Is the alarm decent here?? I mean when it's at its loudest, is the music or the beeping sound, whatever you choose, loud enough or is it quiet??

You can adjust the sound level to your personal preference from soft to loud. I wouldn't say loud is blasting but it is certainly sufficient. I have mine on low because it is irritating and I set it so it beeps twice if anyone opens the door as a personal preference.

I don't think it is. I use the alarm in my classroom, and it reaches over the voices of 30+ students so it is quite loud. Still, I personally do not find it jarring.

The alarm is loud enough for me to hear it in the whole house. Thats what I needed. There is no delay in the Beeping to start, and it does last 10seconds about.

It's really not a very loud beep at all. might bother you if you use it in the bedroom. I keep mine at my desk and keep my phone on it most of the day when it's not on me and in use. I hardly notice it anymore and sometimes even have to replace my phone on the pad because i didn't recall hearing the connection beep.

I use this at night and I am usually asleep when it stops. I don't hear the beep. I hope someone else is able to answer your question. Pam

It beeps when you're pushing the buttons to set it, when it gets to the temperature set and then when it shuts off. You can not adjust to sound level but I don't find it to be too loud. My microwave is louder.

30 seconds to siren the alarm, that is too lonnnggggg. Specially you can hear the beep-beep sound from the MAIN control panel. that is not a good Idea, giving the burlar emough time to break the system before it siren. My solution is to buy another siren and disconnect the speaker from the main control panel. still 30 seconds, but burglar will not hear anything. the bad part is you don't hear anything either when you setting your alarm system. But I just both an on and off switch for the speaker. so I can hear when I do something with the system. I'm not sure if there is any other way to do easier than what I have.

It beeps when you push the buttons and when it's preheated and when it's done. I don't know how you would make the noise lower or frankly why it's such a big deal. It's certainly not a deal breaker for me. I don't mind because it beeps as an alert. You will hear it and isn't that the point? :)

I didn't find it too bad on the decibal level - it was not as loud as an alarm on an alarm clock. I found the vibrating feature more effective at waking my daughter up than the alarm. I know some people complained it was not loud enough, but I really thought it was sufficient for its purpose.

I find it amazingly quiet. It's alarm would wake one, but I think that's the intent!

My alarm gets progressively louder the longer it on. After about 1 minute it's very loud. So I haven't set the loudness.

There is a very loud, high pitched beeping when the set time is reached. You won't miss it, I believe you can also turn it off if you need.

Reasonably loud. We can still hear it if we are downstairs while it is upstairs if it's quiet in the house. It uses a repeating double beep pattern.

It's pretty loud. I can hear it in other rooms as long as there is no real loud back round noise. It beeps for a pretty good while, but not in defitnilty. I was looking for a timer that was close to the one from Pampered Chef. This was as close as I could get. This one though is louder. Hope this helps!

The alarm can be loud but you can adjust it. You can also set different alarm tones. I love it and it works great!!

iIt's the loudest timer I've ever had, though it's not horribly ear-splitting. It rings for about a minute (a beeping noise) unless you turn it off sooner. I don't think you could use it as an alarm clock though.

You can adjust the volume of the alarm. This alarm has 32 different settings... you can go from a ding dong sound to pretty much a song... I stick to the simple ding dong sound on my setting. Maybe I might change it during the holidays to fit the other settings.
