How loud is this mixer?

It's pretty quiet. Even my husband commented on how quiet it is. My handheld mixer is way louder than this stand mixer!

Compared to other mixers, I'd say about the same. Certainly NOT annoying, but it makes some noise. It's not high pitched like a hand mixer.

Our Hamilton Beach is far and away the quietest mixer we've ever owned. We can actually hold a conversation at normal voice levels in our kitchen while it's running---or hear the tv audio in the immediately adjacent den without turning up the volume.

Its the sound of a machine humming ...nothing loud or concerning where a mixer is concerned..

Honestly, it's pretty loud. But I don't have anything else to compare it to, I bought this after spending 5 years without a blender.

It's about as loud as a vacuum. But being on the countertop puts it closer to your ears and kitchens are mostly hard surfaces. I find it uncomfortably loud so I keep a pair of inexpensive ear muffs in the cabinet over my Versa. Otherwise I am very happy with its performance as a smoothie maker.

Many food processors are pretty loud but this one is fairly quiet. I love this machine because it's not so big or heavy and quiet

This microwave is not loud at all. We just love it!! I read the other answer, and we have not had the same problems.

Just curious if you ever found a good mixer with a slow speed? I'm still hunting for one.

I haven't heard an ounce of motor noise come through this, it runs beautifully. It doesn't have an auto-matic cue and it should run through a mixer just fine

i use this mixer for a live setup, its tiny and really simple. there is no master volume, and no eq, just individual volume knobs for each input. if you just need a simple mixer without bells and whistles this should do the trick. a friend of mine uses it in her studio as a monitoring mixer. hope that helps a bit!

I do not think it is that loud. No more than any other. We make two loaves of French bread a week, it does work the machine, but mixes well and the bowl is big enough to keep the dough inside. I tried this machine for the price and I am pleased with it. I use it about every other day with something and I would purchase it again when I wear this one out.

Depends on the source of the noise. I can only say that my rig has no apparent noise caused by the mixer itself. I use Senheiser mics, guitars straight in, drum machines and synths.

Not loud at all. This is part of the reason I bought it as well. Probably quieter than a typical coffee pot.

Yes, it is loud. I was warned by one the reviews before buying it, but bought it anyway. I am happy with the machine overall, but the noise has got the biggest downside.

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 havent noticed any sound out of the ordinary since I bought it. It is not a quiet microwave but I havent noticed it being any louder than my GE Elite microwave that I have at my other house.

It does make noise but not enough to make you yell to the person you're conversing with. If I had to compare it to something I would say an automatic pet feeder dispensing food. It's nowhere near as loud as say a food processor or blender.

Not as loud as a blender, but it's not quiet. I can her it from my room if the door is closed.
