Is this quiet or does it sound like paper

Very quiet due to the terrycloth covering. These are not the typical pillow protectors you find at Walmart or Target. You know, the ones that seem like they are made of Tyvek house wrap. Definitely worth the money.

Not like paper at all...or plastic either. You don't feel the 'protection' at all. They are very comfortable and easy to wash and dry. I love mine.

It is by no means quiet. On a scale of 1 to 10 with 1 being no noise and 10 being lightly tapping a pen on a desk, I'd give it a 7.

not quiet sure but it is very thin, if i had a second chance id go with thicker one.

no - its very quiet but ours literally came apart in a month - we still use it but the plastic screw that holds the back wheels on broke so that whole side falls off and there is no fix for it!

It sounds more like a fan. I use it in my office and it's pretty quiet. It's a little louder on high speed. Hope this helps !

Actually, no. It's quiet silent. I was surprised to hear it. I thought it would be way more noisy.

not very noisy at all.....feels like more of a paper material and may be just a tad noisy if it's loose fitting on you...i wore mine over my clothes and it was just more bulky than anything else

It sounds like a vacuum cleaner. It's maybe a little noisier than some hand-held vacs because it is more powerful, but I don't think it's dramatically louder.

I do not think it is very noisey. In fact I have opened it up to see if it was working because it is so quiet.

It's not as quiet as cotton (which is pretty darn quiet), but it's very far from noisy; and does not at all sound like plasticky or crinkly stuff. To the extent it makes noise when you shift (which isn't much), it's like a soft whisper like leaves in a breeze. I can sometimes here my cats' footsteps as they walk across it.I use mine as the top bed covering rather than having a comforter or duvet inside it. Very happy with it - it's breathable so I don't get too hot.

Yes. It is quiet but not soundless. If you want total silence, you will be disappointed.

It is quieter than a lot of shredders I have used. The noise level does vary with what is being shredded.

There is a white noise - depends on what level you put it on. The higher level the noisier it gets. Compared to others I've had in the past, it's pretty quiet.

I think it is somewhat loud, but it is significantly less loud if you hold it in your hands rather than have it sitting on the counter. If you need it really quiet, you can always put a towel around it (I've done this when grinding coffee at night).

Yes, it is fairly quiet....my problem with this dryer is that it literally fell apart in less than a year...the plastic cracked around the nozzle and became dangerous to use...I buy Solano hair dryers..they are the only dryer that I know of that will be repaired by the manufacturer for life. I was very disappointed in the TOOLS hair dryer.

It is not low noise. Can't here over it. Maybe like a blow dryer, Bounce house is great though! Have a 3, 4, and 1 yr old All love it

When it is running it sounds like a blender at low speed....even when shredding cardboard or something thicker. The motor noise is a constant low hum no matter how many documents are being shredded at once. In other words the motor does not sound like it is working harder when shredding thicker things. There is a metal ringing/clicking sound sometimes when shredding thicker things...this is the finger guards touching together...I think....hope this helps...so far I am very happy with this shredder.
