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

It is not very noisy, but you have to lie down on the floor to put your ankles in those indentations. I am not sure how that would work at work...

It does make some noise but not real loud. I normally use it while watching TV and do not have to adjust the volume. Similar to a stationary bicycle. However you do have to lay down to use it so it may not be well suited to use it at work.

I don't think it is very quiet, making a sort of chugging/humming sound. I'm noise sensitive, so it would bother me if someone was near me while they were using it. If you were in another room, I don't think it could be heard, however.

How close are your coworkers? What is the background noise like in the office? This is not a quiet keyboard, but if you have a reasonable level of white noise, or reasonably sized cubes, it won't be an issue. I love this keyboard and would make my coworkers deal even if I sat right next to one.

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.

It's the quietest model I've found, although you can still hear a slight buzz from it. I don't find it annoying but there is some noise. We have it in our office and it doesn't disturb me while working.

It is not whisper quiet. You will know when it is running. I have it outside of the house and when I am indoor with all windows and doors closed, I can hear it. Nothing too crazy, but can be heard.

It's not a lot of noise. I use a headset for work and I can hear easily without having to turn it off.

It is noisy at first however you become accustomed to it. I kept it on at all times when I was working in a small room.

I don't know about compared to others because it's the only one I've owned, but you can hear it in the other room. I won't use mine while others are still sleeping, but if they are awake, I don't think it's loud enough to be a distraction.

It's fairly quiet. It will not drown out normal conversation, but it's not silent.

The laptop is fairly quiet general. When doing light tasks like email and MS Office work it is very quiet. It isn't silent but I wouldn't consider it loud as normal office/home noise will easily drown it out. When working on more demanding tasks the cooling fan kicks in and the noise is a bit more noticeable. Really at no point have I thought the noise excessive or distracting.

Hi Brenda I use this keyboard at work. I tend to type with strong touch, so it's loud but I don't quite concern about it.(I can't type quiet that's more of my problem than keyboard )I think it not so loud if you type as most average users.Nick

It is not bad. We use it in a room with other ambient noise so we don't notice it at all. In a super quiet room you may hear it.

Definitely louder than conventional keyboards, but not as bad as I was initially afraid it might be. Never heard complaints from people nearby. Your coworkers are more likely to bother you with questions about it. It's quite the conversation piece.

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

It is not quiet per say but it isnt the loudest one I have had... I would not get it if you are trying to not let other hear you, if that makes sence.

It isnt extremely noisy but after a lot of use it starts to get louder. I wouldn't use it at the office because it gives off a whirling sound that some people find annoying. I like to use it at home when I'm watching tv where the only people around who I can bother are my roommates. Try it out though and see if anyone has a problem with it.

Can you tell me how loud the noise is or if it makes any noise at all? I need a really quiet one that on one will be able to hear because I'll be using it at work and don't want to irritate my coworkers with a header or fan noise.
