Is it quite? I have a small house &amp; the one I got before was way too loud.

Mine is very quiet and works perfectly. I love it,but,my kitties hate it. I did put a folded paper towel under the motor tho. Good luck. DI

No I don't think it's overly loud. I use it alot and the hum doesn't bother me. In NYC I have more noise with the windows open. I am very happy with this model.

Yes!! It is very loud, and the one I ordered from Amazon didn't even have all of the parts!!

It's definitely loud enough and you can pick a song/tune/sound that will make it louder. I'm quite hard of hearing and chose one that yells and I can hear it throughout the house (3200 sf). I'm very satisfied with my purchase.

It is still fairly loud. The lower setting isn't too loud but if you really want to move things, you'll probably need it on the higher setting and it's noticeably louder.

There is great volume. We actually had to turn it down because it was too loud for us. Not sure about your definition of a large house. We can hear it anywhere upstairs and we can hear it from the basement.

No, should not be that loud (but mine is louder than I would like). Mine reminds me of my old fish tank air pump in loudness. Sounds like yours may be vibrating inside of the unit.

Mine is noisy too, but I have it in a closed utility room. With the utility room door closed, it is not objectionable. Love the pressure boost!

It's not loud at all...honestly I don't even notice it or thought about it till you questioned it. I'd say it's my blow dryer is louder than the blower.

I just returned a Eureka that was LOUD! This is 10x quieter... Depends on what u consider loud.

It is really loud. but if you use it in a big room - like a bedroom - and close the door - not so bad. but if you use it in the bathroom - which is usually small - and close the door, you can hear the noise in like the whole house. but the noise is the only negative

On low, it's not loud at all. Since it's a larger fan, it's a bit quieter than the small diameter ones. On the Hi setting, it may be a little loud for your purposes, but I haven't hunted much so am not sure what's considered loud for you. I still think it's worth a try for you for the price to get two of them...

I don't think it's particularly loud but you might. It's located in our basement. I can hear it when it runs but it's not like it disturbs us or we can't talk over it if u know what I mean. Let me put it this way: the washing machine is way louder. I expect it to get a work out this week with all the snow melt. Glad to have it. Worked like a champ last spring. Good luck.

I do not feel that it is any louder than other models. We have a really small bathroom and it is not an uncomfortable noise level at all.

No, it is not supposed to be quiet, it's supposed to be loud, replace it if you think you need a new one.

Mine is noisy, but kind of a white noise. If I had it in the bedroom, it would not bother me, but I like that type of noise to be able to cover for other random noises from outside. It is most definitely NOT a quiet unit, though.
