Is it silent? I cant stand any ticking noise.

It is quiet. However, the ground prong pulled out the second time I pulled it out of the receptacle. Haven't yet communicated with the seller about the problem.

There is a low volume tick when the timer activates/deactivates the outlet. But it is silent otherwise.

Many of these 'nrtbooks' make that sound. Some are just louder than others. For me, that sound does not bother me as much as fan noise. That will make it or break it for me. But I know the 'ticking' on and off can get annoying too.

The ticking noises on the features that I stated previously was due to the timer but I have notice different sounds for different settings. Also, I do recall using toaster setting once and I heard nothing out of the ordinary, only the timer ticking noise.

If you press it against your ear as you would a phone, you could hear a faint tick. Otherwise, it is quiet. The alarm is surprisingly loud for the size of the clockFYI: The size is 2 1/2" x 2 1/2" x 1 1/2"

How much noise does it make ?? This is an electronic timer and I don't think it makes anymore noise than the audible click you may here when it is programmed to turn on (or off). You may have it confused with analog timers that make a slight rattling noise as long as they are plugged in. This timer is very quiet.

I do not hear it when I'm in the room with it, even watching quiet movies, but if I put my head next to it there is a minor mechanical noise - not a tick, but as though gears are moving very slowly (which I imagine they are) but again, it is VERY quiet and I *only* hear it if I am less than a foot away

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

It is not completely silent. There is a little noise but it doesn't bother me even when running in bedroom through the night. I am a light sleeper. When it is on in the living room with other ambient noise you don't notice it. We are happy with it.

It is quite silent. It's noise really doesn't bother. The cooling is not great. Sometimes the bottom part is colder than the top despite it's programmed otherwise.

I don't think that it is noisy. There is a ticking timer that goes tick-tock tick-tock when I twist the timer to turn it on, and once the water is boiling it's about as loud as a covered pot of boiling water, but that's about it.

It's fairly quiet, but there is a low hum. If you need total silence this will not do for you. However, this is the quietest battery-operated fan that I found.

It does make noise but its not that loud. I have it right next to my desk. when its not running it is silent.

No there is no ticking sound. My daughter uses it for her homework and we use it in the morning to get ready for school. It works great. I do like it a lot.

You should not hear any clicking. This unit is rather quiet.Interestingly enough the first one I bought started making a loud Vibrating noise. I had to have it replaced. My new one did it again (once so far). I'm concerned that the quality of this model is not up to what I expect from Corsair.

It's silent if you turn it on without movement. If you let it oscillate, you might hear it move, but it's still nearly silent even then. I'm not sure I hear it even when oscillating.
