Verified Reviews for Eglu Cube® - Large Chicken Coops with Runs
This product is garbage
I bought this 4-5 weeks ago for 4 chickens and it is literal trash. First off when I was building it the instructions were misleading and when I say misleading I MEAN MISLEADING! I HAD TO DISASSEMBLE THE WHOLE COOP AND START OVER 2 TIMES! The second thing is that box C did not come on time, I mean really, REALLY! The third and final thing is that the chickens were in the run, so I go inside my house and watch TV and from the corner of my eye, I see a HAWK ATTACKING ONE OF THE CHICKENS! I go outside and scare the Hawk off and I see that the chicken is injured. I took the chicken to the emergency animal hospital and they, unfortunately, had to euthanize it. So it makes me mad that Omlet advertises their products as "Pretor free." I mean REALLY! This is why this product is literal trash and for the money I paid for this, it's not worth it, also the time is not worth it either. This deserves 1 star for the lack of EVERYTHING it says it's supposed to be. Would not recommend it and would not buy it again.

Omlet response:
Hi Chicago,
Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We are very sorry and sad to read what happened to your chicken. This is unusual to hear that kind of misadventure as we are working hard in order to produce the safest enclosures as we can. Our runs, made of heavy duty steel weld mesh, and the anti-tunnel skirt, should bring extra protection against predators. Unfortunately, nature can be unpredictable and unexpected things can happen however I can assure you that your feedback is being taken very seriously and I would like to thank you for making us aware of what happened so that we can look at ways of preventing it happening again. I will let our directors know and we will therefore investigate for improvements.
In order for us to understand exactly how this could have happened, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us to investigate further about your specific case. We will try to get in contact with you as well so that we can understand how this happened precisely.
In regards to the instructions manuals, don't hesitate to have a look at our videos as well, showing how to install your product step-by-step. This can be helpful especially if you are more of a visual person.
We are sorry to read that you received some of your packages separately. We are dispatching your products at once, however it can indeed happen that couriers separate the parcels if their van is full.
We sincerely apologise again and we are looking forward to hearing back from you soon.
Yours,
The Omlet Customer Service Team
Robust design
Our flock is now wholly used to their Eglu Cube and we're delighted. Wonderfully designed and constructed, my only criticism is the advice that assembling a 3-metre unit would only take 3 1/2 hours - just opening all of the packaging and identifying components took that long! It is, however, a very clever design and easy to clean and keep the hens well fed and watered.

Glass half full
The housing of the Cube is very good. The run less so and the wheels are clearly a work-in-progress.
The main problem with the run is the skirt. Our Cube does not sit on a pristine bit of mown lawn but on grass which is less manicured; the result is that the grass quickly grows through the skirt making it impossible to lift it off the ground for moving. The wheels only work on a dry surface; in the wet they sink into the grass and impede any movement. Once we removed the skirt, movement was improved.
The individual wheel design is clumsy and difficult to use. The wheels need to be joined by a single bar to lift both at the same time. The wheels need to be replaced by wheels with a greater width. The worst element of the wheel use is the absence of any handles with which to move the cage.
Good luck in completing the design of a product which is presently promising but clunky and hard to use.

Hi John,
Thank you very much for that feedback, it has been passed onto our product design team for further evaluation.
We do already offer the possibility of adding handles on the side of the run, available on our website, which might improve the ease in order to move the structure in your garden.
Don't hesitate to get in touch with us if you have any other feedback that you would like to pass onto us.
Yours,
The Omlet Customer Service Team
Exactly what I was hoping for
I can tell this is very high quality and will last for a long time. My chickens are happy healthy and protected. I got 100% laying from the hens today. Yum yum!!

Excellent product
This is an excellent product. The booklets explaining how to assemble were clear and every part was engineered to perfection. We chose the 2 metre run - but if you have the room go for more. We have managed to attach other runs that we already had to the Eglu runs making it a more reasonable area for the chickens to move around in. Easy to clean out and after two days the chickens were very happily settled in their new home.

Slow dispatch, great coop.
I purchased the coop in March and did not receive until the beginning of August. It would probably be best to purchase before you invest in your flock, otherwise you may end up watching them outgrow their brooder and wishing you’d ordered sooner. Though we got it later than anticipated, it has still served us well since assembly. The girls go in at night and enjoy the ability to peck at fresh grass every couple of days.
