how loud is this machine?

That is a fairly relative question. Some consider hand mixers and submersion mixers to be loud. This is a powerful mixer - made for heavy loads - so I imagine it would disturb a sleeping cat - let's put it that way. But it is stable on the table.

This is by no means a silent machine, but I never found the sound to be abnormally loud. Mine was a moderate level of sound.

The machine itself is not loud at all. Its the whine the blade makes when cutting that is loud.

pretty loud. It is crushing ice so that has to be taken into account. I'd say normal conversation can't be heard over it if you are running it in the kitchen around an island or something.

It's pretty loud - you're not going to want to inflate this with other people sleeping. But it's not as loud as some I've heard. I had one with an external pump and that was like a jet engine. This is more like a blow dryer.

I think it is somewhat loud, but it is significantly less loud if you hold it in your hands rather than have it sitting on the counter. If you need it really quiet, you can always put a towel around it (I've done this when grinding coffee at night).

I haven't used it in almost a year...but I do not recall it being loud at all. It lasted the entire time of my daughter's party until we turned it off.

Neighbors would definitely would not complain. It is not very loud. I always run at 2/3 capacity and find it is at a very tolerable level. I can imagine putting a towel under it and you almost wouldn't hear it. hope this helps/ i am very happy with this machine.

I'm not sure if it's considered "loud" compared to other units, but it's not a quiet model. It does work very well and a great item for the price.

I don't remember it being loud, just a little motorized noise. You should return it and have it replaced if it's loud! Good luck!:)

It's about as loud as a vacuum. But being on the countertop puts it closer to your ears and kitchens are mostly hard surfaces. I find it uncomfortably loud so I keep a pair of inexpensive ear muffs in the cabinet over my Versa. Otherwise I am very happy with its performance as a smoothie maker.

One other comment to add. I read where one person said it was loud. Mine is relatively quiet...much quieter than an up right.

For the size that it is, I think it is fairly loud. I use it for my excerise room and bathroom and it's loud enough that I can hear it clearly. The sound carries out well.

It isn't very loud at all, in fact the water coming out hitting the water in the bottom makes more sound than the unit its self , I don't hear the motor, just the sound of water. I purchased a smaller cheaper unit a few months prior and the motor was lound, I have could hearing and it would wake me so I had to return it. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure. I gave it to my niece who lives across the ocean. I know that it makes sounds, and that she likes it, but I honestly don't know how loud it is.

About as loud as a small compressor. I have it running a vacuum table inside and I can hear it a little from the next room with the door closed.
