How loud is the machine? will it wake people sleeping in the next room?

Yes it will wake anyone around. It is a loud machine especially when tamping the ground coffee. However, it is the best entry level superautomatic you can buy. It is loud.

It might. It has coffee grinder, so it makes a typical noise. This machine is average with regards to noise.

If waking the people sleeping in the next room is your only reason for not buying this most excellent machine, I'd say just serve them up a fresh cup and they won't mind at all...

It grinds the beans so that bit is loud then when it compresses the puck to make the coffee there is a double "clank" sound. The grinding sound is like being next door to a typical coffee grinder. Depends on how heavy a sleeper they are!

It's not super noisy but it's not whisper quiet either. I have mine in the living room, I don't know that it'd be good for running overnight in a bedroom. Also, I live in NYC and probably have a higher noise tolerance than people who live in rural or suburban areas.

Depends on how close others are. It does make some noise, but I, personally, do not find it loud.

Ma'am:I am hearing disabled and I cannot answer that question. I don't think it would be loud enough to be heard in the next room, as you asked.Sorry if I am not able to answer the question completely.

Not too noisy. Might wake a light sleeper in the next room with the doors open.

The machine itself is quiet overall. I use it on the 2nd level of my home and the living room is directly below me so I use a mat underneath and it absorbs most of the noise. Ocassionally my kids say they hear it but don't when the TV is on loud enough. I'd suggest placing a treadmill mat underneath if you live in an older apartment. The machine has a small footprint so it can be used in a number of places but may need 2 people to move it around or get it upstairs so hopefully you have an elevator. Good Luck!

Hi Amy,The alarm was loud enough to wake my husband and I up from across the hall, but my son slept right through it every time. We'd have to go wake him up. Quite honestly the alarm is so loud and so close to his ear I was concerned about hearing damage. You really don't want an alarm louder than this one. The volume is adjustable.

It makes a noise but not so loud that it would wake someone up. Just my opinion. My family are not light sleepers though!

It is not loud at all. I use mine in the basement while my family is asleep. I use it to cut brass and it is about as loud as a box fan on high power. You should be fine.

I have the Concept two. It's quiet. The noise from the machine is not an issue.

In my opinion, this is a very quiet mattress. However, I think if people are moving around on it, the sound won't wake you as much as the movement might. It's firm enough to sit on the end and put on shoes, but it is still and air mattress and anyone moving on it will disturb others. It doesn't really make any squeaks or noises when moving, especially if covered with a blanket/sheet. Also, the secondary, "keep full" air pump is very quiet. So quiet I didn't notice it was even on, unless I stopped and really listened for it.

No louder then a window mounted A/C unit. The bedroom is where I use my Whynter unit, for me the unit doesn't effect my sleep.

It is very quiet. It runs all night while we sleep. Sometimes we have to go over to the machine and check to see if is still on. Even if you should happen to hear the unit, it is a "white noise" that will help you sleep.

I don't think it is. I use the alarm in my classroom, and it reaches over the voices of 30+ students so it is quite loud. Still, I personally do not find it jarring.

It does make a noise. It is steady. I sleep with it on. It is an awesome machine. I highly recommend it.

The machine is quiet, but if you're walking on it, people will probably hear you.. especially if you break into a jog.. You may be able to cut down on the noise by purchasing a treadmill pad. The more padding you have, the less noise. It all really depends on how heavy you are, how loud you walk. ^_^

Let's face it: if you're in the same room with a snorer, you're out of luck. This is a wonderful little machine, and its purpose is to provide a nice steady ambient noise. It's great for helping you stay asleep through occasional sounds like cars going down the street or the furnace kicking on and off. But if you're partnered with someone who snores loudly, you're still gonna hear that. Best I can tell you is try the machine out, and if it doesn't drown out the sawmill next to you, take it to another room and shut the door behind you!
