is it noisy or quiet

It depends on whether you are indoors, or out, what the background noise level is, and what you are using the blower for. For a children's bounce house or slide, or other inflatable with high airflow resistance, it's not possible to have a normal-voice conversation within a ten foot radius of the blower. You will have to shout to be heard. I agree with the other posters that the unit is quiet, but only when you are about 25 feet or more away from it. I've reduced the noise by placing a three-sided cardboard box, with a top, over and around it, with one side open on the same side as the blower air intake port.

yes. I guess "noisey" is relative. We are very happy with ours. It is much quieter than the one it replaced.

It is certainly NOT quiet. Great and heavy duty, but not ultra quiet. Sorry! :)

It makes some noise but it's not loud by any means. And once it breaks it's very quiet!

Not very noisy at all. Since I use it outside, what little sound it produces is not a problem.

all depends on how much noise you want, it can be soft or it can be a little noise, it is not a loud fan, even on high

It is quiet to me. Just a light fan noise. It is easy to forget that it is on.

You can hear it when it is on but it's not really noisy. I would call it fairly quiet.

It's not loud for sure. I really like mine. It may have a little noise but it's soothing and honestly I don't notice it.

Very quiet. The only time you will hear it is when it clicks on or clicks off.

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

It is not too noisy. On the other hand I used it in a kitchen where the noise level is higher then in an office. Good luck.
