Anyone have one with quite a loud grinding noise? Replaced one which kept stopping &amp; got one a lot louder, wondering if I exchange again

Does it just do it at first? Mine always makes a loud grinding noise until it actually starts swinging good.

Yeah, that sucks. I figured it out after I couldn't return them anymore.I just gave them away and bought a much more expensive one to replace them.I got a Crown 28M to replace my two Pyles. It has been on for about 4 months now, and never hummed. I needed an always on system for PA work.

I have this same printer, normal operation is very quiet, so you have a absolute problem. I've experienced some major plastic gear grinding noises that are very loud. What I found the solution to be was to open the rear paper jam panel and slam it shut a couple times. Drop the front panel down and just under the toner cartridges you'll see a small handle, bottom dead center. This pulls out the entire assembly holding all the toner packs in. Pull it out just a couple inches and slam it back in a couple times, then close the front door and carefully look at the top of the door making sure its even all the way across the top, if its off just slightly you don;t have that other part that holds all the toner pushed all the way in properly. Also pull the paper tray out and take extra care to make sure you're getting it pushed in properly. I don;t know which one of those things solved the problem, but by doing all of the above I no longer have the noise issue (severe noise at that) and now it prints and runs smooth and quiet.

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.

I have not experienced this problem either. You may want to swap it out...I really enjoy mine. It's worth the effort to get one that is working properly.

Sorry, seems like you got the lemon in otherwise great appliance. I have use it everyday and have not experienced this kind of problem. I set the timer at night and wake up to the aroma of coffee wafting through my apartment. The only noise it makes is the burr of the grinder. I suggest you return your unit as defective and request an exchange. Companies are usually very good about this since they don't want to lose customers due to bad publicity.

Mine isn't noisy at all. And mine works awesome and is well worth the price. Just bought mine used do I didn't spend the money a new one would be. Maybe it's clogged ?

Mine started making a high pitched, loud, random squeak after about a year- just beyond warranty of course. I've written the company but no response yet- I've changed the filters and kept the unit really clean- very frustrating...

I found out when using that the "quick" pushes are not as quick as one would think.I found out from someone who had it , that you push and hold a little once or twice and then the next push, you hear like a grinding sound.That is what you want to hear. I was pressing like 8times quickly(quickly as recomm)and hardly any fizz, it wasn't until hearing the grinding sound

I have owned my grinder since January 2014. I use it twice every day, at least 3 times a day on weekends. I have had no problems.Yours may be defective. Definitely call customer service and give them the opportunity to make it right.

Picked one up today and it does the same thing. They should at least mention it in the manual. I wasn't sure if it was normal. Apparently it is. Thanks for bringing this up and thanks for your follow up.

I have the larger model. I have cooked White and GABA brown on this. It is not very loud. There is a low hum while it is cooking/prepping from the internal fan, which sounds like my laptop when it isn't working very hard.If yours sounds like a grinding noise I would suspect that either something is in your fan causing it to grind, or you otherwise have a faulty fan. I don't think there are other components in there which are capable of making loud noises. Unless there is some process of induction cooking for which I am unaware that might cause this.

Contact the company for a replacement, sounds like a defect. I never had that issue with mine.

Ditto...the same happened to me. I had mine replaced once. I ended up giving the grinder away once I found out that this grinder can't grind fine enough for my espresso machine. The water just blasted thru the portafilter too fast even when I had grind on finest setting.

Is it still under warranty? Mine is too loud most of the time. Sounds like the unit is faulty.

Mine is noisy too, a high pitch whirring sound. I wondered if mine was broken as well but it has great suction so I think it's suppose to sound like that :)

Kind of, I was hoping..the grind is really good but the static can drive you crazy. If you find something that works, let me know. You really need to clean it out with each use.
