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

A lot of thought went into the design of this chicken-coop with run. I also have fitted it with an automatic door to the coop in light-triggered mode, so I don't have to go out first thing in the morning to open the coop or in the dark, to close the door (especially when it rains -- I am in Australia).

We bought this to house our 4 chickens which were in an small old wooden coop. This product is great for easy of access and cleaning, we have reduced our cleaning times by at least half with the pull out drawer and the plastic parts are so easy to wash down. The chickens seem to be really enjoying their new space and perching bars in the run. Thank you Omlet for a great design and ease of use. We would definitely recommend this product to anyone with chickens.

I was struggling so bad with keeping our coop clean! Now with our new coop it’s easy to keep the coop clean, the girls safe, and the eggs collected. One day I’ll have a huge walk in run from omlet with multiple coops. For now this is perfect. It held up under 2.5’ of snow and kept my girls warm enough no heater needed.

Everything has been considered. Not cheap but an excellent coop.

My Eglu cube was not easy to assemble. The clips do not work well in the cold at all and I was missing cable ties and clips from my kit.. It was a long drawn out process and very hard without help. When finally assembled my Pekin bantams were not impressed as they found the plastic far too slippery. They struggled to get up and down the ladder as it is very steep and slippery so took to flying - I have now had to install a long wooden ramp and they are much happier. They are also used to roosting at night so hated the main bit and slipped on the plastic. I now have straw and have installed a roosting perch. So whilst it is easy to clean I have not got away from the nooks and crannies to avoid red mites which was my aim. On the plus side it is very easy to move around the garden and the plastic is easy to clean. Please consider longer more gently sloping ramps with a non slip surface and some kind of roosting perch.

We love how easy this coop is to clean. We also love being able to move it around to give the chickens new bugs and grass.

Very happy. So easy to clean and move that I clean it out and move it daily. My chickens love it. Takes a while to put it together but it’s worth it. I did a review on YouTube.

Well thought out and designed chickens both safe and clean, good product

I wish I could give this 3.5 stars. In fact, If this was already assembled, I’d likely give it 4-5 stars. But… Although I knew it would need assembly, I wasn’t prepared for how much time it would take to put together the coop and 9 foot run. I lost track, but it probably took 8-12 hours, with a quarter of the time needing two people involved. Another downside is that it’s hard to move on muddy or uneven ground. There are no handle bars to lift the run, so you have to grab the wire to move the whole thing. It works to do this, but I worry about how long the plastic joints will last if I move it everyday (which was the point of purchasing this.) Not having a way to lift the run in order to move the whole thing, seems like a significant flaw to me. Aside from those significant issues, the coop itself seems super sturdy and very functional. It will be much easier to clean than my previous coops and I think my hens will be warmer through winter with this design. Also, a plus for me is that it all looks beautiful when it’s put together, which is very pleasing to me. The rain/sun shade works well and held up against 2 days of big rains and 30-40 mile/hr winds this week. Overall I’m glad I made the purchase, but I’d hesitate to recommend to someone else without making sure they knew the cons. P.S. I’d highly recommend getting a perch to put in the run. Without the perch, the run felt a little flimsy, but the perch really helped make the design more solid.

We’ve had the omlet cube for about a month now with no regrets what so ever! The things we love are- 1. The instructions were easy to follow. 2. It is so much easier to clean out compared to our cheaper bunnings one we previously had. 3. The cube is made from material that will not rot after 18 months. 4. The nesting box can be closed off during the night- this keeps it clean and free from poop. We no longer have to wash poop off our eggs when we collect them- they are beautifully clean:) The only con is that it took nearly 2 months to receive this after ordering.
