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

Just bought this product it’s amazing easy to assemble my chickens are loving it. Excellent packaging and good quality Very happy customer

The coop is excellent!! The wheels are hard to manage and the run is ridiculously flimsy. There is no where to grip in order to pull or push the coop when trying to move locations. I love the coop but the run i absolutely regret.

We've had our Cube for a few months now, and I am very pleased with it. I move it every couple of days to fresh grass (still waiting on those handles!!), and with the 9 foot run, there's plenty of space for our 6 birds. I've since added a perch, which the birds love, and which adds to the space by giving them an option to be up about 18" above the ground. I also added a 4' x 6' tarp I got off Amazon over the run; fits perfect. I attached it with tiny bungee cords. It keeps the whole run dry and shaded. We let the birds out every day, so they'll wander in and out as desired. Out=r birds aren't laying yet,, so the side door has been great for storing their food and treats. I especially love how easy it is to clean. Here is the secret: get yourself the little lunchbox sized pressure washer at Lowes. It makes quick work of cleaning the droppings tray and roosting bar. I clean the coop every 3 days or so, because it only takes about 5 minutes. I keep a thin layer of pine shavings in the tray, mainly so all the droppings slide right out, give it a quick blast with the washer, hit the bars, slide it all back in with a new layer of shavings, and good to go. Also love the end door for checking on the birds at night, giving them a couple of quick pets on the head.

I acquired more hens and needed a bigger hen house. Although not as easy for one person to assemble as implied, it has proven to be a good investment. It is safe for the chickens, easy to clean and makes egg collection simple. Very good product and I don’t imagine I will ever have to replace it.

We purchased the Eglu Cube after wind damaged our traditional style coop and the foxes got in. Traditional coops are difficult to fox proof and need constant maintenance to keep them fox proof. The eglu is off ground, so foxes cant get in and the automatic door with coop light worked a treat. The chickens took to it straight away and wander in before dark each night where they are locked up nice and safe. Putting it together is a task. I would say a little harder than ikea, but the instructions are good and it comes together solidly. I didn't get the wheels and regret that. The coop has a lot of weight to it which is good because it's not going to blow over in the wind, but moving it is a pain.

We love our Omlet with the automatic door. Very confident its keeps out Hens safe and secure from predators. So easy to clean as well. It is a little difficult to move sometimes if on uneven surface. We wish the handles were in stock as we see this making all the difference. Highly recommend even without the handles.

Coops easy to clean and comes with a laying box Run starting to break

I absolutely love this coop. It is so cool looking in my back yard. I got an extra extension, but now I wish I had purchased the large walk-in, because I cannot get into this thing to get the chicks. I have to fish them out with a net. Also, even with nine feet, it seems like a fairly small area. The waterer & feeder that came with the coop did not work for me. I purchased hanging versions & used the ones that came with the coop for flowers on the run. :-) Also, the ladder would not work for my Silkie, so I purchased a 42" dog ramp covered with astro turf and it works perfectly. Shipping was very slow. Still waiting on another automatic door that I purchased for a friend.

We haven’t used it yet with chickens but it was easy to put together with very clear instructions. Looks good and we look forward to the obvious ease of cleaning in the future.

All of the features sounded good on the website but it is actually awkward and not nearly as good as I expected. It was difficult to assemble and reaching the food and water containers is almost impossible. In retrospect, I think having a coop built would have been closer to what I had in mind.
