my treadmill now is very noisy. I have to turn the volume on my TV to over 45 to hear it. Is this quieter?

Yes, the TR 3000i is very quiet. Best treadmill we have ever owned. Our previous treadmill was a smooth fitness model and it broke after 5 years.

Yes, this treadmill is quiet. We have only had it for about a month, but it is eerily quiet.

I think it's quiet- my husband can't hear it when I'm running in the other bedroom. I do wear headphones most of the time, though. On the weekends I use the built in speakers and they're great.

My wife and I put at minimum 20 miles a week on our's - at first it was near silent, after about 40 hours of breakin the motor starts to get a little more noticeable above 6 mph, and conversationally loud at +7.5 mph. As long as you lube it regularly, it will remain quiet enough to keep from being distracting. Of note, we have owned ours for 4 months and are very satisfied with it.

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.

My LifeSpan Fitness TR3000i Folding Treadmill is so quiet I only turn my TV volume to 10. Also my wife and I cannot hear each other walking on it from the next room. It is also very smooth and a pleasure to walk on. The console is easy to read and the controls are very easy to adjust.Hope this helps. I looked at many reviews before I purchased it and I am very satisfied with my decision.Anderson

very quiet. Have you tried performing the recommended lubrication per the instructions in the manual?

It would depend how you use it but it is typically more quiet than a regular treadmill.

No, it doesn't make much noise. The unit is heavy enough to minimize vibration to the floor. My wife easily watches TV in the same room when I'm using it.

Well, that's a little hard for me to answer. Our treadmill is already on a carpeted floor. I didn't seem to notice much difference in sound after. Ik got the mat to protect the carpet.

It is still fairly loud. The lower setting isn't too loud but if you really want to move things, you'll probably need it on the higher setting and it's noticeably louder.

Not loud or noisy at all, just the regular treadmill noise. My wife has been using it for a while now and she loves it

It is not silent but it is much less noisy then the unit it replaced. I can sleep with it near my nightstand so noise wasn't a factor for me. There are two noise levels, with the compressor on and when the fan is on alone. If you are very noise sensitive this may be an issue for you.

After a while, I had some noise from behind. The service company fixed that with a bit grease at the two little rolls. This treadmill is amazing and very quiet now. I would buy it again. Btw. the service from LifeSpan is amazing!

It actually has a noticeable humm. I usually turn it on at night so it doesn't require you to turn up the tv. However, I keep it running in my room all the time because I like it. I would compare the sound to a big floor fan. If not trying to hear tv or radio it probably will not bother you at all.

Mine is on the 2nd floor, in fact it is in an area that is open to the downstairs. No noise and no pounding like a treadmill. The only noise is from the TV that I watch while doing it. As for damage the floors, I do have carpet upstairs but I did purchase a mat for it to go on. Once in place it certainly doesn't move while you are doing the exercises.

The noise is acceptable to me. We have a tv in our workout room and can easily listen to programs without adjusting the volume up significantly.

When I'm using the treadmill, the only sounds that I hear is the conveyer belt moving. It's not a loud sound. I guess the best way to describe it is that it has a rubbing sound. I don't think it's loud. There are no thumping sounds, from what I can tell, but I'm on the machine. I don't know if anyone else hears anything. I don't. Overall, it's a very quiet machine. I hope this helps.

Running on any treadmill is noisy, mostly due to the pounding of the person's weight while running on any body's ceiling. That treadmill it self is very quiet. But remember, is manual, is harder to run on it than an electric one, and the inclination cant be changed, but the resistance can. I think if you don't need to run particularly, is of great assistance to sweat lots by walking fast on it. I hope I answered your question.

Mine isn't loud, I was able to leave it running in the kitchen and hear the tv in that room without turning it up.

Its loud enough for me to sleep... but I'm not sure I'd label it as 'Very Loud'. We can watch tv with it on and only have to turn in up a couple more notches if that tells you anything.

No. It is very quiet. I know what you're talking about (how annoying is that clanking sound all day???). This has been the best pedometer I've ever owned. I'm very pleased with it.

I don't think it's particularly loud but you might. It's located in our basement. I can hear it when it runs but it's not like it disturbs us or we can't talk over it if u know what I mean. Let me put it this way: the washing machine is way louder. I expect it to get a work out this week with all the snow melt. Glad to have it. Worked like a champ last spring. Good luck.
