Verified Reviews for Eglu Cube^® - Large Chicken Coops and Runs

I purchased this after using 2 wooden hutches (which had started to rot after less than 4 years). I love it. It is so easy to clean and I can move it if necessary on my own. The chickens seems so much happier. I wish I had bought one when I first had chickens.

I was looking to extend my Mk1 and when I saw the Mk2 had been released, I decided to go for it. I love the fact that the handle for the main door is now on the roof. I also love the slide door to close off the coop. Two great upgrades. However, it is much harder to clean out that the Mk1. The Roosting bars are one massive section so is much more cumbersome for cleaning. Also the roof is permanently affixed so does not slide back like the Mk1 which makes it much more difficult to clean out the house part. the drinker bowl is poorly designed, if you fill it, it sags forward due to the weight on the run bars and spills out. Just dont fill it too much as its too heavy! Being so open also means that it gets muddy easily. I will be using my old drinkers. On the whole I am pleased I chose to upgrade, but its not perfect yet.

I was worried about plastic but it's so much cleaner than wood! The ladder is a bit steep and the steps would benefit from being wider! The laying area should be detachable because it still gets dirty even if they don't sleep in it!

We battled with moving a homemade chicken house/run for a few months before I threw in the towel and purchased the Eglu Cube. It happened just when the ban on keeping birds outside happened before Christmas so it was timely that I could move them daily around our garden in their run. It's a clever piece of engineering. It's not quite as easy as it looks in the promotional video to actually move as the handles are low so you have to bend and shove (to overcome ruts in grass) but that aside it works fine. The food and water containers work well and the birds seem happy in their new house!

We bought and Eglu Cube and put it together on a very cold January day. I love the unit. It's easy to use, easy to clean and my 4 girls are warm and dry. I can give 5 stars for the unit without reservation. I posted four our of five stars because the run assembly took four hours and the enclosed clips were fiddley and really difficult to use. We ended up reinforcing the run assembly with standard zip ties. I think if it was assembled with zip ties to begin with it WOD have gone much faster. Over all very satisfied though.

Fantastic addition to our yard. Very easy to clean, the girls love it!

Purchased my new Eglu cube a few weeks ago..all ready and waiting for the arrival of my hens (delays due to bird flu virus) It has stood in the garden with every weather condition thrown at it from ice ,wind,freezing rain and sun and it still looks bright and is completely dry inside.. I have always had wooden houses and this was something of a considered purchase but I am thrilled with the whole design ,and I know my girls will love it when they come in March..

Extremely happy with the Eglu Cube with 3M run and wheels - it is sturdy and very easy to clean and looks good.

Although the eglu was a considered purchase, We are over the moon with it! It arrived on time and all the parts were there! It was fairly easy to put together following the video guide on the Omlet website, it took about 4 hours with two of us. It looks great in the garden and the girls love it! Glad we bought one!
