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

We had 3 ladies in an Eglu Classic we got to new chicks and upgraded to the cube. It’s just fantastic and the girls love it and it’s so easy to keep clean. The best thing is not a red spider mite to be seen.

It is everything advertised. Easy to move,varment proof,and easy to clean.

Bought my first Eglu Cube about 3 weeks ago. So happy with the product as are my six chickens. Really well designed and sturdy and makes cleaning and egg collection a simple process. You may say the Eglu Cube is expensive but maybe like me you will conclude that it is worth every penny. After Sales team at Eglu are also first class. many thanks. M

So this came in a couple of weeks ago. I've got the Cube with the six foot run. I managed to put it together myself. Each box comes with a manual, one seems to cover everything while the others go into slightly more detail on the individual area that is being built. I did need to hit a video here and there because some of the pictures aren't clear, but I managed to get it done in a day by myself. I think it was about six or seven hours. My chicks aren't actually ready to go out yet, but I have had a few test runs. The coop has remained dry despite some pretty terrible downpours, has withstood a bit of hail, and hasn't blown over in some pretty harsh wind. If you're out in the country like I am I would recommend locking the back door and the door to the nesting box. I kind of wish they would use the same lift and twist mechanism they use for the door leading out into the run because I think that would help make things more secure. I would advise getting the handles if you're planning to use this as an actual tractor. Especially if you, like myself, don't have the flattest land.

Received our Eglu 4 weeks after ordering. I was able to assemble it myself using the provided instructions and YouTube videos.. took a couple hours, but I also was caring for 2 young children at the same time. So far, I have 9 teenage bantam chickens in the Eglu and they seem to be loving it. I think it is very safe and secure! Very happy with our purchase.

I am a first time chicken mama, bought your book and then the coop. After the coop arrived, I had my family help with putting it together. I have 15 chicks about six weeks old and have ordered a much larger coop in the process of being built. The chicks have been learning how to climb the ladder this week and their antics are amusing to watch. I'm glad I ordered the OMLET because it will be a backup coop for future chicks.

We purchased our 2nd Eglu Mk 2 this year after finding our first was so much better than our old wooden coop. Its a dream to clean, stays more hygienic longer, People worry about the ladder but we have Isa browns and Australorps and both were able to get up and down no problem after being shown once. The light and auto door makes our life so much easier and the chickens go in on their own on time and we feel happy that they are safe and secure from the Aussie predators like foxes and quolls. Both coops easily fit a large rooster and 5 hens and could probably fit in 1 or 2 more if needed. Highly recommend.

This thing is designed very well and once assembled seems real sturdy. We are able to move it around using the wheel kit and really like that aspect. We have not put any chickens in it yet as we are currently shopping around for some. It looks like 6 chickens would be about the limit for this, but 4 would probably be a better fit. My wife and I put this together and we are accustomed to working together on projects. We could tell from the number of parts that it would take longer than the 3 hour estimate and it did. More like 7 hours. Everything arrived well packaged. It did fit together nicely and seems well designed. All in all we are happy with the purchase and if it keeps the numerous predators we have living around us out, we will be very pleased. It looks like it should be able to.

I finally received the coop after waiting 8 weeks! Definitely worth the wait! Our ladies love the coop! It is perfect! Wonderful product!!!

We didn't purchase the handles at first, but honestly it was a little cumbersome to move without them, even with just the coop plus 3' run. We then added another 3' extension to the run and it became near impossible to move without handles. So now we have the handles and they are working great. My only feedback is that the angle in of the handles makes the entry into the run really narrow. I realize this probably makes them easier to use, but I when I move the coop weekly it seems that entry into the run is more important since we use that daily. I also think the handles should be included in the product if you order the cube with wheels.
