Verified Reviews for Eglu Cube® - Large Chicken Coops with Runs
Easy to setup, easy to maintain
We've had our Eglu Cube with 6' run and wheels package for just over a year now. We have added on to it with a 6x6 walk-in run, a couple of self-install run doors to make maintenance easier, and a couple of Omlet peck toys.
I really appreciate the metal skirt around the bottom, which makes me feel more assured that raccoons, neighborhood cats, and other pests can't get inside the run and coop - to date we've had no issues with that at all. Maintenance on it is easy - we replace the roost bedding a couple times a week (we use coastal hay which is cheap and slides right off into our compost pile), hose off the roost tray with the hose once or twice a month, and replace the bedding in the nesting box every few weeks.
The Cube took a couple of hours to assemble with the whole family (kids and all) helping out. The plastic clips were a little difficult to get the hang of at first, but once we had some practice they went together easy, and since then they've all stayed put aside from a few that broke (but Omlet sent plenty of spares). The included water and food dishes are very hardy and also easy to clean out. I'm really surprised by how well everything has held up in the punishing Florida sun, from the Cube itself to the included sun shade, and the peck toys and heavy-duty cover (purchased separately from Omlet). Usually things become quickly weathered and brittle, but these are still going strong.
We really love our Cube, and our backyard flock does too.

Chicken Palace
We love our Omlet. We rescued 4 ex-battery hens and they love it too. It’s easy to clean, secure looks great in the garden. It was simple to put together and the modular nature of it means you can add to it as you want. We already have!

Beyond expecations
This chicken coop has held up beautifully for the last 2 years! Our kids are still willing to do the necessary chores to care for their flock of 6 hens because the Eglu makes it easy (and even fun) for us to feed, water, clean, harvest (eggs), move, release, and protect our hens. We have an abundance of predators, but our hens have been safe. The hens don't mind the cold snow or the humid heat, thanks to this coop. We are very glad that we spent the extra money to have such a wisely engineered coop.

Great product
After a terrible year of redmite and failing to keep my wooden coops dry I spoilt myself with the purchase of Eglu cube. It was recommended all over the poultry pages so I got myself one. First impressions are that it was bigger than I expected! I also had a little bit of bother putting it up when my partner failed to hold on to the side and it fell sideways ripping the bolt hole right out of the product! OUR fault entirely! We had found the instructions a bit baffling as they were designed for construction with the cage pen attached.....something I had not needed. OTHER than that I love it, it is so easy to clean on a daily basis and a thorough big clean will be a doddle....no more wooden coops for me!

A great kit
I was skeptical at first due to the cost that changed to pleased once the coop arrived. I find the materials to be of high quality and the components well made. I'm glad we purchased this as it will last a long time and is very easy to maintain. Mobility is a nice feature. 4 large chickens is the limit IMO. Two features I would have liked to have seen are an access door on the rear of the coop fencing. Yes, I realize you can buy a accessory door but it should be provided at this price point. A means of opening and closing the internal door to the laying area from the outside would be a bonus as well.

Great but not as big as the website suggests!
The chicken house and run is a great combination but I did picture it being bigger than it is. We have four chickens in ours and I would be reluctant to put any more in. Very sturdy, and although I don’t think it’s been tested (yet!), I would say very secure from Mr (and Mrs) Fox! Construction time a little longer than expected, there was three different instruction manuals and no instructions to say which one to use - so I made the house before the pen, then had to take some of the house apart again to fix the pen!! All in though would recommend!!
