Is the motor when running quiet ?

Very. With the insulated lid on, you can be seated next to the spa and hardly be aware the motor is running.

It is fairly quiet, it also depends on the load, if you run at 90% of rated capacity it will be louder than running at 40%. I have ran the generator through the night and it was not bothersome at all.

The sound of the motor is not loud or annoying...not in my estimation. It's performance outweighs the sound it makes. It's well worth the money.

Yes it is quiet compared to other models I have had in the past. Works real well too!

Don't know about the motor, but we can say that it is virtually soundless! There is a few seconds of detectable sound when you first turn it on and that is all. The only drawback is there is only one controller so you have to negotiate with your bedmate when the heat goes on and off.

Noise is different to each person; however I find it to have a normal motor sound which is not that loud. I run mine in an enclosed garage, checking on it periodically.

Actually, no. It's quiet silent. I was surprised to hear it. I thought it would be way more noisy.

It is a diaphragm pump, so they do vibrate when running. If it is mounted using the rubber mounts and isn't touching anything else, it should be pretty quiet.

Yes. Very quiet. I love mine. I have had it for about 5 months now and so far it has been worth the money I paid.

I don't find it excessively loud. It's a gas powered motor after all . I just know it works great and have had no problems with it .

well describing loud is kinda hard but being a centrifugal fan helps it to be quiet, I think the only noise you hear is from the air being blown out. the motor itself you don't hear.

No, this machine is whisper quiet. You'll be surprised at how little noise it makes.

It makes a gentle whirring type noise - really the motor running. It didn't bother me though.

No, the motor is not loud when it's running. The motor with battery weighs less than 15lbs but if you're referring to loading it with 15lbs, I definitely not recommend it coz the wire that attachment for hanging is not for heavy load. The motor has an on/off switch.

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

I haven't noticed the motor being loud at all. We use it in our church nursery, but we have been very happy with it.

yes, unfortunately the motor is at least. That is the only marked part. The first motor worked maybe 10 times, then quit. The company did replace it and it is much quieter than the first one. so far, so good. Maybe 3 times.
