Would you say that this treadmill is quiet compared to others. Would it disturb someone in the next room if I were to use it?

I don't know about compared to others because it's the only one I've owned, but you can hear it in the other room. I won't use mine while others are still sleeping, but if they are awake, I don't think it's loud enough to be a distraction.

This treadmill is very well built. It is a very comfortable treadmill to run on, with this in mind it is built more for comfort than being quite to run on. The quality of this treadmill is comparable to what you would find at the gym. I'm not sure if it would disturb the person in the next room.

I can hear it but it does not disturb me. Ours is in a corridor next to the master bedroom.

It is quieter than my last treadmill (when I don't have my iPod plugged in to use the built in speakers and play my music loud). We have the treadmill in a bedroom which is near two other bedrooms and shut the door and it doesn't bother anyone. I will say we are a family that sleeps with fans running so maybe that is an added buffer to the treadmill sound. I do not think it is noisy. The only issue is a bad design where the cover is located at your feet - you step on it occassionally. We fixed this problem by adding a 1-1/4" wood dowelling that fits into the handles perfectly and hold onto the dowel instead of the built-in handle bars. I can send you a pic if interested if you give an email address. It is quieter than my last treadmill (when I don't have my iPod plugged in to use the built in speakers and play my music loud).

I find it very quiet when just running. But when I walk on it, it is noisier than I expected. There doesn't seem to be any padding under the rubber mat you walk on, so just the walking motion of your feet is fairly noisy. I've gotten used to it, but if you are sharing an office, the other person might find the noise level annoying.

It's not noisy but not perfectly quiet. Just a low humming sound. I have used it in my bedroom and it did not keep my awake but some people are more sensitive to sounds than others.

My LifeSpan Fitness TR3000i Folding Treadmill is so quiet I only turn my TV volume to 10. Also my wife and I cannot hear each other walking on it from the next room. It is also very smooth and a pleasure to walk on. The console is easy to read and the controls are very easy to adjust.Hope this helps. I looked at many reviews before I purchased it and I am very satisfied with my decision.Anderson

Off the top, I would say "Why not"? However, to be absolutely sure I suggest you contact either the seller or the manufacturer. I use it periodically when my treadmill begins to squeak. Completely silences it.

It is not silent and it is not noisy. You can easily hold a conversation while standing next to it. It is quieter than window air conditioners I've been around. If it is running next to the head of the bed while you are trying to sleep, there is no doubt you will know it is there. Will it annoy you? My wife is phonophobic and on low speed it didn't bother her: she described it as a white noise she could overlook.

Well, other members of my household have informed me that it sounds like a ceiling fan to individuals in neighboring rooms. I have a home with thin walls, and I was told that my treadmill is actually louder than the Kurt, hope this helps.

The motor is quiet when under 4.0 mph and gets louder as you go up, but with any treadmill, the noise will be from you running and stomping. That will be terrible for your neighbors below so my suggestion would be to pick up two 'Thick Interlocking Black Foam Tiles for Treadmill & Equipment' which amazon sells. The more padding and/or carpeting the better.

I don't think it is very quiet, making a sort of chugging/humming sound. I'm noise sensitive, so it would bother me if someone was near me while they were using it. If you were in another room, I don't think it could be heard, however.

While the noise of this de-humidifier is not invasive or overly loud, it is noticeable. Mine is down in the basement, so is not bothersome. If you place it near a bedroom, it could be a distraction, but I have owned different models of them down through the years, and I don't believe it to be any louder than the others, and just might be a touch more quiet.

I suppose your sensitivity to noises would determine whether this fan would be considered quiet or not to you. I would call it moderately quiet on high speed and quite quiet on lower speeds. I keep it on medium speed and the small amount of noise it puts out is not at all disturbing and the fan is located in a bedroom. It is used only in the Summer to boost air conditioning. The unit is turned up-side-down so that it throws air up. it works perfectly well that way and still responds to the remote control as it should.

The treadmill is quiet, as advertised. Mine is outdoors about 10 feet from my neighbor's patio seating area. No complaints. It's been super helpful for my dog.

We run ours on low & it's in the far corner of the room, so in ours is very quiet. It depends on what speed you run it on & how far you are from it.

We have ours on the second floor of our house you can hear it running when your downstairs but it's not too bad it's quieter than the other treadmill that we have. We did put a very thick mat under it the ones that get-together sort of like a puzzle

Hi, I live in a one story home...but I do the tread climber at 4 am and no one in my house has complained about the noise. We put foam puzzle mats under it so that it would not damage the floor so this may be helping too. Note: we keep our house pretty cool about 63 degrees. It takes the shocks a few minutes to warm up so it is a little bit clunky at first. Also this thing has wheels but is extremely heavy once it is put together so moving it up and downstairs if you move will take two grown strong men. But this is not a bad thing because it feels sturdy when supporting the weight of my 300 lb husband, some machine we have had in the past feel flimsy.

I have been using the treadmill for about 6 months. It's not noisy and only beeps 3 times when you press start and stop as others state increasing your speed does beep. I have a co-worker in the same office about 8-10 feet away and they can't hear it. as you increase your speed the belt will get louder. I am walking at 2 miles per hour with no issues.
