it and it gets hard to hear when it's running

Comfortably loud. I usually run it in another room and shut the door. Works real well!!
