It all depends on your perspective. To me, this stove is LOUD as are all plate burners. One consolation is it keeps critters @ bay! If you're concerned about noise, consider a canister stove.

Slightly louder than you need to know that it is running. Some people find it slightly annoying, but as I said, its good to know that it is still running and hasn't blown out. Don't worry about it. It's definitely one of the best white gas stoves out there.

Not that loud, capable of being used at night with other campers present.
