Verified Reviews for Eglu Chicken Coop Accessories

I love the idea and the handles are very sturdy and should make moving the coop/run much easier. However, installing them has been harder than it should be, since I have added hardware cloth on my run. The bolts are *just* long enough without the HWC. I'm having to scrounge up some random bolts that are long enough to make it work. Beware if you've added HWC, you'll need to supplement the hardware yourself.

After wrestling with a manual/guillotine style door to our chicken coop - and sometimes forgetting to open or close it! - we were quite happy to finally have an automatic door that performers much better than anticipated. It's the ultimate "set-it & forget-it" product that allows our hens to be safe against night-time predators and the freedom to go outside in the mornings without having to wait on one of us to come out and manually open the coop door. We especially like the indoor light that allows for a quick check-up during dark hours without having to bring along a flashlight. The safety bar option is especially nice which prevents an accident should one of our hens decide to enter the doorway at the last minute. I highly recommend this product to anyone who wants the peace of mind associated with backyard chickens.

The handles make moving the coop so much easier and seems like they will help it to last better by not stressing the sides of it when its moved.

So happy with my purchase will see how how does this winter for my silkies! Thanks so much Omlet

Loving the handles, makes moving the coop so much easier for one of us alone.

My coop was a little hard to move because I am on a steep hill and have a 3 metre run. The handles are mounted on the front of the coop and have made a big difference to the effort I need to put in to move it. Very happy with the, the only slight downside is that they tend to narrow the doorway a little.

These handles definitely make it easier to move the unit from place to place. Pleased with my purchase.

I was lucky enough to find a Omlet Go coop for a steal, but my ladies weren’t too excited about it. Their other two coops are on stands and I think it just didn’t feel safe with it sitting on the ground. Since I got the coop for next to nothing I decided to splurge on a stand and wheels. I was honestly surprised how well the stand and wheels worked with the 7 year old coop. I thought there might be some issue with it not fitting, but no. It worked perfectly! Now I’m able to wheel the coop out of the indoor greenhouse run to pressure wash and to cool down on warmer days when the greenhouse is just too warm. The hens immediately started laying eggs in it and have even slept in it a few times. Great quality and easy installation, as usual. Omlet does not disappoint!

I have been using the wheels now for about a month. They definitely make it easier to move our Eglu Cube. However, they are a bit on the flimsy side for how much weight that they have to move. I would buy them again simply because I like to move the coop so my chickens have fresh grass. The design could be improved with strength though.

It is difficult to move the coop with the run attached without the wheels. These provide the necessary clearance to move the coop through the grass. Buy it! That said, the metal engineering is not as good as the plastic engineering. The wheels are wobbly and will slowly sink into the soil. Wide tyres would really help. My chickens don't use the space under the coop anyway.
