How much noise does this make?

It's not too loud. Certainly much quieter than some of the larger HP units in our neighborhood.

not much i would compare it to a push mower. I have used it for about a year and put about 50 gallons of gas through it and no problems.

It's not quiet if that's your question; it has run very well for me and usually starts with first or second pull with half choke; if you set the unit 20 feet away from your work area it will be fine...

Maybe there is some variance? I don't know. Others say it's soft, some say it's loud. I think it's just slightly above average at about 6. If you dislike the sound I can imagine it would be annoying.

It depends on people using it. It is quite enough for me. You can lower the noise by setting the heat under "Hi"

I would say it makes an average vacuum cleaner noise. It does not have a really high (or whiny timbre) I do not currently have any pets...so I can't say for sure.

Depends on how close others are. It does make some noise, but I, personally, do not find it loud.

It makes a little noise but not too much. It is just a low hum in the background

I have heard no noticeable noises because I use it for kids to listen to books on CD. When I tested it I heard nothing unusual. Hope that helped.

I have it in an office waiting area setting. It does not seem to make much noise, its actually pretty quiet. Hope it helps

It does make some noise. It is a very quick whooshing sound, with some gurgling after.

It's pretty loud. I'd compare the sound level to a vaccuum cleaner or a dust buster maybe.

Its not that loud. I hooked it up then unhooked it and went with a different model.

I don't have the equipment to measure it but I can tell you that I don't hear a difference. It can be very loud if I turn up the volume.

It is fairly loud... The tv could drown it out if it was turned up a bit. Totally worth it if you can cover up the noise.

It does make some noise when running but is much quieter than previous units I have owned. I would estimate between 40 and 60 decibels when operating

It's def louder than a portable generator. If you start it up and don't hear it, you better go check on it. Having said that tho, I don't mean to say that it is distractingly noisy, just that you're going to hear it running.

It's a 4" fan, and it isn't completely quiet. It makes a sort of 'white noise' kind of thing. Not very problematic, unless you're looking for total silence. It is definitely not a problem for me, and I have it right next to me on a nightstand.

Not sure. It's pretty loud. I only use it when the dog is barking or jumping so I'm right beside them. I imagine a dog could hear it in an adjoining room..
