Worrying about people hearing my toy is definitely a turn off.

It's sucks worrying if your roommate is going to hear it.

Just the noise factor. We are alone in the house but if it gets too loud, forget the orgasm. I cannot handle loud noises and my husband get pretty irritated with them.

I'd rather not hear my toy over my porn.

I hate them, I live with three other people and I don't care for them knowing when I'm having a little private time. I think if I lived alone or with a partner I wouldn't mind as much though.

I live with family, so I have to be careful about using loud toys and make sure no one is around. Even then, I don't like them. I find they distract me from the experience, which is bad when I'm alone, and even worse when I'm with a partner.

Doesn't bother me if it provides lots of power. I'm lucky I have sex positive roommates who don't care if anyone else is masturbating.

As much as I love my hitachi, it's freaking loud. Even under two blankets. It can ruin the moment if I'm worried about housemates coming home.

I live in the dorms, so noise is a no-no.

Not going to lie, it's a turn on for me. Classical conditioning at its finest. I know from that noise that good things are about to come.

I prefer quiet toys. I don't like to worry about the neighbors knowing what I"m doing.

Turn off! I like them quiet. I also live with others at the moment. So stealth is always needed. Plus it's distracting and just noisy. I like to be able to hear if someones walking around or comming to my room. and if your living with others its also important to be stealth while in the shower to.

I'm not really against loud toys. I'm not turned on by the sound, but I'm not particularly turned off by it either. I mean, if we have privacy (like in our apartment), then it doesn't matter. But in a shared living space, we usually turn on music to cover the sounds of sex anyway.

Until my fiance and I get our own place it's a turn off. I can't relax if I'm worrying someone here is gonna hear my vibe!

I don't like worrying about someone hearing me so it's a turn off.

The noise level honestly does not really bother me too much. I don't want something that sounds like a leaf blower or a chain saw, but unless the toy is really, really loud it doesn't matter to me so much. Of course, I do feel that a strong toy that's also quiet is nicer than a loud toy though... so there you go. lol

Other! Like Indiglo, I'm not really bothered by noisy toys, unless they're off-the-charts loud.

I don't have to worry about others hearing my vibrators, but it's still a big turn off for me. I find it hard to concentrate when it's too loud.

The Form 6 was really bad for me. It has this high pitched whine, and it gets louder and louder. Sometimes I take a bit longer than usual, it would sound more like a baby's crying. That's generally when I turn it off, and switch to something else.

Certain noises cause me physical pain, so I am very picky about the noise they make
