Is it supposed to be this quiet? I'm thinking there must be something wrong because with it so quiet on the loud setting, what would one need an even quieter setting?

It is not that quiet on loud, but not terribly loud either. You should not have to hold it to your ear on loud, although it is not as loud as many toys (which is why it is more tolerable to everyone else in the room or car who have to hear it over and over!)

Mine is extremely quiet, especially compared with other models I have owned.

It depends on how long you've had it. It might be clogged or need a new filter. If it is new, I think there might be something wrong with it. It shouldn't be that loud.

Mine is quiet. You should not have noise. Turn volume down. See instructions.

We leave it on the low white noise setting, which is like being next to a major waterfall and the volume can be turned up quite high, probably more than you would want. Been using it for over a month now and really like it's size. But you only have the white noise, which I imagine as a waterfall and the fan sounds, which I don't like. Hope that helps.

Mine isn't noisy at all. And mine works awesome and is well worth the price. Just bought mine used do I didn't spend the money a new one would be. Maybe it's clogged ?

The noise level is based on how fast you set the fan. On the lowest setting it is pretty quiet. Even on the highest setting it isn't that loud.

We run ours on low & it's in the far corner of the room, so in ours is very quiet. It depends on what speed you run it on & how far you are from it.

It's quiet on 1 or 2. I haven't tried the other settings yet. I just bought mine. My husband and I are able to talk over it.

Don't know because mine is not noisy. Maybe you should call the owner/manufacturer and ask. He is very helpful and nice to do business with.

On the two highest settings it can be loud.Easy solution is to turn the unit on either the highest setting or Auto about an hour prior to going into the room.At that point you can put it on the first or second settings overnight and it shouldn't disturb you.I leave it on Auto and sometimes it will cycle into high while I'm sleeping but that no longer bothers me.Effective machine the easier breathing makes the noise issue tolerable.

Mine is actually very quiet. I had another model that was extremely noisy, so I am very happy with this model.

"Very loud"? I owned two of these after trying out three different brands/models in the last five years, and both were average noise level of a desktop computer fan. I would say if the noise you're hearing resembles something louder than a desktop computer running, then some thing is up. Good luck!

There are two volume settings on it. Even the lowest setting is not very quiet. I can hear it while the tv is on at a normal volume...If that helps at all.

I hear no such noise in mine, however, I always leave mine in standby mode. I suspect you have a noisy cooling fan.
