I've had mine for about a year. When in one setting it makes an odd "clunking" sound periodically. Is this common?

I can only echo other comments, no sounds when changing light modes. You might Try plugging it into a different electrical socket that is on a different circuit. This would rule out voltage problems I think. Good luck.

I wish I could help you on this, but I can't. I've only had mine for a few weeks now and haven't run into that problem. Sorry!

Don't know as I have had mine for a couple months. Have you check with the manufacturer?

I haven't heard any sounds from my light so far.I think its a pretty good design Possibly the switch is intermittent.Try turning another light setting and then switch back.

My still fairly brief experience is the same as the other respondents, I.e. I haven't had this problem or any others so far.

I've had mine for almost a year with no noise or other issues... I vaguely recall a couple reviews with that complaint, though... you'd have to check reviews from 2011 to find 'em... quality control is never foolproof unfortunately...

Thank you! That was definitely part of my problem. One last question: when opening, I hear a pleasant ratcheting sound, which I don't hear when closing. Does yours also not make that sound in one direction?

I have never had this problem. I've had mine for well over a year and a half and mine is in great condition. I bought this one as a gift.

Mine makes a noise that I was initially concerned about but after reading JcrusR2's answer I can verify that in my case, he is right (The only thing that might be loose is the plastic On Button. The inside should be solid.) Try shaking it and checking to see if the noise is coming from the power button. You can also jiggle the button lightly with your finger and produce the same sound.

Mine never made that pitched noise, and I don't think it is normal. What I would do: exchanging it only. In my opinion, Cuisinart is dependable. ...But even the best one may fail some time, I guess.

Mine isn't noisy at all. And mine works awesome and is well worth the price. Just bought mine used do I didn't spend the money a new one would be. Maybe it's clogged ?

I noticed that mine does that as well, it also has a funny sound from the wheels when it rolls. I wonder if that zipping sound is the bristles of the brush rubbing against the plastic housing.

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.

I just got my unit also about two weeks ago and notice a somewhat annoying creeking and clicking sound with every rotation. I have written to the sellers about this but have not received any reply. Will have to call to get an answer.

Mine has. I've had it for about a year maybe, and that's what I usually do.

I have had mine for about 1 year. I think the noise you hear is just the motor when it clicks on, if you have it on auto like I do.

I've had mine for about 6 months and have never had this issue. It is used daily.

I have never had that problem and I have owned mine for several years. I would recommend you contact the manufacturer it could be a malfunction.

Mine does the same, as did my previous model. It's annoying but not a big problem to me.
