Is it really loud when you crush the ice?

Not as loud as most. Of course it still makes noise but compared to other ice crushers, we don't mind it.

It is loud like all the ice shavers I have purchased. I think it is the best one I have bought for the money.

No, hardly makes any noise at all to me, but to me it doesnt get drinks cold enough either, before they send to you if there is a adjustment they can make to make colder, it would be advisable, i put ice in mine,it is a cool little machine tho,ive enjoyed it.

I don't think it is super loud, but it makes some noise... I have not owned any others of these to have something to compare it to

I do not think it is loud and I believe it shreds reasonable fast. It really depends on your standard by which you judge it.

It's about as loud as the ice crusher on the door of the refrigerator. But it works really fast, so the noise hasn't bothered me at all.

It's has less noise than a blender. It requires 2 trays of ice, you can put less depending on size of the item you want to cool. I got it as a present, it was a big hit.

It's not unusually loud, about the same as other blenders. But I have only used it once to make a blended ice coffee drink.

Yes it is pretty loud. not as loud as crushing ice in a blender but far from quiet. To work properly you need about a tray of ice. It's a pretty situational appliance but it does come in very handy when unexpected guests stop by and you have no chilled ice. how well it works 8/10, how practical it is 5/10. very cool item over though.

I don't think it's all that loud but if you blow hard on it I guess it could be. It's just a basic cheap plastic whistle.

Not too noisy. I posted a short video of the Snow Joe in about 8 inches of powdery snow on YouTube: http://youtu.be/cauUUHCOQLo

No, it is not extremely loud. But, it is inside a cabinet which hides that completely, and was why I liked that it had the fan for cooling.

It's pretty loud for being how small it is. Depends how big the space is for the party. If you're in an apartment/condo absolutely. If you're in an 8 bedroom three story house, probably not...

Yes. It is pretty loud. I drive a heavy machine at work and can hear it over the engine when not accelerating.

It's not quiet. I used a sound level meter to compare it to a couple other units and it's literally 10-20 times louder. The sound it makes is also particularly annoying.

It is pretty loud, but it moves a ton of air! I use it in my workout room and the noise is fine. If you plan on using it near a TV or while sleeping, it might be a little too loud.

The compressor noise is, compared to the rumble of the ice maker releasing the cubes in the container, low. Actually, I never really heard it kicking in.

It's quite loud. If you are looking for a quiet model this may not be for you.
