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

It's only when you start putting it together that you realise what a clever piece of kit this is, as well as being extremely sturdy and well made. I've been wanting a Cube for years and am not disappointed! Also my hens took to it straight away and in hot weather they go inside to keep cool. Although it's pricey, I see it as an investment and I'm sure it will last forever. We bought the version with no run, to go inside our existing home-made run - and therefore bought the Omlet stand for our "grub" containers, which proved to be the perfect solution.

Already noticed some rust and it is not even one month old. No pegs come with the run which to me was not clear in it's advertisement and was not even an option to order. This makes the run unsafe unless you emergency purchase tent pegs to secure the skirt down. Roosting bar as it is too slippery. Had to line it with cardboard and shavings for them to stay in coop to sleep. Also duct taped branches onto the stairs so they could climb it to get into the coop. Also too slippery. Perhaps when they get older these "cheats" will not be necessary but be aware that for young chickens (9 weeks) you might need to improvise a solution. On the plus it is very easy to clean and keep looking like new. The automatic door purchased separately is excellent. Very strong as well. I move it by pulling the run and it stays together.

Setup was a breeze. It took me and the wife about 2 hours to set up. Using the video made it simple. Seems like the Eglu Cube will last. We are happy with how roomy it is.

Set the Cube II up by myself. Took me a couple of hours but was fairly easy. It's a quality product, that's clear as soon as you get the parts out. I have also fitted the automatic door to mine which was very easy.

Had hummed and hawed about purchasing such an expensive house for my girls didn’t think it was worth the money. How wrong was i product is well built and is a great size , easy to clean also . Was worried about the steps thought they where to steep for the girls but they have mastered them well. House has a separate door on the inside for my girls to lay eggs this can be closed by sliding it along we tend to keep ours open to give the girls more sleeping area if they want it. The girls love it so do my other three girls who have started to lay there eggs in the new house . Well worth the money so glad i purchased also

Delighted with our purchase of the Eglu Cube. It was everything we hoped for and more! Our kids love checking on the chickens, collecting the eggs and cleaning out the coupe... long may it continue! I have to say that we also purchased the 3m run, which turned out to be too large for the space we had allocated (poor measuring on my part!) Omlet were superb in organising a return. Swift and first class service. Could not recommend them more! Fabulous from start to finish.

What an amazing product, this is now my second omlet cube and both set of girls love them, I already have a go up but the cube is something else ????❤️ The room they have, the seperate nesting section which can be shut off are all amazing I also got the run to go with and added on some optional extras and I’m happy to say I’m thrilled with all the items I have received ????

product is great but assembly instructions include only pictures, no words, and took 7 hours to assemble(beware) with extension and i'm not a newby. also concerned about hot temperatures so i think i'll be getting the automatic door. otherwise pleased with this set up.

Having got through several (not particularly cheap) wooden coops and been blighted by red mite several times, we recently took the plunge and bought an Eglu Cube. It’s brilliant - sure, had my wife not mysteriously disappeared when I was putting it together assembly would have been a bit easier (!) but I still managed it in a couple of hours thanks to the very clear instructions. We had to go through the usual coop change pain barrier of convincing our girls that this was their new home, and they were initially a bit unsure of the ladder, but within a couple of days they had settled in very well and look very happy in there. It’s certainly a massive upgrade for them in terms of comfort and appears to be completely fox-proof. Cleaning out is an absolute breeze too - I would almost describe it as a pleasure (although that may be a step too far...!) but it’s definitely incredibly quick and easy. OK, so it cost twice as much as any of our previous wooden coops but they were only lasting 2-3 years and this one will go on forever. Recommended without reservation- I wish we’d bought one years ago.

Assembling the Eglu Cube and run definitely takes time and organisation, but following the instructions carefully, it has come together nicely. We did find that the screw holes on the base did not match up to the front of the run, and after triple checking and taking photographs, I contacted customer services. I have to say I was really impressed with the service, as we were unquestioningly sent replacement parts the next day, and the 2-3mm difference in placement meant they fit perfectly. We also found that we had to attach a mount the opposite way from that shown to fit the automatic door. Now it is assembled, my girls and I love the house. Being elevated, it is easy to access and clean and it's very spacious. Overall, I think Omlet is a great company that cares about it's customers and products.
