Is this shower very aloud? I bought a faucet from lightinthebox, which looks great and seems to be decent quality but makes a very loud noise.

I'm guessing I have the same faucet :) The shower panel isn't really loud in the same way. It's loud, but it's more that it just puts out a ton of water. I'm not bothered by the noise of the shower the way I am by the faucets - and I have really serious water pressure which accounts for quite a bit of the shower noise. I've nerver had a shower panel so don't have much to compare it to in terms of noise, but when you turn it on the reaction isn't - boy that's loud, but rather boy that's a lot of water. Hope this helps.

The only noise I hear is the water pressure, but anything else. It looks nice, pressure is good. Is just I little difficult to get clean the little jets. Not loud.

We recently got two of these and found that both are fairly loud, but one much more so than the other. Also, the worst noise is not from the initial rush of water, but during the final gurgle as the last of the water goes into the pipe. In one of these it's pretty bad. (Maybe I'll contact American Standard about it, as another responder mentioned doing.)Fill is almost silent. Flush is much stronger than average, but I suspect ours would not pass all the "tests" in the American Standard video of this model.

I feel the same way...very loud. I thought mine was defective, but spent so much installing it and cutting the ceiling that I will just deal with the noise.

I want to say "NO" but it really could be my water supply. The faucet still works, and I love how it looks, but I will be replacing it soon because the buttons to change the water stream no longer work. That in itself is frustrating, we live in the city, have city water and a whole house filter but no water softener. If I had it to do over I would've went with something better.

Since I am a "packrat", still have the box..checked and there's no paperwork. My husband did say it was simple to install..did find "Spec" sheet in my files stating Warranty, Standards, Flow, Operation, Description but not sure that's an official Warranty. I keep with receipt in event there is a problem. Your receipt from Amazon should indicate if the condition is "New"..for more info check www.moen.com or 1-800-BUY-MOEN. Must say, I love this shower head and have had no problems in 5 months we've had it.

I returned it. The faucets were great but the "riser" looked like it was retrieved from a dumpster Actually it was probably OK for a shower, but I did not like the finish if the riser.

No, it is not one of the quieter ones. Personally I think it is fairly loud, especially for one very good reason.That reason is...this pump needs vent holes in the pipe section between the pump and valve. The holes cause water to stream out as the pump is working and after it turns off. This stream is fairly loud.Better to get a pump that specifically doesn't need these vent holes, such as a Wayne unit.

It is indeed a good, strong stream ..... just turn down the volume a tiny bit. I love this faucet!

We purchased our Waste King L-8000 on Amazon. The noise is low....like a humming. Of course, you can tell it is on. I suggest contacting your contractor. It should not be "dramatically loud." If it continues; contact Waste King, they have great service and I believe no cost to you.

The 2 that I have do make that water fountain sound. I only notice it when I take the top off to add water. Otherwise, I don't pay any attention to it. I would consider this very quiet.

why would a general user know that? Call Ana Bath for post sale support.. Personally, its not any louder that i've noticed or would bring up as an issue. For a general answer, any pressurized water when infused with air or interupted by flow restricting turbulence creates noise. think of your sink, or hose with a spray nozzle attached. Remove the screens and flow nozzle from your bathroom sink and no flow restriction, no noise. Remove spray nozzle, water freely escapes at the moderate pressure it is being moved and therefore no noise. i hope reading this was as big a waste of time as your question inherently was in the first place.

K. I got this for a second house. I haven't been there since installed, but my nephew is saying that it is loud. Reach out 2/1, and I will give you an update.

Mine is loud too compared with, say, Air-O-Swiss, which I had before, but I've found I can sleep though it. It doesn't sound like a waterfall, though, just like a motor.

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!

We just installed the faucet last week. It seems to work great no complaints. It was part of a bathroom remodel so was installed by the contractors. It was pretty tight fit on the hose length. We had the ceiling opened up (faucet went upstairs) in the downstairs so they were able to complete installation from that. Not sure how it would have all worked without that being opened up. I was charged a customs bill on this from DHL, I have been told it will be refunded to my credit card but haven't seen it yet.

It is the permeate pump causing the noise, the motor makes noise and then you hear the pressurized flow run through the lines. I bought this unit because I thought I needed a permeate pump being on a well, and my water pressure is perfectly fine. It actually caused too much pressure and made my faucet leak which was the main reason for my return. I now have the exact unit without a permeate pump and I couldn't be happier. If your water pressure is around 60PSI I would return this and get the non permeate unit.

It's noticeable but not the worst I've heard. Putting it up high (be careful, drippage) might block it. We had music and the noise wasn't a problem. Can definitely talk over it.Please be aware that I personally had TERRIBLE dripping problems with mine but perhaps it was a defective item. Best of luck if you purchase!
