Here are some suggestions:
Rattling noise is created when components vibrate against each other. An easy fix (it worked in my case) is to get a tube of caulk (I used clear instead of white) and caulk every area where there's a joint, even at the outlet where the duct with the flapper mounts to the fan. Just take your time and make sure to get every single joint.
When mounting fan to a joist, use screws instead of nails. Nails can begin to back off due to fan's vibration. Also, place some type of insulation between the joist and the mounting plate of the fan to dampen vibration. I used a piece of ¼" thick rubber.
After the fan is mounted, use a can of foam insulation and spray the foam around where the fan casing meets the ceiling. As the foam expands and hardens, it will provide additional support to the fan, making it more stable. As an added bonus, you may also prevent your AC from escaping around the fan.
When installing the light housing, make sure the nut that support the housing is tight. Don't use just the nut to get the light housing tight against the fan housing, instead push the housing with one hand while tightening the nut. By pushing with your hands, you'll feel whether or not the housing is well seated.
Finally, tie the electrical wires or tape them together and to the fan housing. Wires, it left loose will vibrate and may create noise.
A vibration noise like a loose wire may not be enough to be bothersome, but add the many places an exhaust fan can vibrate and it can drive anyone nuts. However, with some preventing measurements, this fan will sound and look good without breaking your wallet (or purse for that matter).
Note: I could give it a four start due those loose joints issues, but with such a low price and the easy fix to those issues, these exhaust fan is a great product.
We purchased these when we remodeled the house and our installers had no issues getting them installed.
Installation:
I thought it was going to be a simple unscrew and remove but that was not the case. In order to get to the screws that held up the old fan, drywall needed to be removed making this a little more costly and messy than expected. Wiring was also difficult because of the tight space we had to work with. We could not get access to it in the attic due the houses construction. If we were able to do the wiring through the attic, I believe it would have been easier.
Supplies:
Drywall
Drywall knife
Spackle
Hand saw
Putty knife
Wood
Paint
You will see in photos on one side, the new drywall we installed to cover the hole we needed to make. It does look like a mess there. At that point we had to undo part of our work because we had to resecure the wiring to the light.
We ended up giving the whole ceiling a fresh coat of paint. I thought it would be easier then trying to paint match the previous owners color.
We are first time homebuyers and have never had to replace or do any maintenance with that said I’m happy with our end result.

Installed in basement washroom that's underneath a room. you can definitely hear a very faint hum from the bedroom if you listen real closely but not enough to disturb sleep.
the "in bathroom" noise is on par with our other nu-tone if only a little bit louder.
The Ive installed a 5000k 100w equivalent bulb and it definitely is not enough to light up the whole room, even as it is installed in the middle of the room. so a vanity light and a shower light IS REQUIRED.
