Unit makes loud screeching or scraping sound at start of every new cycle for about 60 seconds. Not fan. Anyone else experience this?

Nope, what we hear is the water filling and the flap rising but it isnt loud, screeching, or scraping. You may need to exchange your unit. There may be a defect with that particular one. Good Luck!

Hi, Haven't had ours for long enough to have any problems. However, knowing what little I know about electrical heating elements, if it's making noise that's probably not a good sign. Would take the time to send it in either for repair or replacement. These aren't complicated devices, but the potential for fire is always lurking the background. Don't want to overkill, but wouldn't take any chances... Jay Miller

Yep, same here. My original unit used to work with occasional screeching sound.. Replacement worked for a week, then screeching came back and now disconnects as soon as I try playing something...

Yes - mine squeals (ordered October 2014), I'm pretty sure it's an inductor or similar on the inside. Only occurs when a device is plugged in (so when the DC/DC inside is actually under load).

I also have a noisy video. First there is the constant sound like water from a faucet and second is the sound from the auto focus clicking like morse ccode. Anybody else have this issue? Is it possible to get it replaced from a good batch? Or all items in this model have this issue?

Never have heard anything , but hums or noises could be resistance... either from outlet or heater unit itself.... but noise shouldn't happen.... prob wanna get that checked

I ended up replacing mine. It was noisy and would stop on its own. I'd simply replace it!

We have had this unit for several months, (in our kitchen), and I have never heard the unit run. I've heard the question asked before, but we have not had any issues with noise or otherwise. Very happy with our purchase...

Mine is very noisy with a high pitched whine. It cleans like a dream though!

I have two units; one for heat and one for the AC. Only the one for the AC clicks on and off. The manufacturer offered to replace it, but then said that 50% of them make that noise. Of course, the AC hasn't been on in months (I live in PA), but I actually think that either it stopped the clicking, or I got used to it and totally ignored it. I actually had two Honeywells for years that were totally quite, but they became inaccurate and shut the heat and AC on and off, and that noise was louder than the clicking. Ya can't always get what you want.

When mine was first installed, my electrician said I would hear some noises (something like a popping noise) after the unit shuts off and that would be normal. I'm not sure why. I've had mine installed for over 7 months and have not had any issues with it. I don't know for sure if it no longer makes the noise, or if it stops after a time.

Mine is noisier than I would expect at times, but nothing that has caused me too much alarm. I thought I heard it click a few times, but so far nothing reproducible or any overheating.

My machine has developed the same noise. The old machine I had also had a rubbing noise at the flywheel. I have used this machine heavily for the last six months.It still runs fine. I use music to mask the noise. Its not noticable.

It sounds like a defective unit. Mine works perfectly.... knock on wood... no issues so far and I've had it for over a yr.

I only got to use mine 3 times before it went in the shop but I dont recall a sound like that. I did find out my noise is from a bad hepa filter and roller brush...neither of which were replaced before I got it or are covered under the warranty. I am really wondering now what gets replaced on these "reconditioned" units. Knowing that, you may want to have it checked out. Good luck :-D

No. I'm already having problem. It started making noise when I increase speed the second week I got it. So I can't use it as I wanted on a daily base.

I haven't experienced that with my unit. Sounds like you need to contact customer service.
