Does anyone else hear a faint, rhythmic clicking noise from this product? Not sure if that's normal or mine's defective.

Is it sitting on or near a metal surface? I'd try sitting the unit on carpet or a bed and listen for the same sound. Induction (this is an inductive charger) is basically a magnetic field that oscillates. It causes waves of magnetic energy that can be absorbed by a coil in your phone and turned into electricity.. But it can also be absorbed by metals and turned into kinetic energy. Perhaps this is causing the unit itself to move and make the noise you hear.

I have never heard a clicking sound from any of my five units. Perhaps you have a defective one...

I didn't notice a loud noise but there is a clicking noise, as Jenny described.

Mine, which I bought about four months ago, does not make any noise. You might consider returning it. That is my only advice.

Mine makes the same sounds, I am interested to know if more people have this issue....

No I have not heard it, mine is silent, though I have yet to use it for long periods. I don't think it's normal, but if it still does what it says on the pack it's ok.If it's not broken don't fix it!

Mine will make an audible clicking noise whenever the system starts up or shuts down. I'm guessing it is something inside completing the circuit allowing the system to run.

Mine does the same thing, small load, clicking noise. I have only done very small loads like you, 3 1/4 cups flour for 1 loaf of bread, & it clicks every time. Very annoying when I have read reviews that some lucky customers have mixers that don't click. Kitchenaid Customer service says "normal under heavy load", so in my opinion, it's NOT normal under a light/small load. Still working with customer service to try to get a unit that doesn't click, the replacement they sent me was worse than the original. Very frustrating.

It made a clicking sound when I tried it. Not sure if you'll have the same experience.

I am not sure this is normal. I have not heard such sounds. I do not however use it all night. I just use it for short periods to warm up a room quickly which it does very well. Hope this was useful. K Mandal

I have a Toshiba NB505 netbook which makes that clicking noise from time to time like Aruna has mentioned. I think it might be a Toshiba thing. It usually happens when the CPU fan calms down, or the computer is sitting idle. I was always scared about it but it never seems to affect usage of the netbook so maybe it's normal.

Hi Hazel -- I wonder if you ever resolved this problem. I have been using this treadmill for a few months now and loving it but today it started making a clunking sound when belt running. I found the user manual online but there is no mention of the problem. You call it 'clicking' I call it 'clunking' but I think we could both be having the same problem, so am wondering if you ever resolved this. Any advice you might have would be much appreciated.

We have actually experienced the same issue with the banging sound. It isn't consistent from use to use or even within one session. It doesn't appear to alter the performance, but it is certainly annoying. It isn't clear what the cause is so I'm hoping it isn't causing internal damage to the machine.

Thank you! That was definitely part of my problem. One last question: when opening, I hear a pleasant ratcheting sound, which I don't hear when closing. Does yours also not make that sound in one direction?

It does make some clicking sound but it's not that noticeable to me. If it is loud enough for you and it is bothersome you should really try to get a replacement as it may be defective and will soon fail.
