Does anyone know the decibels on the lowest setting, or any setting? Thank you!

I don't know about decibels....I never noticed any company that sells fans to post that. However, all the Vornado fans I have had (and there have been several), they have always been pretty quiet. I am a fan of Vornado fans....have always been happy with them all.

Mine is very quiet and actually relaxing because it keeps out the outside noises. I am ordering another one soon.

Never had that issue. I did remove mine because of the sound.Just sounded really bad.Anybody wanna buy it for $100 ?

Haven't tried that. I will give it a go today or tomorrow. Get back to me then. So I tested the unit on both program content and commercial content. Both were in the range of 38-40 db. Didn't see any difference in the sound level between them.

Judith, I'm not certain of the decibel level, however my friend is also hearing impaired. She has used my phone. She has mentioned, she can "barely hear" anything. And that's when the phone was working.

Hey. I really wish I could help you but I have no idea on an ACCURATE frequency range. I remember reading some stuff when I bought them, but that was only what the company or Amazon claimed about them. I don't know if there's a way to measure, but I don't have any tools for that kind of thing.

Yes, just turn the volume down to the lowest setting. It's not technically off, but it may as well be.

Not sure on the decibel level but it is loud at full volume. Just keep your box you may need it for return.

As I have no decimeter the answer is it is not very loud. You should not have a problem with the noise level.

Thank all for your responses. The unit is useless for me as I need to know the AVERAGE sound level over a period of time.

It looks like the volume can be turned down to low. The directions say it has "volume control for quieter play".

On the high setting it is really very loud. The volume drops considerably once you switch to the lower two settings. It is not really noticeable.

On the low setting I do not hear it at all...and I am very sensitive to noise.

Thanks for the question. It has nothing to do with settings-it's muffled. The Companion 2 is like that too-not good, BOSE! If all Bose products are being developed this way I won't being buying any more.

Great idea! I downloaded the decibel meter App, and with the fan running it read an average of 62Db = "normal conversation" (vs. 42Db = "average household room") . So, its like having a 2 strangers come to your kitchen and have a conversation overtop of you all the time the fan is running...

When I say they are loud, they are loud. I can't even put them up to 50 without dealing with roommates or other people next door having to tell me to turn it down. I haven't had that happen unless on my game or watching TV. That's just me on the audio quality. I still need to mess with it to see if there's a way, if I wanted to, to change the audio to concert hall or some other kind of audio format option.

I read the (decibel) dB's is high 50's on low fan. IMO, it is in-between loud and quiet, in the middle. Most of the noise comes from the water being hit by the condenser fan at the rear of the unit. Another noise I heard was the grille forward of the air filter which was vibrating. Two small foam pieces strategically placed, which came with the unit, removed that noise.
