No, it doesn't make any noise, my daughter takes it to school and she Haven't mentioned about making any noise.I hope my answer will answer your concern

It's completely quiet it doesn't even make a sound. But i do have a complain. The reason I bought this item was for my daughter. She's 5 years old and was tired of eating sandwiches every morning. The only issue that we really have with this product is that it warm the food at a too hot tempature. So if you put rice the very bottom layer would be burn. That goes for mash potatoes, ravioli even spaghetti. It would mush the spaghetti really bad. The product heats really fast but too hot. I hope my comment helps.

No it doesn't make any noise but the problem is the smell. When you warm food, the smell goes every where and that seems to be annoying to people. You need to warm it up at least 40 min before meal and that is long enough to get complained from upset people in the office.

Yeah mine does the same too after using for about 2 weeks. It's really annoying especially now when I returned to work. It's difficult for me to use because the walls not soundproof (it's a room divided in half with rock sheet) in a small medical office. I fold a small piece of paper towel in it because I noticed that milk goes up there. It kinda helps a bit. It would be quiet and then squeek and then quiet and squeek no matter what I do though. Just a matter of how long it would stay quiet. Can't figure out why.

Yeah, its pretty quiet. Mine's especially quiet lately, I really should get on it again. :)But to answer your question, I don't think it would be an irritant to the people below.

I guess it depends on how quiet your office is. I just asked my coworker who is about 15 feet away and she said that she could barely hear it.

It's not quiet. I used a sound level meter to compare it to a couple other units and it's literally 10-20 times louder. The sound it makes is also particularly annoying.

I don't mind the noise while I am working in my office; however, it may be difficult to sleep with on, especially if you are a "light" sleeper.

Hi, Sorry about my delayed response. I ordered this fridge for a student lounge area, so I'm not sure if the noise it makes in there would be bothersome in an office setting. Dave

I haven't had a squeal. If the floor is uneven it will make a loud noise. I have mine in a large opened area so it doesn't do too much for odor. My second one is in a bedroom,smaller room so it works better.

I agree with Alexander. I use mine in a shared office workspace and I have not received any complaints. It is a tad noisier than a normal keyboard but I wouldn't worry about it, the benefits of using it far out-way any subtle/minor noise annoyance it might/could cause.

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.

Ours is in an office laboratory with other noises as well so I can't really say if it's noisy. The only time I really hear it is when I open the door. Hopefully this helps with your decision.

I use it at work twice a day. It makes a thumping noise which I can hear, but I just had a co-worker step outside my cubicle & she couldn't hear it. I've talked to people on the phone a few times while it's been on & haven't heard any comments. Other than the thumping it's really very quiet.

ours are not really very noisy, I mean I had louder ones before. I guess this one is medium noisy if that makes any sense...we are happy

It's not noisy but not perfectly quiet. Just a low humming sound. I have used it in my bedroom and it did not keep my awake but some people are more sensitive to sounds than others.

Yes, the fan makes some noise. Not unbearable, but not somewhere between a whisper and soft talk.

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.
