How quiet are we talking here? Does it buzz, lightly hum, or what? i have a jumpy kitty that hates loud clippers.

I think a soft buzz is a good discription of the noise level the clippers make.

Definetly a hum instead of a buzz. My poodles hate it when I try to trim their faces with any other clipper.

I love this clipper. I have six dogs , maltese, yorkies and cocker so I do a lot of grooming. Its quiet and light. Just take care not to drop it. The case will break easily.

Soft buzzing. I bought these for my cat and she does fine- not scared of these clippers.

Lightly hum is a great description of the sound.i have had several clippers and these are the quietest I have ever used.

The only other experience that I've had is with Wahl clippers. The Andis clippers were about the same as far as noise level. I didn't feel that they were LOUDER! Of course they are not the top notch clippers that you pay, a very good price, for and get the "quite" level. I've really enjoyed the Andis clippers and I found them to work very well for the price that I invested into them. I hope this helps!

Mine does not make noise. If you put it against your ear there is a faint buzz. But nothing to be alarmed about or a nuisance to use.

Yes, this clipper is very quiet. It slides in a smooth motion like a pair of scissors. There is no "clipping" sound.

They aren't very loud I have had louder ones.. I have a problem getting through my cats fur with the blade that came with it..I think with a better blade it would go right through my cat's fur. My cat is part Siberian and she is extremely furry. Her fur gets matted on her backside there I have issue with the blade.. I would suggest getting a better blade ,but the unit itself seems to be good.. Hope this helps

Its not that loud. It's sort of the same buzz that an electric shaver. Hope this helps! =)

Not loud just a buzz. I used it at night in my room w/ my husband sleeping. Of course he would sleep through anything! But I don't think it's loud.

Not overly loud. My cats think it's scary, but they're freakishly sensitive!

Yep--I have two, and they make buzzing noises. I recently rearranged my furniture, so it might just be that I'm sitting closer to the cat beds and noticing the noise now. At any rate, they for sure buzz now.

I think they are relatively quiet. I don't have much to compare it with but it's definitely not terrifying. My dog doesn't mind the buzz at all and neither do i

not loud but not a good pick for clipping. the larger one's blade broke off some teeth amd as you may know is ineffective now. the small one did not cut properly from the beginning. I would reccommend the Yellow Dog cordless trimmer, I am on my 3rd one because you cannot change ot sharpen the blade, but for 20.00 bucks why not replace as needed. I use them around the ears and faces of my 2 mini schnauzers. Good Luck

Pretty quite...not very very quite. Not loud at all compared to other clippers.

The tag on the pets collar can not be set to mute, however it is a very faint high pitched beep that you can only hear within about 15 feet or so if all is quiet. It doesn't bother my cat at all and I believe it might even help because when they hear they know we are looking for her to come and then she gets fed. She is very big on the food reward system. If you wanted to acclimate your cat to the sound I would put it by her bowl and activate it when you feed her for a few days so the sound has a positive association with it. The hand held locator is how you will find your pets location anyhow and not really through the beeping or light. It is a very useful product.

I don't know because I haven't tried. It is fairly gently but does vibrate a little and makes a low noise. It would probably depend upon your cat and its temperament. Also, I am not sure if the fine hair of a cat might clog up the clipper. I would check with a local cat groomer to get an opinion.

Ours makes a small cyclic hum. You can hear it. It doesn't bother me, but everyone has different tolerances.

Hey Julie49. This is a great instrument. It is almost silent. It wouldn't be all that disturbing "in the same room." I would say there is a low "buzz."David

No, not loud at all. Just a low level vacuum noise. Your poor doggy! :( MY cat always hides whenever I vacuum!
