i need a quiet refrigerator because I have a very small space. Does it make ANY noise?

We have this in our bedroom. Yes, the fridge's compressor does make some noise, but not enough to bother us when we sleep.

Hi, Sorry about my delayed response. I ordered this fridge for a student lounge area, so I'm not sure if the noise it makes in there would be bothersome in an office setting. Dave

Hi Saven,It is not noisy at all. If you are going to use it as a freezer only, make sure to set the temperature on freezer.

This is a great little refrigerator. Your question made me stop and think. I don't remember ever noticing any noise from it at all. It certainly isn't loud. I think you'd be ok in a dorm room.

Noise is not noticeable to me. Ours is located near the kitchen and I can barely hear it. Shelves are narow as others have pointed out. That being said, I am very happy with this appliance.

If you ask me I would say that there isn't much compressor noise. However the ice maker and catch tray is quite load I bought mine in January but I'm still getting used to it..... Hope this helps!

Mine is a different sounding fridge, but not really louder, I believe it is mostly fan noise not compressor noise. But ... make sure that you have at least 2" of air gap in the back. It is such a big unit it is tempting to push it back as far as you can. The better air flow you have over the back the less sound you hear.

Just OK. It was louder than the Frigidaire unit I have replaced it with but I didn't consider it objectionable. It has 2 fan speeds and is predictably a bit quieter on the low speed setting, in the same range as a window air conditioner on a low fan speed setting. I couldn't hear any compressor noise so it was just rushing air white noise.

I have a unit which makes a noise like a normal fan would make. It does not make loud unexpected noise. There is a compressor unit in it like the one freeze and that has its own noise Apart from that I am not sure what kind of noise you are getting. Thanks

It isn't quiet, but it isn't as loud as my dishwasher. Maybe about the same as a fan above your stove (not one of those Whisper quiet fans).

My experience, and most others by their reviews, is that the Waste King 9930 is a relatively quiet appliance. Please examine its mounting as a source of your noise.

Not at all. You hear the ice fall into the bin, but not any motor noise. I installed it in a tv room and I'm not bothered by any noise.

I do not own one of these. I own the Wine Enthusiast wine refrigerator & it is very quiet

All there is is a little fan to cool it. I have a smaller one in the living room. Yes, when I'm in the kitchen with the 11 cu ft, I'm aware of the fan being on which assures me it is working. It isn't on often. The sound is not a bit bothersome like the last refrg/combo I had. (not Danby) It was the combo that made it so noisy.

No, the machine's noise is minimum and nice. You can check it out on YouTube.
