Verified Reviews for Eglu Cube® - Large Chicken Coops with Runs
Just right for us
How I would've loved to have one or those super cute hand made coops, I had ideas. But my husband is not Bob the Builder, and none of the ones to buy were big enough or would last long enough for the price, so he let me buy this. Our chickens are real, "back yard" chickens. We have kids toys out there, a raised bed garden, sprinklers. I couldn't be more pleased with this coop. It is perfect for us, simple enough for my kids to help in the care of the chickens, keeps those girls warm at night. The chickens love the coop and they started going up there starting the SECOND night they were outside. We just have to wait until 8:30 and they are all in there for us to shut the door up. I can't comment on the laying of eggs because they're not there yet.
The only thing that I have a problem with is that moving the coop is quite difficult. What makes it difficult is the predator guard around the edge of the run. If there was a way to lift it up while using the tractor it would be so much easier. If there is a way, I'm missing it and it's really hard to figure out. I also noticed that Omlet sells handles to make this task easier. Either way, I am planning on removing it since we do live on a suburban area and any digging predators around here (foxes, raccoons, skunks maybe) come out only at night when the chickens are safely inside the coop. I love that the quality of the coop seems to be very good, much like our Lifetime swing set, and will last a very long time, so the expense will be well worth it.

Kid Friendly
Our family loves our Eglu Cube. My oldest son who is 4 helped put it together! We really like how my children are able to help maintain it. The style of it is appealing and it is more than functional and easy to open and close!

Excellent product & customer service
I was nervous ordering this due to brexit and it is a lot of money, but the customer service and communication was excellent. The henhouse is top quality, absolutely no regrets. The run in fine but I would like the mesh to have been a tiny bit heavier for strength. But overall it’s a great package and works really well, easy to clean, easy to move, hens love it.

Easy
I wanted to get chickens but I didn’t want to learn much or build my own coop. Although the Eglu is a little pricey I was happy with how fast the shipping was and how easy the assembly was. I just got the chicks two weeks ago so haven’t put them in there yet but I’m sure they’ll love it. Might add the electric door later.

Easy to build
This chicken coop is made of quality materials and so easy to build that I had my 13 year old grandson do it for me.

Very nice, however a total pain to put together
We bought this for 6 chickens. Two Orpingtons and four silkies. The coop is very solid, the production time to put it together was terrible.
Directions were not easy to follow.
It took my husband and I close to 4 hours. IF you have the time, and enjoy projects together on a sunny afternoon it is perfect.

Thanks for taking the time to review our Eglu Cube Colleen. Your comments are extremely helpful and I will certainly pass them onto the rest of our team!
Nice home for my chicks
I like the product ,but the directions were difficult to follow and it took a LONG TIME to assemble. We bought a smaller unit 7 years ago and didn't have near as many problems.

Hi Karen. Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review!
I will certainly pass your feedback onto the rest of my team. It's always really useful to find out the area's in which our customers are struggling. Asides from this, it's really great to hear that your happy with the product itself.
Love the Cube!
As new chicken owners, we originally purchased the Eglu Go. After having our chickens for nearly a year, we realized that it would be great to have the autodoor feature, but the autodoor doesn't work on the Go. We decided to upgrade to the Cube so we could add the auto door (and add more chickens, of course, since it's larger!). Now that I've been using the Cube for a month I realize how nice it is to have the larger coop with the seperate nest box area. It is so nice to have it up off the ground, and it is easier to clean. My advice to new chicken owners considering which Omlet coop to get: get the Cube (and add an auto door.) You think it's a lot of money, but it costs even more when you buy the small one and then want more chickens and end up upgrading less than a year later! :)
