they vibrate, buzz, whatever & it gets on my tits, tried padding it with white tack etc done nish, any suggestions
 
It sounds like it may be clogged or old. Now they make some really quite ones. Sorry I'm not much help other then to say maybe check into buying a new one.
 
Get the smaller ones or the ones what are mostly of the floor. I have one it's like 1 cm from the floor. Thats good to. Not on table etc on floor.
 
check on the pump motor as most have got a small switch that turns down the speed of the motor thus reducing the noise.
 
think they are like that all the time,,just that you notice them more at night time when other things are quieter..
 
Hiya, I Had Same Prob, Not No More

Get A Fluvel External Pump

Silent!!!!!!!!!!!!
