According to some, the less expensive the unit the louder they are also.
Considering the length of time one uses such a
thing, I can't imagine that quietness would really be an issue.

I have a Victor Stream. I use it for recording
meeting. Some of the meetings are in large rooms
and include several people. I also get a good
recording over the phone. If I'm attending a
meeting by phone, I will put the Stream in
another room with a speaker phone. Then I can
listen to it and

Aloha Everyone,
We are ready to have vinyl flooring installed in the kitchen. We
discovered that the current vinyl was installed over some old
flooring that my contractor thinks is what they call VCT. Does anyone
know when they stopped using asbestos in such flooring? We may be
able to remove t
Hi Claudia,
I have those in both of my bathrooms and love
them. Depending on where one lives they may be
costly, but here I can get a replacement for
about $200. When we had to replace a washer in
