Does this make noise? I would like to bring one to the office

Dont buy it. It is poorly made. It doesnt stay still, the bike awkwardly moves your knees, in thus pain or discomfort will occur. i never use mines after multiple attempts of finding a balance with it. Its now junk. Please dont buy it save the money and buy a better mini bike from another company.

It's pretty quiet, but I'm not sure how well it would work at the office. I bought it to tuck under my desk, but it slides around all over the wood floor, and the pedals are just high enough that I have to sit at a very awkward angle on my chair.

It doesn't make much noise which is good. However I don't recommend this bike due to the little to no resistance and poor quality.

No not really. It is like riding a stationary bike except you sit in a chair or you can place it on a desk or table and excesize your arms.

I now own the Drive Medical #10273, which has the exact same pedals/handles as this model. Those two plastic parts have no ball bearings, not even any bushings; just a sloppy fitting through-hole to clear the 7/16" dia steel crank that they "spin" relative-to. Consequently the excessive play produces a click-clack noise.

It makes about the same amout of noise as my microwave makes. Since you wouldn't be using it for an extended period of time, unless your office is very small and very quiet, it probably wouldn't bother anyone.

Yes, and it is not noisy but the unit worked for only a very short time and is of poor quality. Company would not help. I would never buy it again.

As best as I can say on a scale from 1-10, I give the noise factor a 2 1/2 to 3. The noise factor is somewhat minimal. I really don't think you will have an office problem, but I do know you will love this heater. It also doubles as a regular fan, which is so cool! I ran it all night for all of last winter and it did not hinder my sleeping at all!! I love this product!! I recommend you get it, I hope this helps.

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 very, very loud. I can't use mine in the office as I had intended because it disturbs others.

First of all, I have a hearing problem - so please take that into consideration. I do not find this machine loud. Will someone coming into your office hear it? Yes. But will they have to talk louder to overcome it, absolutely not. To me, the sound it makes is similar to the someone using a paper shredder, but not nearly as loud. It won't disturb the people in the office next to you, if this is your concern. This machine will relax your feet and I find a 15 minute session gives great foot relief.

It is noisy to distraction. I don't recommend it for cubicle use. You will get complaints from neighbors.

Not that I've noticed. I ordered it for my office and while I don't sit directly nearby, I've never noticed it being noisy. It's a great small fridge.

Actually, no. It's quiet silent. I was surprised to hear it. I thought it would be way more noisy.

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.

I don't think so. It just makes a little clicking sound as it is being peddled. That probably wouldn't be noticed with other office sounds all around

No, its not noisy. but you can hear it, its a soft sound maybe like a small fan, its not an annoying sound.

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

I do not think it is very noisey. In fact I have opened it up to see if it was working because it is so quiet.

Not really, I have it at my desk and it gives off a light pishhh noise but I doubt others would hear it.

It makes a faint sound, more like "thud, thud, thud". I have one on my desk and it's audible. But I barely notice it.
