my neighbors below are complaining about noise when my daughter jumps on her trampoline. Will this mat reduce the noise effectively?

As Mack replied, I'm sure this rubber mat help reduce the thumping noise from the trampoline feet hitting your floor (wood?), but won't totally reduce the noise level. Couldn't be worse, only better.

Yes. It reduces noise significant ly. But I am not sure how the neighbour's below are being affected. They didn't complained. It can depend on the building also.

You can definitely hear it. It's not terribly loud. I put it on an anti slip pad and it cuts the vibrations.

No. A sound barrier, like mass loaded vinyl, would help some but you would still have vibrations.

Ours is pretty quiet. Half the time the kids themselves make more noise than the trampoline.

I truly do not know. I have never used it without the mat. As my treadmill does not have a motor, the only noise is the belt.

The foam sheet is not that thick for your purpose. I would think you would be better to lay a thick carpet padding and a wall-to-wall carpet over the entire floor in the room you wish to decrease the noise from below.

The machine itself is quiet overall. I use it on the 2nd level of my home and the living room is directly below me so I use a mat underneath and it absorbs most of the noise. Ocassionally my kids say they hear it but don't when the TV is on loud enough. I'd suggest placing a treadmill mat underneath if you live in an older apartment. The machine has a small footprint so it can be used in a number of places but may need 2 people to move it around or get it upstairs so hopefully you have an elevator. Good Luck!

Not noisy at all. My daughter is 33lb and jumps so hard on this thing and it is quiet as can be. The only thing is she bounces so hard when holding on to the handlebar the backside of the trampoline flips up each time and slams down. Literally the whole trampoline comes off the floor when she jumps that hard. Otherwise this is one of the best investments (toy wise) we have ever made!

It helps, not total blockage, I have it coming from my utility room to the kitchen it softens the noise. better than nothing. I wish it were made better

It will help. You'd need some serious insulation to block all noise. I'd call this a noise reducer.. You would need a LOT of this to block all noise, not to mention it would have to cover every wall.

Hi, it should take care of most sound and vibration on the main floor but if it's an upper level floor, it probably will not completely get rid of it. Hope this helps!

It isn't really loud but it is loud enough that I can't hear the tv in the other room while I'm on it. Mine is on a wood floor and I have the mat and a piece of cardboard under it. The vibration might cause it to be heard in a room below but tile floors might be better for sound than my wood floors. I did notice that it had more of a squeaking sound when I had it on my carpet. It definitely deoes not do as well on carpet.

I think so,but make sure to have a rubber mat under it,even if you have carpeting.It makes a whirring noise,but it isn't that loud in my opinion.Unfortunately,if you have sensitive neighbors almost any equipment might set them off,but this is pretty quiet compatered to a treadmill or elliptical

I used this treadmill on a carpet with a treadmill map beneath it. The noise I mentioned in my review was quite loud in the house if I did not shut the door. Once I shut the door, the noise was not that bad. I am not sure if the downstairs will hear the vibration if the floor is wooden floor.

The mat will not reduce the feedback you are experiencing. I suggest you call a professional any any quality audio store.to resolve your feedback issue.

Hi, in my experience, this is very basic sound proofing. So can't expect too much. But if you stick them all over the room including ceiling, and rug on floor, it dose help reduce the volume.
