Is this clipper normally extremely loud? I've never heard anything this loud before and I'm not sure if it's defective.

Mine isn't noticeably louder than barber shop clippers; if it's very loud, it could be defective, especially if it's heating up a lot or vibrating really hard.

It shouldn't be. I dropped mine once & it buzzed very loud while running. I took the blade off & oiled it - put it back together , & it operated normal.

I find it to be quite loud - when running it sounds like I'm stomping my feet on it. I've been running routinely at gyms for 10+ years and have never had this issue. My model may have a defect though, I don't know.

I have been using my Tassimo for over 3 months and honestly, have not noticed any abnormally loudness in its operation... I did read several reviews that referred to it being noisy, but mine is NOT. I suggest contacting Tassimo with your concerns.

Its pretty loud. I use ot on dogs though, and they tolerate it fine. Also, it gets the job done so quickly it shouldnt be an issue. I would think that unless your neighbors are REALLY sensitive or right on top of you it shouldnt be an issue. It's no louder than say and electric leaf blower.

Pretty quite...not very very quite. Not loud at all compared to other clippers.

I am sensitive to noise and I must say, I have never thought it was "to" loud. I have thick hair so to be honest I do not know how it does on fine hair. But I love my hot tools brush!!!! LOVE IT!!!!

Hmm. That doesn't sound good. Both the top and bottom halves of my clipper are smooth.

Hi. I don't recall that it was all that loud, but it lasted through one solid day of use and that was that. Very cool design and all but the light plastic blade fell off and even though I replaced it exactly as it had been, it was never the same. The wind blew in the opposite direction or not at all, despite the blade spinning. It was good for squirting water on my face during the blazing hot Gettysburg battle reenactments last summer, but I had to throw it away upon returning home. Too bad, because I really liked the concept.

I never noticed before, but I guess it is a good bit louder than some others. I am a life long construction worker and can tell you all about annoying loud noises though and this shower head is definitely not one of them.

pretty loud. It is crushing ice so that has to be taken into account. I'd say normal conversation can't be heard over it if you are running it in the kitchen around an island or something.

I had the same thing happen. Mine are 15 months old, and I've oiled them after (nearly) every use. They just started making a bad buzzing sound, and now they won't cut at all. I think it is the plastic piece that holds the moving blade, as you describe... I will try one more, but if it breaks I may invest in a $120 true professional clipper...

Not quiet at all.. especially with a fresh battery, sounds like a tiny mottor in over speed, kinda like an amplified bee.. not the kind of noise that would wake the neighbors up, but for the one that's actually getting the hair cut, it's pretty loud..

It definitely has that professional feel. It has a higher quality motor than any other clippers I've used in the past. By sound feel and performance I would say it is professional quality

You can certainly hear it, but it's not a slam by any means. I am so so so happy with mine--air-tight, weatherproof, pretty quiet, and all my dogs but for one learned to use it immediately!

I suppose you could, but the noise is probably going to scare it. Unless you are really experienced, I'd advise against it. Get old fashioned clippers...safer and quieter.

Mine isn't loud. I would not consider it normal. Contact the seller for an RMA.

No, it is noisy! It also has quit clipping the hair from my dog, after 3 clippings. I guess the blades wore out (need sharpening). I'm not very happy about it...
