For many years I used the Eglu classic. This time around, I chose to try the Eglu up go as the idea of the hen house been higher off the ground appealed very much. After finally getting around to building this weekend, I have to say, that the quality of the classic does not appear to be there. It's seems very bitty in comparison. However I do love the purple colour and the fact that the hen house is in the air. If only the Eglu classic was in the air, now that would be fantastic. Good product could just feel a bit more expensive for the cost. Currently feels very cheap considering the actual cost.

We are very happy with the new run, it was easy to put up - once we worked out which clips to use with which panels- like all these things it's easy once you have that Eureka moment! It is nicely fox proof - evidence they'd tried to get in due to objects outside that had been moved / destroyed - but no chance they could penetrate. The split door is really useful for corn scattering. The run will be easy to cover if the AI restrictions come back into force in our area. Competitive price to other systems we looked at, but easier to maintain and fitted easily to our existing Eglu cube (Mk1) and run (which must be at least 10 -12 yrs ? old and still going strong.

Only drawback we've come across is that the girls sometimes sleep in the nest - this can lead to early-morning eggs getting dirty. The little side door is a great addition|!

Much improved from the original grub feeder. Easy to clean and fill and If you don't fill it too much nothing spills out onto the floor when the chickens start noshing.

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.

Ginger rabbit is very happy with the cover which provides shade and shelter from the rain. Very easy to attach the cover to the run.

A quick solution to protect my ducks from foxes. Relatively easy to install, well-designed and strong, and blends nicely into the garden. Impressed by the secure and tamper-proof gate latch.

This is a neat and stylish solution for backyard bunny accommodation. Room to be out and about on grass, to stand and hop, with a cosy weatherproof hutch. The rain/shade cover is a welcome inclusion. Took longer than estimated to assemble the hutch but I am very pleased with the finished product. In my area the run has to be mosquito-proof so I have another step to go to cover it with fly wire. A comment on your packaging: we don't have curbside polystyrene recycling and many manufacturers have moved to cardboard padding instead which is sustainable and biodegradable. It would be great for the environment if you stop using polystyrene packaging. Also - there were two instruction booklets in the boxes - one of which made no mention of the centre run poles which I had to retrofit at the end when I realised.

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 bought an igloo guniea pig hutch for our 3 guniea pigs thinking that it would solve all our problems. I can fault the build of the hutch however I find the access to the pigs really tricky. with the 2m run its impossible to catch them because they just run up the other end and there is no top access so you have to clamber inside. The access from the back, which very convenient for feeding, I find tricky to get at them for worry of them escaping from the opening whilst it is down. I also think it is too small for 3 gunea pigs. Although we clean it out regularly it is alway a horrible, small mess. I'm sorry but I do wish I had taken up the 30 day return offer.
