Verified Reviews for Eglu Go Guinea Pig Hutch with 3ft Run - Leaf Green

The Eglu is fantastic for our two Guinea Pig's. They can cone and go as they please and the actual Eglu is warm and spacious. They are definitely much happier than in their wooden hutch. It's really quick and easy to clean and you can just wipe the plastic. Only downside is the water bottle keeps popping out. It comes with two water bottles, sun shade and bowl. Well worth the money.

I brought two Eglu Go guinea pig hutches, one with a 1m run and one with a 2m run. I was lucky enough to live in the delivery and home set zone, so no assembly difficulties for me, and my pets were enjoying their new homes in no time at all. The back door on one of the hutches has been problematic i.e. the fastening mechanism is very stiff and reluctant to turn, so Omlet are sending me out a replacement by express delivery - no hassle, no arguments. I call that excellent service (and the delivery and set up gentleman was excellent as well). The hutches and runs are well-designed and a joy to clean. I'm so glad I made the investment.

This is a great hutch for my three guinea pigs but I've had to buy a conventional hutch for the winter as the rain was driving into the hutch and the run was waterlogged. It would be useful to be able to raise the hutch off the ground perhapswith a ramp for the piggies to get some exercise. When the weather cheers up they'll be resuming residence.

Great home for my 3 guinea pigs. They would probably benefit from a longer run in the summer, 1m is not quite enough for 3 animals. Happy to know they are safe from all predators including our dog! Not quite as easy to clean as the video suggested, but all in it's a fairly quick job. It might also benefit from wheels of some sort as it needs moving every few days to allow the guinea pigs access to new grass.

Although it takes a bit of time to build initially (approx 2 hours) once built, the Eglu Go guineapig is a very safe, fox/cat resistant home and run in one. The fact that it allows the guineapigs to come and please, in and out of the home and run section, is excellent, especially as their most naturally active times often do not coincide with when they may be put in a traditional, separate run. It is excellent to see them grazing and exploring at various times of day and night. I love the fact that the run has a metal grid to the bottom (for safety) however this does come with its own issues: when placed on the grass, the bottom sits above the actually ground meaning the guineapigs feet could get caught. To overcome this, we use a mallet and thick tent pegs to push the base as deep as we can, which minimalises the space between the metal grid and the ground. Our pigs don't seem to notice however without the pegging down, this would be a problem. Also, sometimes the door in the back catches in the frame and needs quite a hard pull to open. Overall this is an excellent product compared to the cheap wooden alternatives. It's long lasting, easy to clean and (most importantly) I believe provides the pigs with a happy and safe environment.

Great for having a pet which lives outside.

Bought for my daughters birthday. Easy to erect, and really easy for her to clean out the Guinea pigs on her own.

Great product as easy to keep clean, keeps the guinea pigs dry and does not rot. Pity it was such a pig to build though! Hutch goes together quite well and looks great (although Omlet - please sort out those unsightly sprue marks left on the outer panels!). However the cage is practically impossible to build if you follow the instructions. A short call to Omlet sorted the issue - top tip: build the run completely first and then attach to the hutch. Fiddly but not impossible. Apart from the build experience and the cosmetic issues on the panels I cannot fault it.

Fantastic hutch, a dream to clean. Guinea Pigs seem very happy and secure. Very little mess, have the cold weather liners to use in winter too. The only downside is the outside. You can very clearly see several whites spots on it which do detract from the look of it all. I rang Omlet and was told it is where it has been held on production. I queried that the dots are not on the pictures on the website but was told that they are visible on the site. Well, if you zoom in MEGA close you can see faint dots on Some of the products but not all, and only on very close inspection. Sort out the look on the outside and it would be 5*!

Excellent product and hoping for years of service. Well designed and made, not quite straightforward to construct and the rear and front top mesh run covers had to be re-shaped to fit correctly (designed in Britain but made in China). Only suggestion would be a handle to assist in the moving of the hutch and run. Can't fault it but think half the price would be more reasonable.
