I have two of these and they are both making loud noise. I shake them and it stops, but just for a while. Any tips?

I had this same problem. I have two of these humidifier and had them for two years. Both of them started make a grinding sort of noise after two years. I researched online and was ready to buy a new one, but wanted to know if there was any way of fixing it. The answer is yes!!! Check out this video and this could solve the loud noise your humidifier is making: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjRDjOL8nCY. I followed the video and it fixed the noise problem and humidifier works great and quiet!!! Very grateful for this video!

Have you used a deminerization tablet we it your machines? They could have calcium, sodium and such build - up inside that can be reduced and eliminated by putting such an inexpensive product inside. They last a few months per tablet depending on the mineral content of your water.

NO sorry mine does the same thing and I can't seem to get it too stop either! It was great until I moved it to another place and then it just sits now! I really think they should replace it with a better model for us all ! Mine is just a dust magnet now ! :( very sad! Don't buy this one and tell a friend!

Fortunately I've never had that problem but when my unit stopped creating mist I called the company and they promptly sent me a new unit that unit has worked very well for the last two years. Good luck!

Mine made the same sound. I replaced the actuator and it fixed the problem.

Usually this is indicative of low batteries. I use rechargeable Lithium batteries for long performance before needing to replace. If changing the batteries doesn't solve the problem then look for what you have added into the room that might transmit near or in the same frequency as the headphones. But most likely it is weak batteries. If these are in a vehicle the alternator can cause this noise, but you should have seen this the very first time you tried them out.

I ended up replacing mine. It was noisy and would stop on its own. I'd simply replace it!

I am not having this issue; the one I have works fine with no feed back noise. Try exchanging it. Sorry for the delay in responding.

I've had the same problem! I've noted that the cheap knockoffs are noisy, even one I bought retail has some buzz. I guess w these you get what you pay for.

I'd send it back if you can--I've had mine for a while and it oscillates just fine with no noise other than WD40 I wouldn't know what to do to it.

Tried mine last night for the first time, makes so much noise that I had to go back to my old unit. Will try again in a different area and see if that helps

Mine started doing the same thing. I plan to contact the manufacturer and either get a refund or replacement.

That happens to me too. I usually just have to shake it for awhile and bump it around for it to turn on. I'm not sure why it does that!

We had that happen, but we can't remember exactly what the issue was. My wife thinks that she shut them off and turned them back on to correct it. Ours broke within four months. It has been a while since we used them.

I've had that problem myself but it seems sporadic. It can be frustrating . It almost seems it has a warm up period. After I play music for a while , it seems to stop doing this. I'm not the only one saying this . Some of the people who gave reviews on Amazon have this same problem . So it seems not to be a defect. If it is , there are quite a few defective speakers out there.

When mine goes on, it makes a loud pop and then a very loud and noticeable vibrating noise, like from a coil or something. This dies down after several seconds, and then it runs quietly....until the next cycle. It cycles several times an hour. Have had the unit for 11 months, and it has made these noises the whole time. Negligible effect on my electric bill.

no. even after dropping mine there is no such noise, and it still works perfectly. sounds like there is a problem with yours

Sounds like a faulty unit, my last one only lasted a couple of months. It's just a cheap fun thing so I figured I would just replace them as they gave out... Since it came that way though I would say return it for a replacement.

Picked one up today and it does the same thing. They should at least mention it in the manual. I wasn't sure if it was normal. Apparently it is. Thanks for bringing this up and thanks for your follow up.

Ours sometimes makes a loud noise (unsure if it is the same), but stops the noise and starts going with a push. I think it is when the timing is off.
