How is the noise? I read some review saying the noise is annoying sometimes?

Mine was pretty quiet most of the time. On startup the cpu fan would be a bit loud but it would quiet down again after a few seconds. I had it for two years, never annoyed me. I had the core i5 3330, gtx 660.

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.

I didn't notice any noise problem with mine. It is a pretty good recorder for the price

It is a bit noisy. You will have to turn up a television or radio if your kitchen is near. Not sonic booms but does get a little annoying.

Ha-Ha! Never thought of that. Mine isn't as loud - perhaps because I used foam on all 4 sides (the peel'n'stick type) on the window itself. Yes, there is noise - the unit is pretty basic (and I knew this) - but the price was good, so I balanced out the noise with $ savings. Also, it seems that the unit is pretty crudely built, so maybe there are noise levels which vary from unit to unit. It runs well, for me. I also live in NYC, so noise isn't an issue, it's a daily lifestyle.

I didn't try it out at Babies R Us since it was ordered online. How should it normally sound? Rather loud or quiet?

One other comment to add. I read where one person said it was loud. Mine is relatively quiet...much quieter than an up right.

Mine isn't silent, but isn't horrible. Sounds like an issue to bring up with manufacturer. They might replace the unit.

I don't think it's noisy at all. The only noticeable sound I can recall of comes from the fan, still quite discrete.

The noise level is moderate and what would be expected for what the machine does. The noise has not been an issue for me.

It is not bad. We use it in a room with other ambient noise so we don't notice it at all. In a super quiet room you may hear it.

Its pretty good, actually! Its not the MOST silent vacuum I've ever owned, but the power to noise ratio far surpasses previous vacuums. Usually with less noise comes a less powerful vacuum. And it has more of a low tone, so it's much less obnoxious. I definitely dont feel like Im disturbing my neighbors. Come to think of it, my roommate has told me, with his bedroom door closed, he can barely hear anything if Im vacuuming the living room.

On high speed it is pretty noisy,but not more than a bladed fan. I'm pretty sensitive to noise so maybe it's me. On low it is just fine

Hi there. We sort of like the monitor, don't love it. The sound is annoying. There are 6 levels, but no matter which setting you choose, it does this thing where it's one level when you set it, but then it lowers. Whenever there's sound in the room, it goes back up to where you originally set it. In other words, it tries to think for you? You put it at one setting, but then it lowers. It's frustrating. If I want the sound on HIGH, then leave it there, don't decide FOR ME that I really want it lower.That said, the sound itself is just fine. LOL. If baby cries, you'll hear it!

It is kind of noisy but there is no "clanking" sound while using it.Tthe only other noise that i hear is a click [or clank if you call i that] when you turn it on and off. It works REALLY well though. I hope this helps you.

there is some cable noise in all my earbuds, and yes I find it annoying. I notice it mostly during phone conversations. Music playback is excellent.
