Vicks V745 Noise level

Vicks V745 will make some noise as all humidifiers do. On the low setting, it is quiet. You will hear a low boiling noise. You will also hear a boiling noise, but a bit noisier in the high setting. Sometimes it gets a bit talkative, but that’s not happening often. If you are a light sleeper, this unit will not wake you up.
