Is this wheel really quiet? and would it be ok for a sugar glider?

It is pretty quiet, and I think it could probably work for a sugar glider but you want want to research it a little bit to make sure

It's absolutely silent; I can't even tell when my hamster is running on it. I don't know a lot about sugar gliders but I think it would work for them, however you'd need to buy the 12" size because this one is for mice and dwarf hamsters.

I have gerbils. It is quiet, but my gerbils refused to use it so i went back to their regular silent spinner wheel (which is NOT silent) which they like alot

This isn't the one I purchased but if it's made out of the same material, polypropylene, then no, it's not noisy. Mine and my husbands is very quiet.

Mine was quiet with a chinchilla in it. Only loud when he was running full speed on a 16" diameter metal running wheel that was bolted to the cage wall.

Yes. I have two rats and the 12-inch "giant" wheel is perfect. I will warn you that it is not whisper quiet, though. I think the Silent Spinners are better if you can afford a bit more!

Yes it is, and it is ok. We probably will try to replace it with a thicker cushion eventually. We do love this bike though, it's so quiet and my husband and I both are glad we purchased it.

The motor is not quiet by any means. It's not too bad when idling but when you run the dough through to compress it, it is the loudest sound in the world. My neighbor runs a gear mfg company and said the motor would be quieter if larger.

Not noisy at all. It sounds lust like my rolling brief case. The wheels glide very smothly.

Well I don't know about the ride but it is quiet with the pneumatic wheels when pulling it to the dump station. I have notice the plastic wheels are noisy

no - its very quiet but ours literally came apart in a month - we still use it but the plastic screw that holds the back wheels on broke so that whole side falls off and there is no fix for it!

I researched it a little more and it says ok for gliders. Just google it, and you'll see all kinds of good reviews.

Hey Angela, which type of pet are you asking about? Our wheel was both for 2 sugargliders. One weighs 2 1/2 oz and the other close to 3. They love love love the wheel. They have never had any problems in it. They like to run fast and hold on tight while they ride the wheel round and round. So funny to watch. Hope this answers your question

The height is fixed, the wheel is a few inches above floor level. It is not as loud as a vacuum cleaner, but close. It has been trouble free so far.

By my standards not very. I think it is quieter than my old one was. It is definitely quieter than my daughter's and hers is smaller.

It is very quiet. Even at high speed. I owned a bike stand as well and it is not as noisy as those.

Yes...our sugar glider likes it...you will need to ziptie the bottom of the cage to the outside frame of the cage...our sugar glider was escaping between the large holes between the bottom and outer frame until I ziptied them together every 3-4inches....now all is good

There's no motor, so it makes as much noise as a piece of wood with wheels would :P you control it the same way you would any long board, and speed varies with application of gravity.

I purchased this for work, but was so disappointed with the quality of the tiny wheels and how annoyingly loud they were. I ended up buying a nice cooler from Travelers from wm online for very cheap. And the wheels are inline skates wheels which are very quiet. I must say, it may not be as cute as this one, but it was well worth the few dollars. I hope this helps.
