is there supposed to be a rattling sound coming from the hydroflask? it sounds like there is a loose piece of metal between the double wall...

I have the same problem. There's a small piece of something (may not be metal). I'm returning it.

No, that's definitely a problem & may end up compromising the vacuum & losing insulation.

Def not. I have two of these, and neither of them make any type of rattling sound.

I haven't had this issue. My guess would be no. Mine is almost 3 months old and it works great, no noise.

Mine makes a noise that I was initially concerned about but after reading JcrusR2's answer I can verify that in my case, he is right (The only thing that might be loose is the plastic On Button. The inside should be solid.) Try shaking it and checking to see if the noise is coming from the power button. You can also jiggle the button lightly with your finger and produce the same sound.

No, never had that problem. Sounds like you may need to send it back. Mines is not noisy. The fan is in the lid, but I have not noticed a real noticeable vibration and certainly it does not stop with the simple press on one side. Amazon has a very good customer service. Give them a call.

I just got mine a couple weeks ago and have used it 3 times. I do see and hear the steam when using it, it sounds like something might be wrong with yours.

My wife and I have a B60 and I bought a B40 for my mother. The B40 is much noisier than our B60. The pump on the inside of the units are vibrator diaphragm pumps and are going to make noise to some degree. Try making sure that your water reservoir is fully seated in the base and then try removing the reservoir cover while brewing; we found that the vibration of the pump is transmitted to the cover and it sounds like the unit is going to come apart.

Thank you! That was definitely part of my problem. One last question: when opening, I hear a pleasant ratcheting sound, which I don't hear when closing. Does yours not make that sound

I haven't had any such issue. The only things I can think of are the obvious, like checking to make sure the stand is on a flat surface, shimming the feet as needed, trying to hear exactly where the rattling sound is coming from.

I haven't encountered this problem. The problem I have occasionally is, at some time after installation I find air has somehow gotten into the line and causes a terrible rattle and noise. I have been able to get rid of the problem by disconnecting and reinstalling the filters. Sorry this doesn't answer you question. Does it always happen? Maybe there is something floating around that blocks the flow when you open turn it on too fast.

Have you tried filling it over the max level? Mine always made some noise, but as long as it was full it was more quiet. I'm sure that you already tried cleaning it and everything else that I would think of... Good luck!

Nope, what we hear is the water filling and the flap rising but it isnt loud, screeching, or scraping. You may need to exchange your unit. There may be a defect with that particular one. Good Luck!

Haven't noticed any clicking from mine, but then I'm not always in the particular room in which we use it. Is it like an electrical snapping sound, or more like a trickling water sound?

Sounds like it is broken. Send it back. You should at least see steam. It got the bottles to hot for me and I don't have time for that with a crying baby. Send it back.

I've had two that I ordered recently and neither of them sounded like they had loose parts. Both have worked flawlessly. I'd send it back for a new one.

Hate to say sounds like something wrong. I get the idea. Mine isn't that loud, but there is like an air noise, but doesn't seem to be a bad noise. Or hum, like some I've heard. Mine is more just the "perk" noise.Did you buy it from here. How often used? I'd contact Hamilton beach and ask. Since Amazon is merely the holder, Beach should know more the personality of unit.

There is a propeller/screw type element at the end of the curved pipe - pull that pipe and element up and off the unit... clear any debris in there and make sure that the propeller/screw type element is seated nice and tight and straight and not fouled with any hair or other such stuffs... then re-seat the components. That should stop any rattling... What kind of noise are you hearing? It's not absolutely quiet, there is a bit of splashing that you can hear.

It should not be, did you mount it securely? is it vibrating the window that isnt fully secured properly with the foam insulation to deaden noise and insulate against heat getting in? Has it been noisy since day one? what sort of noise is it? rattling is likely window vibration due to not being securely mounted, if its not that, its possibly a bad part in the blower. if its a squealing its definitely a bad part. if its metalic grinding its a bearing. we need more info.

I have had the biocube 14 running in my living room for almost 2 years now and I don't think i have ever noticed the sound of the fan. It is possible yours is rattling in place or you have a faulty fan? If it is actually loud I would contact the manufacturer.
