Is it quiet enough to us at a cube within an office?

Lynn, it doesn't make a sound at all. It's a magnetic resistance system... no noise!

this is very quiet- husband does not even know I am on it and I am only about 6 feet away from the door to his office.

Yes. I live in a second floor apartment and it doesn't disturb anyone downstairs. It's very quiet.

Yes. I bought it because I live in a second floor apartment and didn't want to disturb my neighbor downstairs. It's really quiet.

It makes a little bit of noise. Nothing overly obnoxious, which is a great thing, as I work in an office environment.

Ours is in an office laboratory with other noises as well so I can't really say if it's noisy. The only time I really hear it is when I open the door. Hopefully this helps with your decision.

It is about the same noise level as most blenders. Depending on your own office environment, it might be disruptive to co- workers even if you only use it once a day for a few minutes.

I have it in my cubicle at work and can't get more than 4 or 5 feet from it but you can definitely feel it within that range. It moves a fair amount of air for it's size, and it's quiet. I'm happy with it.

I have mine in my office and I do not have any problems with it being noisy. Maybe the others don't have it balanced right, or the back is too close to the wall. But mine is very quiet. I hope this helps.

It's not super quiet, but I don't think you can hear it through a closed door. I used it at work for a year in my closed office.

It may work very well in an office. It has a single very loud sound that does not stop until you turn it off.

You can use it in a cubicle setting if you want. Just try to place it where it can get good air flow. I keep mine on a two-drawer filing cabinet in my living room. I also have one placed on the floor in my bedroom closet. It has a pretty powerful fan so don't place it close to loose papers, tissues, etc.

On the lower setting the fan is reasonable for an office (mine is used at work). It would be noticed only as white noise in my opinion. On high it is louder.

Hi, Sorry about my delayed response. I ordered this fridge for a student lounge area, so I'm not sure if the noise it makes in there would be bothersome in an office setting. Dave

It's not silent, but it's pretty quiet. I think it would be hard to hear in an active office, and I doubt you could hear it through a cubicle wall. But this definitely a slight hum.

How close are your coworkers? What is the background noise like in the office? This is not a quiet keyboard, but if you have a reasonable level of white noise, or reasonably sized cubes, it won't be an issue.I love this keyboard and would make my coworkers deal even if I sat right next to one.

It is quiet. Don't buy if you plan on using it on surfaces other than a table or desk.

I've asked a couple of people at work and they report the sound leakage is minimum at higher volume. We have separate cubes at my workplace and I've gotten no complaints. I've also had someone else wear them to hear it for myself and it's very quiet.

Sorry. I mean they have very low resistance. So they will probably be much louder than the cubes. It will work well for what u want to do

This would depend on many variables of the building such as size of building, openness, how sound proof, etc. I will say that it is quite loud and I can hear it over the printer in my office which is at least 35 feet from the outer office and front door. I am very pleased with this product.
