How much noise does this make? Does it require extra cooling?

All there is is a little fan to cool it. I have a smaller one in the living room. Yes, when I'm in the kitchen with the 11 cu ft, I'm aware of the fan being on which assures me it is working. It isn't on often. The sound is not a bit bothersome like the last refrg/combo I had. (not Danby) It was the combo that made it so noisy.

Hi Sandy, Like I said this hardly blew out any cool aire. I wouldn't recommend it all. I didn't use it outdoors, but I can't imagine that it would be any more efficient outside than in. However, I do think that you might not mind the noise as much outdoors as you might indoors.

Depends where you mount it. Ours is in the joists in the basement so it does make more noise than if in an upper floor. Just insert some foam between the fan sides and whatever you are attaching it too. It is a fan and you will hear it.

Not noisy at all. It's very quiet and it does not get hot at all. But it is not in an enclosed space. I recently bought another one.

None, only at 100% fans speed (force set by after market software). You won't hear it under your CPU cooler - be it air or water cooling.

It's more like a very small fan. I'd say it is relatively quiet. It's not a rattling sound or anything. I usually use mine at night so it's ready by morning.

Are you referring to the amount of noise it makes when its running? My unit is in storage for the winter, so I cannot measure for you, but I can attest that it is no louder than the average window unit.

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

I don't find it noisy. Since the enclosure is fanless, the only noise is when the drive is spinning.

It makes a bit of noise as the speed is increased with any fan. I guess it comes down to how quiet is quiet enough. The fan does a good job of cooling things down but does not oscillate.

It is similar to a large box fan on the high setting, which is fairly noisy. Be aware that this unit will suck a lot of air into the room you are trying to cool. If the air coming in is not already fairly cool, this unit won't do much to cool your room. It's kind of like trying to cool a room while leaving another window in the room open. Sealing the room up tight will cause the unit to overheat and cycle on and off. See Hoofhoof's (or my) review.

It does make noise, but to me no more than a fan on low speed. I believe I can hear the fan going on and off due to the temperature, but I do not recall for sure.

It doesn't really cool it down per se, but it moves the air. I like mine and especially like the hum. I'm one of those that needs a little noise to sleep. Lol

As far as noise - It is a very quiet machine - Cooling will be based on size of room... We use in a 600 sqft area and get it down to 66 on a 100 degree day in San Diego...

It is fairly loud. Also I should mention that the cooling capability is disappointing.
