How much noise does it make? Enough to cause problems living on an upper level in an apartment complex?

We have sand in the base and we have it in our basement on the concrete floor and it does made a bit of noise.

This bag must have sand or water in the base to keep it from moving across the floor when hit. I have 220 pounds of sand in mine and I still move it after hitting it for a while. I don't think this is something you would want on an upper level apartment. They have the big frames that hold a regular heavy bag that might work. Everlast Heavy Bag Stand

We can hear it in the kitchen with the den door closed..it's sort of a light pop, pop, pop sound...it would depend on how you hit it if it would be a problem

It depends on what you are doing with it and the surface it is on, but it would be noisy it you are knocking it over.

It does make a lot if noise. I was living in a townhome and this was in the basement. My family in the second floor was able to hear the noise and my neighbors had problem too

This does make noise when hitting or kicking. Ours is in the basement & I hear my husband punching it. If he kicks it hard enough it actually teeters back & forth.

Sorry I don't know. I purchased for resale and the customer has not mentioned any excessive noise

It is not too noisy. On the other hand I used it in a kitchen where the noise level is higher then in an office. Good luck.

Elizabeth the only thing I have noticed is when it is running it does give noise in the electrical power that is picked up with AM radio. I think it will be OK for an apartment. If you are above ground floor it is heavy and an elevator would assist with delivery or when you move!

if it's on LOW , yes....with MED and HIGH it makes more noise, but it's no louder than a small fan. You'll be ok.

I use this unit in my shop, so noise is not a factor, on the high mode you can hear the fan, maybe too loud for inside your home. Does an excellent job in my shop.

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.

I have it in an outbuilding with a finished upper level. We are in Michigan, worked perfectly last winter, kept the building (832 sqft down, 512 sqft up) very comfortable. We watch television upstairs directly over the heater, up there noise not an issue. In the open space where heater is, acceptability of noise level and air movement would be subjective (not objectionable to me).

Not quiet for sure but probably no noisier than other vacuum cleaners I've had other past 20 years. I definitely would not use it late at night or early morning so as not to disturb apartment neighbors.

It is high pitched. Blends in well in a living area, but I wouldn't want it in a bedroom.

It isnt extremely noisy but after a lot of use it starts to get louder. I wouldn't use it at the office because it gives off a whirling sound that some people find annoying. I like to use it at home when I'm watching tv where the only people around who I can bother are my roommates. Try it out though and see if anyone has a problem with it.

It is still fairly loud. The lower setting isn't too loud but if you really want to move things, you'll probably need it on the higher setting and it's noticeably louder.

In our house (2 story) just a little of th noise comes through to the first floor. However, condos have a bad reputation (true or not) for hardly any sound absorbing material between units, so I am sorry to say that it would be hard for m to give you a clear idea without knowing for sure what your place is like. Sorry if this does not help but it is the best I can do with my limited knowledge of your condo.

not loud, I don't think it would be heard by a neighbor, unless one was below your unit, there might be some detected through the floor to their ceiling.

I had no problem with noise from the unit. Even slept with it in a small bedroom and was surprised I didn't notice it after a short while. It is rated for 800 square ft. which meant I had to move it around until the problem resolved, but that was my fault for not paying attention to the details. Otherwise very pleased with the product. Hope this helps.

Neighbors would definitely would not complain. It is not very loud. I always run at 2/3 capacity and find it is at a very tolerable level. I can imagine putting a towel under it and you almost wouldn't hear it. hope this helps/ i am very happy with this machine.

Though it could be because of how we assembled it (possible loose bolts on the neck), mine is a bit loud. Loud squeaking with each step. I don't think it's heard by my neighbors, but my apartments are pretty good on sound blocking (though if they do hear something, it's probably the TV, as I turn that up a little louder to hear it over the elliptical).
