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

Absolutely love my Eglu Cube, it has made looking after my chickens a much more enjoyable process as so easy to keep clean

When you are a first time keeper of chickens it is quite daunting however Omlet have made it so simple even I can do it. I can only speak highly of the quality of product and service we received. We had two eggs at delivery point and two weeks later with three Miss Pepper-pots and two Ginger Nut Rangers we are getting four or five each day. It is so satisfying and the dog is getting used to them albeit slowly. He is a Springer Spaniel though Thank you Omlet

i have had the cube for a few weeks now and its really good! a doddle to clean and wash takes me a few minutes for a quick clean. however i live outside the delivery zone so didn't qualify for home set up, i did it myself and being 15 i enjoyed setting it up but found it hard as i couldn't get it perfect. there are small gaps is places like for example between the back panel and roof but my chickens don't seem to mind!!! also one of the 6 boxes were sent to the wrong depot so i had to wait another day for the roof and sides to arrive, but anyway i love it its great and much better than a wooden coop i would recommend it to anyone

Love, love, LOVE our Eglu Cube. Looks great in the garden, plenty of space for the chickens and easy to move and clean. We also ordered the moveable fencing and this was quick and easy to put up. We ordered 3 hens from Omlet and these arrived happy and healthy and have already provided hours of entertainment! First egg laid after 3 days. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend. We have a wooden chicken coop that we house our guinea pigs in and this cost us £150 18 months ago. The roof has already rotted, loads of nooks and crannys to clean and really difficult to get it to dry in the winter and the ramp broke after a few months. Omlet wins hands down.

Having lost two chooks in wooden housing I wanted a house that I could clean out and dry in double quick time. This is a peach! We put ours together and it's not the easiest of flat packing scenarios, however 2-3 hours is all it took. I agree the run is not easy to get into and out of, but it is so easy to move around to fresh ground and we have a lumpy bumpy orchard garden. Plus to keep Foxy Features out I'd recommend buying extra clips and to keep looking for any weaknesses. I do as we live in open countryside and the security aspect of the cube was another deciding factor. In fact Omlet stuff is so good I'm saving for the WIR. If you can collect, I would. We had no bashes owing to us acting as courier. Staff at Omlet were brilliant at packing the car! Just ordered the girls - now have five chooks - an extreme weather jacket. Is it wrong that I am the excited one? If you're hesitating and have the money, don't - just buy! You will not be disappointed. Oh and one more thing, we have cable tied a rubber mat with holes in to our ladder, as for me that is Omlet's Achilles Heel on this design. But their only one.

I bought one of these several years ago now because I have back problems and wanted a chicken house that would last and I could look after without bending and it is still working well. One wheel rusted through eventually, but Omlet replaced both immediately and were very helpful. My only disappointment was that there is no raised perch. Birds perching in front of each other can get pecked so mine tend to sit in the nest box which means I have to clean it out more often. Easy to clean with pressure washer or steam cleaner and importantly I can manage to keep the red mite population down by hand killing them where they hide as nice and visible.

On the whole I love my cube although I had a ramp made rather than that stupid ladder. The slot under the nest box is a nuisance as the bedding drops through which is just throwing money away. Impossible to engage the wheels with just one person. However I love the cube it is easy to clean much warmer than the old wooden coop I had and looks good in the garden.

My new hens just love it but wouldn't come outside for three days until my husband made a wooden ramp for them! An enormous gale last night but still they were warm and cosy.

Really pleased with my Eglu chicken house. Much easier to keep clean than wooden ones, chickens very happy. Bit tricky for me to move on my own as our field is quite rutted, but with a bit of help it's no problem. Think I will invest in the bigger run too eventually. Joanna

Very happy with our new house, much easier to move around than our old wooden house and less damage to the lawn.
