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

I love the design, the features and its so stylish. It fits in really well in the garden, they have plenty of room in the cube and sufficient room to run around underneath. I love the convenience and cleanliness of the Glub and grub feeders and drinkers - much less mess and hassle. The trays underneath are brilliantly designed to make cleaning out easier. My worry was the there wouldn't be enough gap between the perches and trays to be able to clean it out properly but there is . I now have 4 very happy girls :-D

Proud new owner of an Eglu cube. Not only looks stylish but so easy to keep clean. Chickens love their new home and quickly worked out where to roost at night. Envy of our friends and neighbours!

My Cube is a good design. I'm pleased with the colour and design. I'm a little disappointed that it is marked in places which I would not have expected as it is supposed to be new. We certainly paid a 'new' price for it but it looks like it has been pre-used. If it was in a perfect condition, we could have rated it higher. We are a little disappointed from an 'aestetic' point of view.

Weighing far less than I thought it would, I have found that moving the Cube around the garden is easy. The ladder though daunting on the first night is now accepted by all the birds and they pop in and out without problems.

On the whole, from first appearances a good and product. Ordered for van delivery but was not informed that this woudl be 7 weeks until I rang for feedback. Changed to courier delivery and got product within 5 days. Went together well although instructions could be made a little clearer. Dissappointingly not all parts were in the delivery and 2 end skirts had to be re ordered. Having said that, the order was processed without query or delay and the parts are due in 2 days. Next step - chickens !

Fantastic product! I easily put it together single handedly and five new additions are very happy in their new home. Grub and glug great too, stops food and water getting in the way of their digging!

Chickens love it, we love it so easy to clean out very good. The chicks had a little trouble reaching the first rung of the ladder but after a conversation with Omlet who suggested putting a few bricks at the bottom to help them up they now have it mastered. Very happy and the girls are already laying eggs couldn't be more pleased.

The cube took us approx. 2 hours to set up. The instructions were good. Our four chickens have now been installed for approx 1 week and seem very much at home. Unfortunately, our dog is finding the birds absolutely fascinating but, in spite of his constant attentions, the chickens evidently feel safe and secure in their extended run and have not been upset by him at all. One small detail, my husband and I feel some sort of handle at the back of the hen house would make the whole thing just that bit easier to manoeuvre.

My only concern is that it does not fit snugley together so there are a few gaps which let the water in. I also feel that there is too much ventilation which allows the wind to roar through so I duck tape the main one up when the temperature is very cold and windy. Otherwise it is very easy to keep clean and so is not at all smelly.

It was delivered and put together last week, by a very nice, informative man. The literature sent with it is also good and very informative. We have ordered rare breed pullets from a local supplier and expect them in about 8 weeks time. Our only suggestion for improvement in design: two handles at the opposite end to the wheels, could make it even easier to move. The handles could be just above the litter trays, then the cube could be moved like a wheelbarrow.
