Does the kettle make any noises when it is heating or has finished heating the water?

As stated elsewhere, the 17 oz kettle is very quiet, making a small click when it is ready. If you have any interest in it, the larger kettle makes a chirping sound when the water is ready.

Yes, it makes a modest noise, similar to boiling water in an ordinary saucepan on an electric range. The noise is not at all objectionable in my opinion. Also, a few seconds after the water comes to a rolling boil there is an audible "click" when the thermostat cuts off the heating element. I use my kettle several times each week to make hot tea. I find it very handy and recommend it without reservation

You can hear a small noise of the heating, nothing intrusive, and after the water has boiled, you hear a little click to indicate the kettle has turned off. These noises are nothing like the whistle of a regular tea kettle. I keep 2 kettles, one at home and one at work, and both are rather quiet.

It does make a "rushing" sound while it is heating. It has an audible "click" when it shuts off (which is automatic) and you can hear the water gurgle when it reaches boiling, but all in all, it is not terribly loud.

The only sound you hear is that of the water boiling. In other words, the sound you hear is not from the kettle but from the water when it has reached it's boiling point. You may hear a slight click indicating the kettle has shut off, but these are the only sounds I've heard while using this kettle.

It is not noisy in itself but the water does make boiling sounds after a while. Keeping the lid on, its pretty quiet.

No. At the end of the brewing cycle it does that sound. But after that it is completely quiet.

It's incredibly quiet. You get a really tasteful 'bong' when it's turned on. Then it's nearly silent as it heats the water, with a set of LEDs in the base that show the temperature of the water. And then a tasteful 'bong' when it reaches the desired temp. This is by far the greatest kettle we've ever owned - and we've had a lot of electric kettles.

No. After reaching the boiling point it automaticslly switches off as do all the electric kettles I have experienced.

The only noise comes out of it is of the water boiling. The kettle itself has no noise.

Yes there is a humming noise that is most likely the fan that comes on when the hot water faucet is turned on, may stay on a few seconds after it's off.

Yes. Once the water boils - the kettle shuts itself off. It works great - is fast and really convenient. Great buy!

Hi - This kettle does not make the traditional whistle sound. Once the water starts boiling you will hear (for about 10 seconds) the boiling sound till it automatically shuts off once the water has uniformly boiled completely.

I guess that depends on the noise. When the steam releases, you hear that. It does take a few minutes for the water to heat. Then press and get lots of steam. You might be hearing the water begin to boil?

No. It does not whistle. It's just a great big stainless steel kettle. Works very well.

We have owned one for a couple of months and do not hear any sound to speak of from the water heater itself. We do seem to notice that when water is flowing anywhere in the house we notice the eater flow sounds more than we did with the water heater tank system we replaced. Not sure why that happens.

Less noise than a standard microwave oven or oven-top tea kettle, but more noise than a pot of boiling water on the stove. The noise only happens when it's heating up.

It does not beep when done. Brews very quickly and you can hear it brewing and will know when it is done as it will go silent. Will stay heating for two hours and then shut off. Love this machine!

This kettle doesn't make any alert sound when it reaches the programmed temperature.

You can hear the sound of the boiling water, but I have a Nesspreso machine next to it which is much louder. It never bordered me or my family and I use it many times during the day and night(I work nights).

No--it does not whistle. The only sound it makes is the click of the automatic shut-off when it has boiled--and you also hear that the sound of boiling has stopped.
