Does it quiet down the street noise coming in with the drafts?

I'm not sure, I live on a busy street and no matter what I get street noise, but it does help with drafts.My double pane windows helped more.

Maybe a tiny bit but its only thick tape not a miracle. Get a new heavy double pane window for noise not tape...

Does block the bottom of the door if there is a gap but not sure if it muffles sound on the other side. I'm replacing my hollow core doors with solid doors as I know that will help with decreasing noise.

Sorry, but I don't really know. I plan to try mine for outdoor noises this summer in various locations. It probably will pick up not too distant noises. The times I have used it. It has been inside.

It ofcourse makes noise, but less than a lawn mower. You run it outside and I can hear it in the house, but it doesn't bother us.

No not a real loud fan noise, kinda a low sound with a very good wind flow, very powerful breeze. Don't believe it would drowned out trampling dog noise.

It's not too loud behind a closed door. They sell dampeners also that are rubber and help reduce the noise

Yes, I can hear it just a little when outside the closed door. We usually keep ours on the second setting because that's enough noise for each of our kids.

Yes it does, but it's not very loud in a shop environment. If your using it in a quiet area it's fine.

It does not. However once you put it on, you'll barely hear any outside noise anyway.

Not positive about blocking out road construction, but this little machine can get very loud. I'm betting it would drown out that noise outside.

It depends on how loud you listen to the music in your ears, if it's loud, it should drown out exterior noise pretty well

Does make some noise but not like the Coleman. I too have had Coleman and this makes way less noise.

No, it does not block out street noise when it is turned off, although it may be muffled very slightly. When it is not running, why would you expect that it would block out noise from the street completely? There is still the rest of the window with glass in it - just as before.

Yes. It just sounds like whooshing air, which is a white noise sound to me so it doesn't bother me. It is by no means loud at all. Quiet is relative, but I'm my opinion, yes it is quiet. I hope that helps. Ps. I love this item regardless

It probably will cancel the traffic noise but the beat from the bass from the bar definitely will still vibrate through your apartment. There's little you can do about unwanted vibration except move!

It does help block out a modest amount of noise, but it is not a solution for large noise issues. I hope this helps.

It drowns out loud sounds from down the hall. I can't honestly say about right next door. It does have a loud volume on it.
