Easy to put together and use and the chickens are happy too! A great design.

Very pleased with my 3 gingernuts and their green Eglu go. I have a slight problem with the door but suspect it maybe due uneven ground. Two out of 3 laying - one on the first day! Great service from Omlet

I bought my cube after using 2 separate eglus for my ladies. On the whole, it was easy to put together but the roof was tricky to align. It is easy to clean out and move and the hens took to it straight away. Sadly the cube itself arrived dirty, with some deep scratches on it (the packaging was undamaged) which I wasn't happy with for the price. I also agree with an earlier comment that the run needs a perch. I have used a rectangular piece of wood with bevelled edges (similar dimensions to the bars inside the cube) and pushed it diagonally through the bars of the run, secured at each end and this works very well. I've also attached an eglu run over the open door of the cube run to extend their run by another 2m

Good quantity for the price, but can see that the plastic is stressed when clip is fastened.

The plastic ladder is somewhat awkward to use for the chickens, it is slippery and chickens find it hard to get a grip on it. This is why they avoid using it. Inside the cube it would be helpful to have some kind of an elevated bar for the chickens so sit and sleep upon. (At least our breed prefers to sleep on bars...)

Very pleased with my Eglu - my chickens started laying almost straight away, it's very easy to clean and it looks great. It's very easy to move forwards and swivel round, but I don't find it easy to move backwards, and as my lawn is quite a strange shape I do need to manoeuvre it a bit to get it onto fresh grass. I hope I'll become more adept with practice!

We love our new Eglu and our 3 Pepperpots. I am new to keeping chickens and don't know anyone else who has them. The facts that the system does not need maintenance and is healthier for chickens, were the deciding factors for my purchase. I chose the green colouring and its really unobtrusive in my garden. The man who delivered the system was excellent. He assessed the site to make sure the ground was level and foxes could not burrow into the run, assembled the whole thing for me, clipped the wings, explained a great deal about keeping chickens and left me feeling competent to cope. We had our first egg 3 days later and they have been daily since. I feel less intimidated by the weeds in my garden now that I know that the chickens love to eat them and they result in such bright yellow yokes. Absolutely delicious! I am also sooooo excited about the impact of all that lovely chicken manure on my fruit veg and flowers!

I love my Eglu. The man came when he said he would, set up the eglu and taught me how to look after my ladies. The eglu itself looks great in the garden and is really easy to keep clean. My ladies laid on their way to our house then started laying again after only 1 day. We have had 5 eggs now in 4 days and one was a double yolker! The kids love it too. They let the hens out in the morning and help feed them, but best of all they love to collect the eggs.

Very pleased with the cube and although it took my girls a while to work out the stairs they got there in the end! Put it together on my on so it took longer than 2 hours but with help I am sure it would have been quicker! I agree with other reviewers that handles at the end would probably make it easie to move around, and perhaps a door under the cube would make it easier for access that end, especially for those like me with a dodgy back and knees. I was concerned with the price so hope it will be worth it in the long term! But very pleased overall.

Looks a good product... but chickens not quite figured it out yet. I have to say that we were very surprised by the quality of the product. The join between the two plastic moulds is very rough. This wasn't what we expected given the excellent quality of all other Omlet products we have. Disappointing.
