How loud is the beep? E.g. decibels?

Beep is very low. We use the coloured indicator lights to find the cat. It works very well. The transponder on the cats collar gives off a low beep and he seems to know we are looking for him and he heads home.

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.

I checked the manual and nothing there about beep adjustment or disabling; probably some consumer safety issues with that. The beep is not very intrusive, less than other models we have had.

It's quite quiet, no problem for next door cubicles, the loudest sound is your feet. The beeps are pretty loud, but only occur when you start and when you change the speed. It does not beep when set up and running.

Reasonably loud. We can still hear it if we are downstairs while it is upstairs if it's quiet in the house. It uses a repeating double beep pattern.

It beeps only once, but I find the beep much too loud! We live in a small condo and I avoid toasting if someone is asleep. The toaster is beautiful and works well. If only we could lower the decibels...

The beep is quite loud and there is not volume control. Having said that, this is a nice little timer that I use a great deal.

If you're just walking at low speed, it's very quiet though not silent, and it does 'beep' on startup and at the end of the cycle. You might be able to disable the beeper, but I haven't tried. The overall sound is not bad. I can talk on the phone while walking and no one knows. If you're walking fast or running, there is a definite 'hum' not to mention the sound of your footfalls. A lot depends on the room too. If you have all hard surfaces (no carpeting or furnishings) then the sound will seem louder.

It beeps 3 times. And yes, it's quite loud. If you don't open the door after the 3 beeps the unit beeps 1 time every minute or so until you open the door.

Not an annoying, loud beep at all. It is a single beep as the toast is rising; it is not continuous or repetitive.

It has 5 beeps, but it is not annoying. There far more things than a micro wave beeping, that are annoying.

It's not crazy loud or anything like that .. it's a series of beeps. Just to let you know though it's very hardy and my son still plays with it daily.he's 4 soon to be 5.

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.

There are no electronic beeps. I have mine in a small bedroom and it's never kept me awake with noise. I love mine.

I don't know the exact decibel level. It makes noise but I have not found it terribly loud. You wouldn't want to use it near when anyone nearby was sleeping.

Yes. On both counts there is a reminder beep and it can be lowered in volume or muted.
