I love my Featherweight, including how quiet it is. The first time I sewed with it, I was amazed. So quiet and also sews great for piecing.
|
Quietest machine I have ever had is a Bernina 801 Sport. That little baby just purrs. Thankfully I didn't trade it in when I bought a computerized machine. the sport has very few stitches, but love using it for piecing and simple buttonhole applique. also zig zag is really cool.

bernina is the quietest but also try putting your current machine on a rubber mat (think welcome mat) that may fix the problem

Buy him some foam ear plugs. I sleep with them every night, best sleep I have ever had. Very cheap and can buy a bunch in a jar at Wal Mart.
My husband could sleep with almost any kind of noise. All machines are quiet until they get broke in. |

My Singer 201 treadle machine is very quiet. Also my Singer 221 Featherweight.

Try putting a carpet sample under your machine, this will make the machine quieter.

I agree with those who recommend the old reliable Singer 201....super machine, super strong, super quiet. And.....best part is.... it won't clean out your bank account. Service requirements are almost non-existent.

I have a Singer 9940 that I don't think is very loud but the walking foot is very noisy.
