Cube
Very robust and "looks smart". Not too difficult to assemble, but needed to use "brute force" to bolt some bits together. Once run attached, impossible to access ladder to clean. Would be useful if run could be unclipped easily.
Certainly is not effortless to move around - takes 2 of us to move it. Our chickens love their new home, and are happily laying eggs.

Eglu Cube
We had considered getting a normal chicken ark or similar but decided that they were expensive (£150+), keep requiring treating and difficult to clean. As a result, we selected going for an eglu Cube which although they are 3-4 times the price it will last 10+ times longer than a timber one, not require annual treating. It takes approximately 2 hours to put together but is relatively easy. The only reason we didn't give it 5 stars are: no removable tray in the nesting box which makes it harder to clean, the Grub and Glug containers have hooks on the reverse which are not long enough meaning that it is too easy for the chickens to knock off, and thirdly, the ladder ends approximately 1 foot off the ground which is fine for 'able' chickens but for battery chickens, as we have, they don't have the strength or understanding to be able to jump or fly up - perhaps a ladder extension should be available for purchase? Overall though, very pleased with our puchase and exceptional customer service from Omlet.

improvements.
I am most impressed with my cube. My hens took to it straight away. Because I needed to put it behind my shed I found that the fox proof guard at the sides would have been better hinged like the front and back. The door could be a bit bigger, I find it hard to get in to clean the ladder etc. A perch of some kind would be nice for the chickens to sit on which I have had to buy it lifts them off the grass and gives them a break from each other.

Construction of cube
I'm very happy with my cube, a very simple and attractive design with good construction drawings, but found some of the tolerances of the molded panels to be tight and need a lot of force to be able to line up for the installation of fixings and the roof panel does not fit as well as I would have liked with larger gaps at the front than the rear, I think most woman and some men would struggle to construct the cube this is why have have given it a 4 star rating.
