Verified Reviews for Eglu Cube® - Large Chicken Coops and Runs
Amazing
The Eglu cube is amazing. So easy to build. So easy to clean. Looks fantastic in the garden. My chickens love their new coop they are safe and happy. Brilliant on hot days everyone is cool and happy that gives me piece of mind. I have a 2m run with mine the whole set up is nice and roomy. I have 5 hens with ample room. So easy to collect eggs and check on everyone. I can not fault the Eglu Cube! If you are considering getting one I highly recommend it. It’s amazing!

Best Coop Ever
I wish everything in my life, including home, cars, outbuildings, camping equipment -- was made this easy and this well. It took longer than an hour for me and my housemate to put together, but no mind, it is one of the best purchases I have made, and my flock is safe, warm, comfy, and happy!

My honest opinion~
I purchased my first Cube approximately 18 months ago… I had the three foot run (6ft if you count under the coop~ I found it was just too short for my four Buffs so I ordered the 3 ft extension and It was perfect! The only complaint I have is it would be great if it had an access point (extra door) under the coop, I think it would make it easier to spread my straw in the colder months. So, the cube in general is wonderful, easy to clean my birds love it and I really like it too, so much so, I purchased a 2nd on through omlet and a third one through a private seller that no longer needed it. So my over all rating would be a five, because my birds love, it is insulated (although it does get pretty warm in there in the summer sun of TN) and it is very east to clean. Also, customer Service is amazing!!!!

So far so good!
I purchased the Eglu Cube, one run extension (9ft total), the auto door, and a few other coop accessories like the perch and treat caddy. Assembling the coop was fairly easy, although the directions do not note when to pause if you’re adding the auto door, so I did some extra building, un-building, and then rebuilding. I wish the run assembly instructions were more clear with where and how to distribute the fasteners, but we got through it.
Overall, I am very pleased with the quality of materials and design. I live in a high predator area and also must deal with extreme cold, but I rest easy at night knowing the girls are safely tucked away. I added some extra zip ties to reinforce a few spots, but only because I’m worried about large animals. The auto door is a great feature and the girls quickly learned to head inside when the coop light comes on.
My only critique is how awkward it is to access the run if needed. Unless you’re planning to use the attached run as a tractor and don’t mind occasionally crawling inside, I recommend paying for the walk-in run.

Great coop
The coop itself is very well designed with all the key features a chicken coop needs! The run is slightly shaky and would expect better than zip-ties for an expensive coop, but with extra run reinforcements, it is truly predator-proof. Will soon be ordering another one!!!

So far so good
We moved our 6 Chantecler chicks into the large coop and 12 ft run. I’d say 4-5 chickens would probably fit more comfortably. If I could improve it I would make the wheels larger- our yard is bumpy and it can be difficult to move. I’d like the option to have an electric water bowl that attaches to the side for the winter months. Overall I’m happy with it and would purchase it again.

After 9 months...Eglu Cube + 9' Run + 9'x12' Walk-in + Auto-door + Roosting Bars & Perches
Yes, I went all out. Solid products. Quality materials. Easy-to-clean coop. Reliable auto-door. Creative and adjustable perch/roosting bar kits. I doubted that 8 hens could sleep in the coop...and while it seems cramped and bedtime can get noisy, they make it work. Happy hens.
Cons: 1. Complicated assembly. Be sure to follow instructions or you will be disassembling to hit a missed step. 2. Pricey!

I did my research and I am very happy top of the line product
It came very quickly to my surprise it was exactly what they advertise I am very happy I had to do some adjustments due to the fact that the openings is a little bit wider for my territory now it's very heavy I can't move it as easy but I definitely recommend this

Review after 9 months, Flock of 8 mid-sized hens: Eglu Cube + 6' Tractor Run + 9'x12' Walk-in Run
I know, I know - I went all in! But it doesn't stop there - The birds also enjoy a roosting complex of perches, we all like the reliable auto-door, the feeding/watering troughs that keep food/water mostly contained and clean easily, and the 3'x9' dark green tarp that provides shade and shelter. What can I say? We are fans. Impressed even. I have not had a hard attempt at encroachment on the enclosure, but a soft one or three have occurred; Raccoons, possums, cats, and multiple rat snakes. Nobody sweats the snakes though as they are welcome to the field mice! In fact, one juvenile snake currently lives under my house (on stilts) where the bird enclosure is. The last attempted incursion, a huge wild-looking cat, scared my 3-5 mutineers that had been sleeping out in the enclosure up on the perches for 2-3 months at that time.
My set-up: Walk-in+Tractor Run+Coop (All attached, mostly under my house on stilts, rural setting, thick bayou forestland). Auto door between tractor run and walk-in enclosure. Full-time open door on the actual Cube coop. Roosting bar in the tractor run and roosting complex in the walk-in.
Anyway, after the cat incident, all 8 are now in the Cube coop at night - Even through the worst of the heat wave we had this summer. They were and are comfortable and safe - 8 medium-sized hens (4 Welsummers and 4 Welsummer/Cream Leg Bar hybrids). IMO, the walk-in enclosure likely would NOT withstand a hard attack (as designed), but with some added/custom framing it would. However, the tractor run and coop are stout, which is the birds' secured area. All components are holding up well and performing perfectly, as advertised. Quality materials and manufacturing. My own custom connection between walk-in run+tractor run. Custom connection of auto-door to tractor run, lower, wire door space. Using hardware cloth & zip ties mostly. Top wire door to tractor run is still usable and accessible. Advice: Take your time with assembly and follow the instructions step by step. I will include pics when we can figure out why the ones just taken with my phone will not upload at the moment.

Excellent Coop
I bought this coop, because I already had the walk-in chicken run, but I had an old wooden bunnings coop that was just a pain to clean and was getting too small for my needs. This coop took all of 5-mins to clean and fits all my chooks. Took them a bit of time to get use to going up steps instead of a ramp though.
