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

We have the Eglu Cube Large Chicken Coop With 9Ft Run And Wheels. Before ordering, we were a little concerned that the actual chicken coop might be too small, but we are happy to report it is actual quite spacious. It is bigger than it looks from the videos and pictures. There is plenty of room for our five chickens, and they take up less than half of the sleeping area when they are in there. The egg laying space is large, the doors provide easy access. It is very easy to clean, the tray comes right out, and while the tray is out being cleaned and drying, you can still have the chickens in there - it does not create a gap they could escape through, or that other animals could get in through. And if they do poop while the tray is out it just goes right through to the ground. We clean it with a power spray every couple of weeks. We got the 9th/3m run, which is pretty big. It gives them lots of room to peck for food and worms, and if we do need to go away for a day and they cannot get out, we do not feel guilty leaving them in there. They have enough space to run back and forward. It takes them about a week to peck away all the grass and bugs under it, but we move it every few days anyway. The wheel kit is great (if you like moving it around, which we do). We do find it is easy to move it in one direction by yourself, with the coop at the "front". To move it the other way, you need two people. But once we figured that out, we just moved it so the coop is at the "front" and we go around the yard in circles, so you can do it very easily with one person that way. We got the perch, and the chickens are still working out how to use that. It took me about six hours to put it together (one person) but it was not difficult. The instructions are very clear. There are a couple of spots where you need to get inside it to do up some of the screws. Overall, it is very good, it feels solid and well built. We got the sun shade, and we plan to get the winter cover for it too, since it snows a little where we live. We did look at many other options, and we read a lot of reviews and talked to a lot of people before deciding on this one, and we are very happy with it, and our chickens love it.

Safe and secure, easy to clean, stylish, and easy to move. Who could ask for anything more?

We love our Omlet. We rescued 4 ex-battery hens and they love it too. It’s easy to clean, secure looks great in the garden. It was simple to put together and the modular nature of it means you can add to it as you want. We already have!

After a terrible year of redmite and failing to keep my wooden coops dry I spoilt myself with the purchase of Eglu cube. It was recommended all over the poultry pages so I got myself one. First impressions are that it was bigger than I expected! I also had a little bit of bother putting it up when my partner failed to hold on to the side and it fell sideways ripping the bolt hole right out of the product! OUR fault entirely! We had found the instructions a bit baffling as they were designed for construction with the cage pen attached.....something I had not needed. OTHER than that I love it, it is so easy to clean on a daily basis and a thorough big clean will be a doddle....no more wooden coops for me!

brilliant loads of room and easy to move with the wheels

Love the design of the Elglu Cube, quite easy to assemble, and I like the way in which you can clean it out

Great product hens love it

I was skeptical at first due to the cost that changed to pleased once the coop arrived. I find the materials to be of high quality and the components well made. I'm glad we purchased this as it will last a long time and is very easy to maintain. Mobility is a nice feature. 4 large chickens is the limit IMO. Two features I would have liked to have seen are an access door on the rear of the coop fencing. Yes, I realize you can buy a accessory door but it should be provided at this price point. A means of opening and closing the internal door to the laying area from the outside would be a bonus as well.

The chicken house and run is a great combination but I did picture it being bigger than it is. We have four chickens in ours and I would be reluctant to put any more in. Very sturdy, and although I don’t think it’s been tested (yet!), I would say very secure from Mr (and Mrs) Fox! Construction time a little longer than expected, there was three different instruction manuals and no instructions to say which one to use - so I made the house before the pen, then had to take some of the house apart again to fix the pen!! All in though would recommend!!

a really top product easy to fit together especially with the help of the youtube films, only small criticism is the steps up to the couple being metal but soon made a wooden set which suits well
