Verified Reviews for Eglu Go Guinea Pig Hutch

Our two guinea pigs are so far safe and warm even in Scotland

The Omlet is well worth the purchase - we wish we had bought it years ago instead of endless wooden hutches our rabbits chewed through! The inside living area is brilliant - warm and cosy. It is very easy to access and clean the indoor area. Accessing the outdoor run is a little more tricky - a side door would be useful? Also, our rabbits who chew for England, have already destroyed several of the plastic clips - we have replaced them with metal keyring holders!!! Hence ,half a star missing! Overall, brilliant - would highly recommend :-)

This feels like a great hutch, I've had guinea pigs and rabbits before and the cleaning process with traditional hutches is quite laborious. With the Go Hutch this process is quite easy, the tray is easy to wash down and disinfect, the inside is large enough for an adult to reach in and wash the inside too. It also feels strong and sturdy, ours is constantly moved around the garden for new grazing areas for our 3 little piggies. We've kept the front door open 24 hours a day until recently, now the temperature has dropped at night we close the front door to cut down on the drafts. The Guinea Pigs are keen to explore when it's morning. I have two areas that could be improved, the 1st is a further cover over the hutch area, something like a water/weatherproof quilt, possibly like an outdoor beanbag material, just to make sure they're not going to perish in the cold. We're planning to move ours into a shed over the very cold winter period just to be careful. I would also like the inner tray to be flat, with no section moulding, so only moulded at the edges, this could go higher to retain more sawdust/wood-shavings from spilling on the garden. Otherwise we're very happy.

I have two baby guinea pigs who are absolutely loving this hatch and run. Putting it together as per the instructions takes nearly 2 hours but maybe that's because we are both girls and had trouble deciphering exactly what each step was referring to! Once assembled this sturdy and robust hutch and run is great for all weathers and protects my guinea pigs against the local cats and foxes really well. It's so easy to keep clean with a removable tray and hayrack. I have mobility issues and bending down isn't great for me so to be able to remove the soil spreading easily was a must. However I have found the shade material difficult to get in the right place and I've had to use clothespeg to make it fit. Despite the small niggling worries I would highly recommend this excellent hatch and run for any rabbits and guinea pigs. It looks cool it's safe it looks after the animals and is easy to maintain and keep clean ... what more could you ask?

After a long time contemplating a new house for my guinea pigs I took advantage of the 10% discount which happened to fall on my birthday and as I had been given the piggies for my 40th birthday the year before I thought it was fitting. Well delivery was fuss free. Although the putting together was not. I did have quite a bit of difficulty putting the run together but I was doing it on my own. I think an extra pair of hands would have been better. Once it was up though it is very easy to use, and more importantly the piggies love it. I am now saving for the Go Up and Hoping for another discount day.

This item arrived in very good condition, took a while to assemble but was worth it as brilliant design, good quality and my two guinea pigs Milo and Alvin cant wait to get in it!! also very secure.

We have two giant indoor continentals rabbits so this was purchased to give them a safe house when playing in the garden. They love it and so do we! Plenty big enough even for two very large rabbits to lie in comfortably, provides nice cool shade, especially with the run cover added. Easy to move and clean and the shape of the hutch makes access simple. Easy to assemble although attaching the run to the hutch needed two pairs of hands. Would recommend to anyone but might suggest that if you can't let your rabbits run around the garden too the larger run would be better but this one was perfect for us.

Video shows a child moving it across the lawn - it's heavier than the video suggests. Bit of a palaver putting it together - two metal connectors between run and hutch don't fit in very well. Other than those points - it is brilliant to clean out and is totally predator proof. Hopefully it will last longer than the wooden one we had before.

Bit fiddly to build but once up seems sturdy. Light weight but really need two people to move. Removable tray makes cleaning very easy

thank you for the prompt delivery of the hutch, we were plesently surprised how easy it was to assemble and the build quality is great, also it is easy for every day use (cleaning etc) many thanks
