Does it beep? It seems that many modern toasters make annoying and unnecessary sounds with no way to turn them off.

Yes, it beeps twice. There is no way to silence it. I also find this annoying and unnecessary.

It does beep, but only twice and I don't find it annoying. Helps me actually if I've gotten busy doing something else. I really like this toaster.

No. It does not beep. I use setting number 2 which takes only 2 1/2 minutes to toast. Occasionally I use setting 3 which is still only 3 1/4 minutes.

It beeps when you push the buttons and when it's preheated and when it's done. I don't know how you would make the noise lower or frankly why it's such a big deal. It's certainly not a deal breaker for me. I don't mind because it beeps as an alert. You will hear it and isn't that the point? :)

I don't think so, my toaster has never made any noise when plugged in. You may want to have your outlet checked.

It has a "ding" but it is not loud. The toaster shuts off at that point, and the toast stays warm until you lift the cage manually.

No. Mine makes a small sound when the toast pops up, but not a loud one. We toast pop tarts, bagels and regular bread and have never had a problem. No loud noises.

Yes, it does beep when you set controls, and no you cannot change the volume of the beep unfortunately, but it is still a good toaster oven, but I just overlook that part of it.

I don't believe so. Checked the manual to be sure, and saw nothing about turning off the beep sound. The beep isn't what's loud on the microwave though. It's just the sound it makes while running.

This toaster has a soft, high-pitched "beep" (softer than a microwave). You can hear it if you're in the kitchen; it will not wake anyone up! Remember, the cage stays down until you lift it, does not pop-up, keeping your toast or muffin warm.

It does beep when you turn it on. So turning it off and then on again could help you.

Not that I am aware, however it beeps when it is ready. If I forget to get the toast out I just put back on level one to reheat. Honestly, I love this toaster, well worth the money.

Megan: You should not have a high pitched noise when you plug it in. I would exchange it. I have the four slice version and like it very much. It does a better job of toasting than any toaster I have had before. I especially like the bagel setting and my husband like the reheat setting. We have not had a reason to use the defrost setting. The count down is especially helpful when making eggs to go with the toast, as everything is timed to be down perfectly.

I never tried. The beep is so low you have to be right next to the toaster to even hear it.

Yes, it beeps. I don't mind the initial beep, it's the reminders afterward I could do without. Beeps set aside, it's a great microwave.

No, it does not beep. You look for the display to stop changing, which only takes a few seconds.

yeah, a very loud beep. I look forward to a solution as well. It beeps every single time you press a button, so for me, that is a minimum of 4 loud beeps to get up and running. "ON" "SPEED(2 times)" "COOL"...totally annoying. I assume this is what you're talking about?

No. I've never heard my beep. It beeps when you plug it in and as you set the timer. I don't use the light feature so I don't know if that makes a difference or not.
