Verified Reviews for Eglu Go - Chicken Coop for 3 Large Hens

Once assembled the eglu go is fantastic! It looks good and is the coop is easy to clean. Our chickens love it and we love watching them enjoying their new home. However, it does need a few improvements in my opinion: 1. The run doesn't easily attach to the coop because of the curved roof, as a result we have slightly scratched the coop trying to put it together. 2. The door to the run is very small! This is mostly a problem when I go in at night to poo pick, I have to try and squeeze through the hole to get to the end of the run (and I'm very petite). I can see it being a real pain in about 6 months time when I have to clean out the whole of the run floor.

The human's love it, the chicken's look like they love it! thanks for a great produce but a little too pricy.

Can't fault quality and design but the run factory and the Eglu factory really should talk about the shape the run needs to be to fit the top of the Eglu. This is a flat and a continual curve when it actually needs to be a three stage curve to fit the Eglu which makes assembly a pain as the roof panels then don't line up. I have built 6 now and this has been a problem on all that almost double the time it needs to put the run together.

Our girls like the Eglu, and there is plenty of space in the Eglu and run for them to plock about. The Eglu is very easy to maintain - you can remove the tray easily for cleaning purposes. We also purchased the full length cover to keep the run free of rain. Construction takes a little while but is straightforward.

The shipper screwed up, mashed the run a bit, and Eglu replaced the broken piece, no charge and no problem. The Go unit is sturdy--far sturdier and held together better than the other plastic coop I looked at--and it's easy to put together.

I found the instruction booklet a little confusing, so it took me quite a while to get started on the assembly of the house. However once I worked out which side panel was which and which way round it went... it was pretty straightforward to put together. Give me a piece of furniture to self assemble any day! The run was easy enough to do and the 3 pheasants I have in there are happy enough. It is a very useful addition to my chicken/pheasant paraphernalia. Easy enough to move and use and I like the way the tray can be removed for easy cleaning and how easy it is to open and shut the door...I will be using it for my youngsters in the future.

My purple Eglu Go arrived with two friendly omleteers in driving rain and winds. Despite the foul weather, the two gents set the go up for me and we quickly settled in three new pullets. I've kept chickens previously, and bred both layers and table birds. I can safely say that the Go is the best coop I've seen. It's lovely to look at, sturdy and secure, and best of all it is a doddle to clean. The hens love it and they had both laid eggs and tucked themselves in for the night after just one day. My only comment would be to say the colour in the photo on the website is not totally accurate- it's a lighter, slightly pinker tone than the photos suggest, but still looks fab. Highly recommended.

The eglu is so easy to clean. It looks Nice in the garden. A Great way to keep chickens in your back garden.

After 'rescuing' an abandoned hen (don't ask!) we needed to find her a functional home for a novice to learn all about these wonderful creatures and to house the 2 friends we got for her (again, don't ask!). The Go was an immediate draw as it was the right size, seemed easy to clean and would suit our garden. We assembled and housed the girls, the following week bought the extension run and plastic covers and they are happily using all their mod cons and free ranging for a few hours a day too. The only drawback is the cleaning of the roosting bars ... they're messy little so and so's and the poop falls through but also sticks to them quite well, so a power wash is needed. Definitely would invest in a spare set of bars to make the clean up quicker. Cost is a factor, especially for the price of the extensions but taking into account the durability, it's plain to see where your money goes but as I'm now trying to persuade OH that a cube a couple more girls would be fantastic and easier to clean for a forty something woman as raised off the floor, lets see where this goes. Overall, a great starter henhouse :-)

The eglu go was pretty easy to put together and is nice and simple to use. My kids like opening the door to let the hens out. A couple of things that could be better: the feeder has pretty small holes so only 2 hens can feed at once and mine have big combs so have to push their heads through. The nesting box is pretty shallow and my hens managed to kick out most of the shavings each night.
