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

We love this coop! This was an upgrade from the wooden one we built when we first got chickens 6 years ago. It was decent, but after 6 years in the elements, it needed to be replaced. But with two little kids, we needed something simple to put together. This coop was easy to assemble, the chickens love it, and it seems easy to clean! It feels like it will hold up to the elements well too. It took two adults and one 3 year old about 4 hours to assemble (and that includes time looking for the screwdriver when it had to help blow bubbles in the strawberry patch)

We LOVE our chicken enclosure and coop. So easy to clean and chickens took to it right away. Thanks omlet!

I really love my Eglu Cube. The instructions to put it together were really good and I like that it's so easy to clean and to access the egg and roosting compartment. Most important I feel confident my hens are safe at night. I particularly wanted something I could move easily around my garden on my own every couple of days, but I find it a struggle to hitch the wheels up and to move with the run attached, and it is not easy to remove the run once it's been attached.

I have to update my racing review because it's only been two days in the eglu and I have gotten my first egg today! I think they weren't laying in the old coop because they were so unhappy. Thank you, Omlet!

I started my flock from week old chicks back in May. I had been eying the Eglu Cube online, but was hesitant due to cost. I purchased a small henhouse with run from my local feed store, which looked cute seemed fine at first. I also purchased a larger run from Amazon and enclosed the coop within it. As soon as the weather warmed up, I discovered that I had a serious mite issue that was preventing my birds from thriving. The coop and run were covered in the tiny buggers! The entire situation was so disheartening. I'm still kicking myself for not purchasing the Eglu first, since the money I spent for the filthy coop and run combined, plus treatment costs were far more. I have been unable to get rid of the mites in spite of alternating elector psp and permethrin. the wooden coop with tarred roof just has too many hiding places, the tray is so heavy and the entire set up is really difficult to clean. I received my Eglu over the weekend. I was able to put it together myself with ease since the written instructions were the best I've ever seen! The online videos were also helpful. Having the ability to clean and sanitize or open their coop door without sticking my head into a box full of mites is a total relief! At first I thought the Eglu & 9ft run might be too small for my flock of 6 medium & large sized birds, but this couldn't be further from the truth. The girls were so excited and played in the run all day, non stop. I've never seen them so active! They are obsessed over the pecking toy, and the food and water dishes seem to delight them as well. They have so much more room to roost as they are no longer all crammed onto one roosting bar and have room to move about and be comfortable in the cube. I've seen reviews online where people say the chickens have trouble with the roosting bars and ladder, but mine seemed to take to them immediately without slipping. They each found their comfy spot and settled down much more quickly then in the old coop. I cannot express enough how thrilled I am with the quality of this product! Knowing this, I will soon be investing in the walk-in run to add a play area with the pole tree perches, and the automatic door as well. The fact that the perches are made from eucalyptus wood to repel mites just confirms how much thought is being put into design! These products are definitely made for people who love and care about their pet's health and happiness, and are willing to invest in the very best. Bravo Omlet!

We have been using our 9' coop/run for six months. We love it. We have had no issues with predators. It even held off three very hyper Dalmations that raced into our yard. With the wheels, we have easily moved it three times. It is now in our raised bed garden. The garden has a fence around it, so my "Chickie Babies" can have a supervised outing each evening. Yes, they are spoiled. They love blueberrys in the spring, and cool watermelon in the summer. We have many places for shade near the coop including the coop covers, outdoor umbrellas, and trees. Our chickens love to peck off their lavender planted near the coop. I have recommended Omlet to family and friends.

I heard about this product when I was talking to someone in the park and he was saying how fantastic it was. I bought the 3 metre one for my three chooks. I put it together whilst being locked up with covid. I did have a few hiccups putting it together where I didn’t understand the instructions and because I open one box at a time and started construction of each box I didn’t find the complete instructions until the last box. Each box has its own instructions for that part so I was using my iPad to construct which was a bit of a pain so I would suggest you find the complete book before you embark on this project. The hutch is very sturdy and once I got into the swing of it it was not too bad to complete. Fortunately if you make a mistake it to easy to fix because the plastic joiners are easy to I click. I highly recommend this product and now that my chook are used to it they love it.

Had my eglu up a week and a half and it’s fantastic. I look forward to having it for many years

Expensive coop and instructions are very vague pictures with no step by step instructions. . Video on youtube isn’t the best as there is no one explaining assembly. For a first time chicken Mom I feel there needs to be a better guide to step by step assembly and better video. Clips are super hard to clip together and lots of pieces.

Chickens love these! my friend calls it the Jetsons home.
