Is it normal for the blender to make a loud noise during operation?

Some noise is normal during operation due to the motor and blade action. However, if the noise is excessively loud or unusual, check for obstructions and ensure all components are correctly assembled. Regular maintenance and cleaning can help reduce noise levels.
