I want to love this fan, but curious about noise level. I HAVE to have a little white noise. Can u hear the fan enough for that?

Absolutely but the screw that secures it in the base of the pole does not secure the top part . waiting for a resolution

I needed a fan that had a little noise to it...this fan has an awesome, relaxing noise to make you fall asleep...

Yes. It's the perfect amount of white noise in my opinion. We've only had it for a few months but it's been an excellent fan.

The noise level is based on how fast you set the fan. On the lowest setting it is pretty quiet. Even on the highest setting it isn't that loud.

I can't imagine a silent room fan that you couldn't hear at all. There will always be noise. This fan is acceptably quiet in my judgement. I have had guests comment on it's low noise and ask where i got it.

I cannot hear the fan running, however, my hearing is not the best. My wife's hearing is good though and she says she doesn't hear it either.

At low or medium, its like a babbling brook... On High, it kicks up quite a bit, but doesn't bother me. I run it on high all day, and turn it to medium for sleeping. As NFB replied, its like white noise, no tonal pitches, just a smooth fan sound.

Very quiet. Can't hear it. There is an option for the fans to be low, medium or high. You can configure to your choosing. Great option.

I have it on the Eco setting to save the bulb so fan noise is not so noticeable. However if it's on the default lighting setting it might be a little loud. I also use a surround sound system so it drowns out the fan sound but if I used the on board sound the fan will be heard. With my setup, I don't hear the fan from about 4-5' away which is about how far all of my seats are so it's not really noticeable.

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.

There is a white noise - depends on what level you put it on. The higher level the noisier it gets. Compared to others I've had in the past, it's pretty quiet.

I would definitely look for quieter fan. Scale of 1-10 . 10 being loudest. This fan would be a 7. You can insulate it and make it quieter. There is some really quiet fans out there. Most people use these in attics or in an insulated box. Google it and there is alot of info out there.

this fan provides white noise. I love this fan but if you want a very quiet fan this would not be the fan for you

Just got mine and it's definitely not quite and it makes even more noise when it turns (and to me that's really unacceptable in the manufacturing). I was going to use it in my office, but will try it in my bedroom instead, since white noise in there won't bother me.

I just put the fan on, maximum. The noise is not loud at all. U can barely notice it. I bought around 2 other fans at the same time this is by far the best fan. It looks better than picture does it justice and its not noisy at all.

Good question, actually the fan is very quiet and doesn't seem to drown out much in the way of sound.

Ok, honestly, this is a very quiet fan. However on low, either with or without the oscillation, it is as quiet as 2 people speaking in a normal voice. For instance my TV at a 50 out of a 100, it matches the sound level. I use 2 of them in my room, when I sleep, and the sound level works for me. My alarm radio is more than loud enough to break through the sounds of both fans. It is not a VERY quiet fan, but quiet enough to sleep with.

If it's on low you can barely hear it, but on high it's kind of loud. It doesn't bother me, but if you're sensitive to noise, you might find it irritating. Great fan though. I've had it for a while and it's working perfect.
