which small angle grinder is the quietest? smooth operating and quiet running is the hallmark of a superior engineered power tool. Almost no one mentions these important issues in their reviews--WHY?

Chances are if it's quiet it doesn't have enough power to do the job. Wear ear protection and get the job done. And stop whining.

Namely because when a grinder is used it is grinding &/or cutting and that very act is going to create a lot of noise (which is why I wear hearing protection). I have four grinders presently (all different manufactures) and have never thought that one was quieter or noisier than another.

I can answer best by comparing it to a Magic Bullet and our old Black & Decker processor; It is a whisper compared to the Bullet and much quieter than the Black & Decker. Of course, if you are making granola and processing roasted almonds, any processor will be noisy. Overall, the induction motor is very soft. Does that help?

Hello Umbeyonce,We've recently added a lid to our hopper as it does make grinding more convenient. I use my grinder every day and since adding a lid I've been able to grind more quickly without worrying about the angle I'm holding the grinder at. The lid lets you be much more casual and a bit reckless during the grinding process.Best regards!AlexTeam Kuissential

I used a variable speed drive that I plugged my fixed speed grinder into.A fixed speed grinder turns much to fast without using something to slow down the RPMs

Most small grinders spin to fast. Rpms should be at 3000 or less so you probably need a varible speed one. And they work much better with water. Without water they get too hot. I used mine with a random orbit sander since I did not have a polisher that can use water.

You can use a fan speed controller to reduce the speed of an angle grinder. They cost about $25

Not much noise or vibration compared to other clippers. It does have a narrow blade so be careful not to muscle your way thru the matts. Let the tool do the work.

It's not as loud as something like a vitamix, but it's not quiet either. You could probably put a towel over the grinder and muffle the sound.

Mine only makes a quick, not too loud of a noise, right as it turns on... before it starts to grind. It only lasts a fraction of a second. I would be concerned if you have a continuing noise. I would exchange it, rather than worry every time you use it.

I don't know what the running rpm speed is for this grinder, but I can tell you that it runs super smooth. You turn it on and it winds up like a jet engine... but no shake, no wobble, no shimmy, nothing. It's smooth and powerful. When you finish and turn it off it will run free for at least a full minute. If you need a good grinder, you won't go wrong. I try to buy the best tools on the market and keep them for life. This grinder fits the bill. Best of luck. *Try googling the specs on the grinder or download a manual.

listen--this is a bad ass grinder-- makes a bit of noise--and kicks ass---buy it-- nothing seems to stop it--if the sizes are a bit large--run it through again

It a pretty smooth running machine, so not too much extra noise. Quieter then many I've owned except the festool.

Mine is definitely not variable speed. I don't know why you would need that feature in a grinder, though. This is the best 4 1/2" grinder I ever have used, and I've used some pricier ones.

I haven't had any problems however the first two I had quit working after only one time. This is my 3rd one since March and up to this point & time is working, the grinder produces consistent and smooth grind. No complaints at this time however if #3 doesn't work out, I will not get another one. This one is perfect, right now.

I've used Zassenhaus peppermills and other of their grinders for >20 years. I've never noticed any unusual noises or high decibels. I have had a couple of failures, one that was replaced for no cost (within 10 years, through Penzey's Spices who don't sell them anymore). I like them because I prefer crank mills that don't aggravate carpel tunnel. I recently replaced a baby peppermill for traveling.

It is not nearly as noisy as an electric grinder. I wouldn't use our blade grinder in the morning before my wife is up for fear that i might wake her. I have no problem using my Hario. (Day saved!)

That grinder has a cfm rating for continuous use. Your small compressor will run it, but may run out of air. But regardless. That grinder is a great tool.
