Verified Reviews for Eglu Cube^® - Large Chicken Coops with Runs

The cube is working out very well for the girls. Easy to clean and easy to move with the wheels. I use anchor stakes on the uneven ground. I would suggest some type of guard around the tires to prevent curious chickens from getting their little heads stuck in there.

We absolutely love our Eglu!! The chickens love it even more though! I was worried about the steps but they figured it out well, although they fly/jump in at half the time. Easier to put together than we expected, just a little time consuming, but that was expected. My only regret is not ordering the 4m run but we’re hoping to add the walk in run soon. I was on the fence about the wheels and soooo glad we got them. I can move the coop with 3m run by myself with no problems. Slide out tray and roost bars make clean up a breeze. We live in the woods with predator issues but they can’t get to the chicks and we sleep better knowing they’re safe and sound at night. Raccoons can reach in the run and knock the food off but can’t reach it or tunnel in despite trying. We put the food bowl in the nest box at night and close the door. Food and chicks are safe till morning. Extremely happy with our Eglu!!!

This week we have received our Cube and to say we’re made up with it is an understatement- I am so impressed with the build quality and the ease of access to all areas of the cube. We picked up our chickens last night and within minutes they looked right at home in their new Cube. They took to the drinker and feeder right away and even though it’s raining (!) this morning they look snug and cosy under the sheltered area of the run.

I love this coop. It is very safe for the chickens, wasn't terrible to put together and does everything you need a coop to do. Here is my review on my blog here: http://cathisgarden.com/my-review-of-the-omlet-eglu-cube/

I'm so impressed by our Eglu Cube. It wasn't cheap but the build quality and design is superb. The most important feature to me is the hygienic, easy clean & wash nature of all the surfaces. I would never buy a wooden house again having struggled with mites which hid in all the joints and gaps of the boards. There is nowhere for the mites to hide on the Eglu and cleaning is quick and easy. I'm certain that there isn't a better house available for healthy hens. The house is also designed very well for ease of use. Every area is easy to access with panels and doors. The droppings can be cleaned away in seconds and the house can be moved with little effort because of its wheels. Our chickens have the look about them of someone who is staying at a 5 star hotel! Well done Omlet!

The Omlet Eglu Cube is easy to clean. The plastic isn't porous, so it comes clean. I did take a brush like you would use for pots and pans up to the pasture because the water pressure I get there isn't very high so that helps get all of the poop off more easily. What else? I have moved the coop by myself, but it is easier with help. I have the two meter run. I'm thinking I may buy the Omlet Chicken Fencing to allow extra area for them to forage. They would be able to run into the run if any overhead preditors threatened. I think I would feel better about adding more chickens if they had a bigger run during the day. All in all I'm very pleased. I think the coop will stand up well over time. The girls like it. They are well protected. So there you go. Order an Omlet Eglu Cube. Gather the eggs. End of story.

I thought for a long time about buying the cube because of the price; I could have bought a wooden one much cheaper. I opted for the cube due to the durability, warmth and ease of cleaning but also it seems rodent, stoat and pine marten proof. I live in the Scottish Highlands and don't want my ladies cold is eaten. Purchase and delivery went smoothly and it was well packaged. The instructions for assembly are clear and easy to follow. Being on my own I was slightly concerned it was described as a 2 person job but it is actually very easy for one. It goes together quickly and feels very sturdy and robust. My hens took to it immediately, it is easy to access all areas and cleaning really is simple and quick. I would recommend it to anybody town or country. I didn't buy the run but feel that if you're a non DIY household the addition of the run would be simple and make hen keeping and fresh eggs accessible to everyone.

Very happy with the cube. It's a breeze to keep clean. I'll purchase a second one for 6 new pullets that will join the 7 hens using the cube. The only negative is that the auto door attachment is not yet available.

I wrote a review (Eglu Rocks !) around May which details our Eglu remaining intact after a large black bear infiltration attempt. In addition to the Eglu resisting the assault, Omlet generously replaced the dented wire run area and door ! Thanks, Omlet, for making a wonderful coop and having attentive customer service to match. Our family raves about the Eglu (for strength/durability, low maintenance, kid-friendly, etc.) whenever others are contemplating getting a chicken coop. Superior experience all around !

Eglu Cube is an extremely well thought out chicken house for our 2 beautiful chickens. Audrey Henburn and Yolko Ono have settled in very well. We move it every 3-4 days. It did take an afternoon to put together as we were unsure what we were doing but once we recognised all the bits and what they did another one would be a breeze.. The only thing we’ve noticed is the eyelets on the canopy are starting to rust already. Were extremely happy with our purchase.
