What does the alarm sound like? Beep? Buzzer? etc Is the alarm loud?

Bought it as a gift and it worked for only a month. Sorry do not know the sound.

No beeping. Also does not seem flimsy. It took awhile for me to figure out how to aim the water to fill it because the opening is really thin. At first I used a funnel, but now I can fill it perfectly without a funnel.

They do make a very minor click sound. I wouldn't call it loud by any means, but if you're a very light sleeper it could be a problem. I do like that you can set the maximum volume of the alarm and that it starts quiet and works up to the max volume you have programmed. I've never had a clock that does that.

No. I beeps at the end of the time only. BTW, I discovered that it also can act as a stopwatch (i.e., counting up). I don't think there's any alarm in that mode, although I haven't let it go to 99+ minutes to see. (grin)

You can adjust the volume of the alarm. This alarm has 32 different settings... you can go from a ding dong sound to pretty much a song... I stick to the simple ding dong sound on my setting. Maybe I might change it during the holidays to fit the other settings.

The beep is loud enough to be heard in the next room, but I wouldn't consider it excessive - and I am very noise-averse. (I should have thought to ask that question before I bought it!) I don't use it for anything that produces a reminder beep; I'm not even sure it HAS a reminder beep.

It is loud but not so you can hear it on a different floor. If it was that loud I would not want it. When I go to an area that is far away I TAKE IT WITH ME TO THAT AREA. The unit is light so there is no problem. It beeps for about 30 seconds before it shuts off.

It is very LOUD when set to the loud setting. I wear hearing aids and cannot hear the alarm when it's set to the low setting, And that's with my hearing aids! It's a shrill, loud sound.

it only beeps. You need to know what you set the alarm for. Perhaps your phone might be a better way to set alarms with specific information attached?

The alert is a beep similar to a cell phone's. Assuming normal hearing, it can be heard throughout an average house. The alarm is a loud screech and can be heard throughout an average neighborhood.

It's pretty loud. I can hear it in other rooms as long as there is no real loud back round noise. It beeps for a pretty good while, but not in defitnilty. I was looking for a timer that was close to the one from Pampered Chef. This was as close as I could get. This one though is louder. Hope this helps!

It's a pleasing "beep" sound... I don't know how else to describe it. It's also loud enough to hear without being overpowering...

Yes, it continues to beep for 60 seconds after it goes off. As I said in my review I would not buy this again because it has such a short alarm time. If you step outside or go to the garage for something you may not realize it has gone off for several minutes. The other one I have rings for five minutes and also has a countdown screen which continues to count down so you'll know how long ago it went off. Just my thoughts.

Hi. I have this product. There is no "buzzer" sound option. The sounds are similar to an old cell phone ring tones. The sound I use for my own bell is similar to when entering a convenient store. I hope this was a helpful description.

No. It doesn't beep when it turns on or off. Just saw someone else's answer. If it does beep it isn't very loud...I have never heard it.

Not loud at all. I am a very light sleeper and it hasn't disturbed me yet. Very happy with it.

We use the beep setting...the alarm is in the kitchen and my husband is downstairs in rec room. He can hear beeping...and our dog now runs because she gets fed when the beeper goes off! It works very well.
