I would compare the blower to a vacuum cleaner, it's pretty loud. And yes, it must be on, if you turn it off the bouncy deflates right away. This is a great product! I am VERY happy :)

The bounce house is GREAT! However the blower indoors is pretty loud. About as loud or even louder then a vacume cleaner. You do have to have the blower going at all times. Even with the noise we still use the bounce house inside and also outside. It really is a great bounce house especially for the price. Honestly it is just as good as the ones you rent for party, just a smaller version. I would 100% recommend this bounce house! My son was 2 when we bought this, he is almost 3 now and he still loves it. Hope this helps.

Having been surrounded by loud dryers at show I have found this one to be fairly quiet. I have read many reviews about it being loud but compared to many, many others I have been around it is NOT loud. My Golden actually likes this better than my personal hairdryer. Hope that helps. I really have been impressed with the quality of this little dryer.

It's not terribly loud. My shop vac is noisier. Most all of the tools it would be used with are going to be noisier. Good hearing protection should be used regardless of what dust collector is used I have owned mine for two years now and it is performing very well. Much less dust than my previous unit which is why I upgraded. It handles a couple tools at the same time very well. I recommend it. Might cost a bit more than others but worth it.

It's not noisy at all. You can just barely hear the blower kick on, but any room noise at all is minimal.

It is pretty loud and we couldn't find a way to shut sound off. FUN train for outside or separate room from conversation! (-: My Grandson loves it but can't play with it while baby sister is asleep!

The blower makes noise but it's not bad, just like any motor... It has to stay on or else it will deflate... It is definitely fun for the kids. I got this for my daughter to have on her 3rd birthday and she loved it!!! We still turn it on once in a while for her...

It can become noisy is you don't follow the cleaning instructions. Also I'd suggest to set their room up and tunr this on prior to them going to bed. Any noise that it does put out is really just white noise; we feel it helps our kids sleep.

It's about the same as a regular dryer. Not any louder than a regular dryer.

Its not nearly as loud as my shop vac nor nearly as powerful as a regular leaf blower. It's something to dry my motorcycle with or quickly blow around doors or clean off the shop floor. Its not too loud and its not a replacement for a real leaf blower. Its a quick no cord alternative for short duration jobs.

It's loud. The kids don't mind... And it isn't to horrible once it's fully inflated.... Sounds like a hair dryer on a low setting.

This one has no volume control. However, it has 2 switches, one for the "suction" and one for the beads spinning so they can be run together or separately. Overall, I would say it is not very loud compared to other toy vacuums, especially if you only run the bead cyclone part. For comparison, I'd say it's pretty similar to running an electric mixer. Hope this helps.

We use it in an enclosed basement and it is certainly tolerable for the amount of time it is on. Rough comparison I would say it is about as loud as a vacuum cleaner or a noisy hair dryer.

Hello, Yes, the blower has to run constantly, but its not that loud. Its a great bouncer. My 3 year old loves it.

I also bought this for my wife 2 years ago when our son was a infant. To avoid waking him up in the morning, I bought her this. It's not whisper quiet but it is substantially more quiet than her other two blow dryers. Especially at any distance. I'm commenting now because she accidentally broke it and now went back to using her old one and man is it loud... So now I am back looking for a replacement and seeing if this is still the best option.

This is totally subjective, obviously. :-) We don't mind it, but we live in a big house with no neighbors, so we're not that sensitive to noise. It is not really loud IMHO, and the noise isn't really obnoxious (like a fire engine, etc.). I would say if you live in a small space like an apartment with thin walls you might think twice, or if you are the type of family that asks your kids to use their "inside voices" a lot. I think the only time it would get annoying is in the very beginning if your child just won't put it down and plays with it constantly. But since that would likely be short lived anyway, meh. It's a toy that makes noise, but I've never been bugged by it and my son usually plays with it inside.

It can get pretty loud. We turn it up higher during the day when our 6 year old and dogs are running around the house and lower when we are all asleep at night. Either way, you can hear the sound machine on the baby monitor and I would definitely say it is louder than a high powered fan.
