Is this machine quiet? I want to use it in an apartment.

Not if assembled correctly. I found that if the screws are too tight it squeaks, if they're too loose same issue. Though I'm sure the manufacturer wouldn't approve I took out all but 3 screws from the base. I left in the front 2 and 1 on the right - this solved my squeaking issue.

Though it could be because of how we assembled it (possible loose bolts on the neck), mine is a bit loud. Loud squeaking with each step. I don't think it's heard by my neighbors, but my apartments are pretty good on sound blocking (though if they do hear something, it's probably the TV, as I turn that up a little louder to hear it over the elliptical).

It's noisy. It vibrated a lot. I live in an apartment and I didn't want to disturb the neighbors. Now this thing lives in my closet.

This is a question that might be very personal. I consider the sound loud, but certainly not annoying. The machine works very well, so you have to consider if another machine that is quieter will work as well. Hopefully this answered your question.

No this vacuum is at a decent noise level. I mean it's still a vacuum so it's not quiet. But not loud either.

No, this machine is whisper quiet. You'll be surprised at how little noise it makes.

Yes. It is a very quiet machine we have it built-in into our cabinetry in our living room. Nice machine

It is actually pretty quiet. A separate unit made by GE in another room is much noisier. Both units run constantly when in "cool" mode. The fan doesn't shut off unless set to the economy mode. I leave it there, but unfortunately the thermostat is much less sensitive.

It's pretty quiet... just the low hum of the motor. But at high speeds it does vibrate a bit... will slightly shake your cabinets. Also, no matter what they say, this thing is heavy. So forget about easily moving in and out from under your bed. Other than that.. everything works well and it's a nice compact treadmill.

Yes, it is loud. I was warned by one the reviews before buying it, but bought it anyway. I am happy with the machine overall, but the noise has got the biggest downside.

In my opinion, it's not noisy. I think it's more quiet than a window AC. I really like the hum of the motor, and it doesn't bother me at all.

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.

We run ours on low & it's in the far corner of the room, so in ours is very quiet. It depends on what speed you run it on & how far you are from it.

Yes. Very quiet. I love mine. I have had it for about 5 months now and so far it has been worth the money I paid.

I don't think it's loud at all. I've had it running 24/7 in my bedroom since I got it and it's pretty quiet. It's about the same noise as a window a/c or quieter. Hope that helps!

The machine is very quiet and I seriously doubt your neighbors would hear you. They are more likely to hear you walking to the machine than using it. Hope this helps.

Yes. If you just want to keep what goes on in your apartment from being overheard, this machine is perfect, thanks to the varity of sounds generatable, from white noise to random sounds from nature, at a very high volume, if necessary.
