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

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.

The Eglu Cube is a great investment. I have 5 chicks and this was a perfect size for them. I feel very at ease knowing they are safe from predators but also seem happy in their home as well. Only downside was the assembly took 5 hours and that was with 3 people doing it! But it was worth it in long run. Great product, attractive too. Highly recommend!

Absolutely love it, am very happy to recommended it to my family. From the smallest (grandchildren) to the oldest love our Eglu. So easy to keep chickens safe, get lovely fresh eggs. And keep there little home clean. Thank you Omlet.

I recently bought this Omlet Eglu Cube with the 3 meter run with wheels and this is definitely a well thought out chicken coop! My wife and I saw this on display at a local pet expo and thought it would be great way to keep chickens humanely in our backyard. I really love how you can close off the roosting area from the nesting box area, you can close and lock the door to the run when the chickens go to bed at night in the roosting area, and you can easily access the nesting box from outside. The best part is probably the removable poop tray and roosting bars. Based on the looks of it, my chickens tend to poop more when they’re sleeping then when in the run. But thanks to how this coop is configured, when the chickens leave the roosting area for the run in the morning I can easily hose off and clean the poop tray and roosting bars. I have the Eglu Cube coop with the 3m run and although it is rated for 10 hens I have only 7 in my coop and they seem to have plenty of room to run around in the run area. Chickens don’t all lay their eggs at the same time so even if you have more chickens than can all fit in the nesting box at the same time, they’ll figure it out amongst themselves on the time of when to lay. The water and food trays that are included are easily moveable for cleaning and refilling - though the water tray gets constantly dirty due to the large open top design. The coop also comes with two doors (top and bottom) - my only gripe with this coop is the manner in which the doors are attached, which is via plastic clips that I wonder how long they’ll last for, but they can also be easily replaced, and how the doors secure which is via a thin metal rod. It definitely works, but for the price of this coop I’d expect something a little more robust. Also, for the price of the coop, it came with zip ties to secure panels together, which is is just a little disappointing... I’m pretty big (6’5”, 275 lbs) and I am able to crawl into the coop if I need to get my chickens - it isnt super easy or comfortable, but it’s doable. And I’d imagine if you’re smaller than me it’d be a whole lot easier. I am fairly handy and while this was relatively easy to assemble, it did take me longer than the suggested 3 hours to assemble by myself. All in all, this an expensive chicken coop, but it feels like it’ll last a lifetime and it very easy to clean (which was important for me) and this is a mobile/moveable chicken coop (which may be important depending upon your municipal code). I’m super glad I went with this coop and love going out to my coop to watch my chickens everyday.

Unique design & very sturdy... Hens settled in well & mastered the ladder quickly. Very pleased with item but not as pleased with Omlet! After having waited 5 weeks for delivery (which was apparent when purchasing), when it arrived one of the boxes had never been dispatched (immediately apparent & a very obvious mistake on dispatch). This has happened not infrequently to other reviewers. Customer service via phone were fantastic & rectified it very quickly, however I also had dealings via e mail with another employee who was very poor. As Omlet had inadvertently delivered an extra box we had to get it returned. It took 4 attempts for them to organise a collection by the courier. Product really fantastic but customer service disappointing

I have had my eye on an Eglu for awhile as having chickens has been a dream but I was always concerned about predators and being able to handle a coop as a single mom. I have purchased two hamster cubes from Omlet previously and know the quality. I am so happy with the Eglu Cube with run and wheel package. It was easy to put together myself (no kidding!), it looks great in the yard, super easy to clean and (my 12 year old does it without being told after watching me do it once) best of all my new girls love it! We live on central Florida so it’s the rainy season but the girls are nice and dry. I alone can move the coop around the yard. I did have a need to call Omlet customer service before delivery and I received top notch service and no hassle. I ended canceling my order then ordering the larger cube which was delivered within the week. The only suggestion I could make is to add storage to the design. We currently use the nesting box side for treat storage which has been great but will need to use it for nesting in a few months. That’s it no complaints whatsoever! I love the accessories we have the swing, the feeders are awesome and am looking forward to purchasing a roost as well as the automatic door opener.
