When I first paralyzed Merach Mini Stepper and Merach Stair Climber, the manufacturer of “Whisper-Quiet Operation” seemed to be too good for it. The noise level of all exercise equipment is a production factor for me. So I wanted to do the right test. I used these two stepper throughout the film to know how quiet they were.
setting
My original plan was to test this machine while going to a partner, but I realized that he was a deep sleeper. Instead, I chose Monday night for experimentation and settled to see the Grand Budapest Hotel. I wanted something with enough conversation and quiet moments to make the noise of exercise equipment clearly. My living room setting is quite common. A wall that amplifies all footsteps from the wooden floor, about 6 feet away from the TV, from the upstairs apartment.
I tested both devices because I can exchange it in my eyes as described here and here. Both belong to the “Steper” category. One is a mini and focuses more on the calf, while one is closer to the climber and aims for the buttocks. It’s not a “serious” sculpture of exercise equipment, but I sat on the couch and did nothing.
I started with a staircase climbing price, put it in front of the sofa and maintained the TV volume to the usual level (about 30%in the sound bar). About 30 minutes later, I switched the machine.
I saw the movie and promised that I did not star in the empty screen.

As the opening credit rolled, it took 1 second to soften and control the stepping motion. The most prominent sound at this point was actually my breath. The staircase climbing itself only created a subtle mechanical sound. In that note …
Actual noise evaluation
In order to express the noise level with perspective, we compared it with other household sounds throughout the evening. Steper is similar to:
-
Riding a compressor of the refrigerator
-
Dishwasher
-
The rain protrudes in the window
-
I’m walking normally in my upstairs
The only time I became a hyperware for Steper’s mechanical sound was the most quiet moment of the film, and even the background music of the film is a dramatic pause that disappears.
What do you think so far?
The most impressive aspect for me is not the minimum noise, but the vibration delivery to the floor. Despite the squeaky wooden floor of my apartment, there was no additional squeaking sound or vibration to move to the nearby unit. Steper’s rubber floor effectively separated all movements from the bottom.
But all kinds of fast stepping naturally produced more noise. In particular, when using minisetper, the hydraulic system creates a silent sound that doesn’t match well with a quiet movie.
verdict
After using it for almost two hours, you can confidently say that Merach Mini Stepper and the staircase meets the quiet operational claims. These devices have successfully passed the best apartment -friendly test, which is the ability to exercise in a film where I do not miss the witty exchange. In addition, after an hour of stepping (some mini, some climbing), I can say safely that I have been amazingly shocking.
If so, will Merach Mini Stepper and Stair Climbing change the body? No, but will they interfere with your movie? Also not. And it is a function that is definitely worth congratulating noise for people who live in a branch close to the neighborhood and thin walls without interfering with others in the house.
