I believe it makes a loud popping sound as it is cooling off. I take mine off the burner I was cooking in and move it to another to cool. It mentions not to put it in water after cooking.

If the bottom of the pan is wet when you heat it up, you are likely to hear some popping noise.

Sometimes there are popping/pinging sounds when metal is heated or cooled rapidly, but I haven't noticed any loud popping sounds with my pan.

I would agree with the others. I did a quick google search and it does sound as though it might have something to do with the layers possibly not fusing together properly. Definitely not normal! I thoroughly enjoy mine, so you may want to give some thought to giving them a second chance and have them replace it. Good luck with whatever you decide! :)

I have been using this (with an induction oven) for than a year now. - Never heard any popping sound.

I have this and I hate the loud popping sound. I have just learned to deal with it until tonight. I loosened the 4 screws that hold the cooling plate on and I have yet to hear a loud bang!

No. There is a fan blowing and air but no snapping sound. I have had This distiller for 2 years and another for 15 before that and never heard an electrical sound. Maybe something fl inside the top motor or is loose. Does anything sound if it is turned upside down or when gently shaken when unplugged? I would get it checked or return it.

No it is not normal. I purchased about 15 of them for our government engineers and no noise related problems with any of them.

Sorry but that does not sound normal. Ive had mine for a while now and it hasnt made one noice yet. Check your warranty, might be a problem in the upcomming future.

Put in microwave oven on HIGH until you hear sound coming from the inside. It'll be a loud pop at 1st, that's normal. 1 minute per speaker & it's done!

We have actually experienced the same issue with the banging sound. It isn't consistent from use to use or even within one session. It doesn't appear to alter the performance, but it is certainly annoying. It isn't clear what the cause is so I'm hoping it isn't causing internal damage to the machine.

the sizzle you hear might just be static but if its loud enough that its distracting its probably a defective unit. a little static is normal with these things. just a little tho..

Mine isn't loud. I would not consider it normal. Contact the seller for an RMA.

I have some similiar experience with the tv. the problem that you are experiencing sounds just like mine. in my case, i suspect the cracking sound is from the left side rear when you are facing the tv. there is a difuser like ventilation outlet on my tv. it sound did like there is excessive amount of heat coming out or something that cause the plastic in that general area to generate a cracking sound. Is this what you are experiencing? have you called samsung and if they provide any resolution to the matter?

Mine makes the same sounds, I am interested to know if more people have this issue....

I have an older one, and this newer one I just got. The newer is certainly louder but it is just a buzz - no clanking, which can't be normal. I agree about trying to adjust that screw. As I recall, I had it on as I adjusted it and could hear the sound change. Good luck.

Mine is noisier than I would expect at times, but nothing that has caused me too much alarm. I thought I heard it click a few times, but so far nothing reproducible or any overheating.

Hard to say, mine made a loud popping sound and quit working the second time I used it.

I do not hear any popping on the Samsung 4661. I never really listen for it or are that close to it to know for sure though. I would imagine that everything is fine with it. Maybe its just the electricity or static electricity you are hearing. Not an expert so maybe someone else can shed some light.

No, I am not experienccing any "popping" sound when sitting in the chair. Are you rocking back and forth? Perhaps the hydraulic is worn or not properly place. Good luck!
