I recently purchased one of these and am looking for feedback on how loud it should be? Mine seems louder than expected.It's not very loud while just free spinning, but once I actually start buffing with it and there is some resistance, it really gets loud. I'm not sure if it's loud or just a higher pitched noise that hurts my ears. Anyways--I want to get it replaced if something is wrong with it but I'm not sure if this is normal or not.

I dont recall it getting louder when you put pressure on it. I would get it replaced. Sounds like a bad bearing to me.

they do make a wining sound when using them but i would not say its loud. email dewalt and see if there is a repair center close to you and have them look at it. do before the warranty goes off.

It should get quitter with usage--I have around 8 hrs on mine and it is quitter than any other I have owned. Everything is tight when you first start using it. If it gets louder, then replace it.

I forget which unit this one is. If it is the larger of the two, you can adjust how fast it spins -which equates to how loud it gets. The larger one, set on a higher setting, would give a decent amount of white noise.

Just using the stand with a bag is noisy. I put 25lb weights on each of the 3 pegs (2 front, 1 rear), and even with the additional 75lbs. it moves around a fair amount of I hit hard. I would think your downstairs neighbors would be more likely to hear the scraping it makes as it moves than it bouncing or anything of that nature. Although I live in a house, my house is close to my neighbor's. Out of courtesy, I do my workouts during "normal" hours (after 7 am, before 10 pm). That should lessen most complaints, I would think. I will add the the stand has seen almost daily use since I purchased it about 6 months ago and hasn't had a single problem. Just using the stand with a bag is noisy.

We bought one in November. The flywheel is fine and it rides ok. The wheels which slide on the back right side make a hissing noise but that's the only negative. The resistance is fantastic as is the the pre-programmed rides. Hope this help. I would buy it again if that helps

I've never heard a loud whirring with my unit. The only time the disc makes noise is when it is first loading. If it is a home made DVD, the player makes lots of "searching" noises, but when it finally starts to play, it is very quiet. I'd say your friend has a defective unit.

We are using it in a salon atmosphere where blow dryers are going throughout the day, so I had not noticed if there was much "noise" coming from the unit. Also, we keep it in the back of the salon where it is coolest in the winter. It doesn't appear to be loud but yes, I can hear it blowing when I am close by. Being I'm not in a quiet environment I'm not sure this answer is going to be much help. Have a nice day.

Mine only makes a quick, not too loud of a noise, right as it turns on... before it starts to grind. It only lasts a fraction of a second. I would be concerned if you have a continuing noise. I would exchange it, rather than worry every time you use it.

This model has whisper wheels so it's pretty quiet. I have no experience with the other model you're talking about, but I can say we've enjoyed this one, use it daily, and haven't had any complaints. We love that it's quiet.

I just got online to check review of the Little Mommy real loving doll. My daughter received this doll for Christmas and it makes the LOUDEST noises when the doll moves, especially when she moves her arms down, it sounds like it is a very loud grinding noise, it doesn't sounds normal. she talks fine, but am wondering if it is defective b/c it is so loud/robotic/grinding when she moves.

My brand new one is extremely noisy as well. The sounds do not come from the belt passing along the treadmill or from my feet hitting the treadmill. There are loud rattles and squeaks that come from the area of the motor. Also, the entire treadmill deck bounces up and down a little when I run on it. So far, I am pretty unhappy with this expensive purchase.

I found it quite noisy but I'm not sure if that is indicative of the product itself or just an issue with the swing I purchased. I ended up returning the swing b/c for some reason it would slow down and stop rocking and then speed back up and during that transition it was so loud it woke up my newborn.

I think there may be a problem with your unit. I've had one of these since before Christmas, anyway, and it makes a kind of low hum when I use it, but no creaks. I weight about 210lb, so maybe I squash the creaks out of it, but I think you should get Rodeo to send you a replacement.

FROM HIGH TO SUPERSONICHave you talked to the seller? Sounds like it's defective....Just send it back. I bought one for my wife, but returned it. Even on the lowest setting the vibration was too drastic for her; so I tried it. Lets just say I'm 6 feet tall and weigh 275 lbs, and it was uncomfortable for me. Who knows, if you get it to work it may be just right for you.

Mine was loud at first but used a little workout on it and it calmed down with no noises after a while.

That doesn't sound good, it sounds like a part is loose in the motor, I would personally return it. I bought 2 and they hummed and purred, there was no grinding noise at all. Hope this helps.

I would also suspect defective. I can't remember anything about the setup that I would suspect could lead to squeaking. If anything, I think improper set up would lead to an unbalanced swing or poor range of motion but not squeaking. Have you tried to turn the motor on without the other parts attached? If it still makes the sound that would help confirm a defective motor.
