The Eglu cube is an excellent product. I am impressed by the quality of construction and the ease of maintenance. My chickens have had 4 years in wooden coops much closer to the ground and migration to the cube is proving quite difficult. Although they are happy and snug inside the cube, they really don’t ‘get’ the ladder and I have had to improvise steps to try and get them used to going up and down. I have 6 bantams and really wouldn’t like to have more than that in the cube. I think 6 full sized birds would be a bit tight. It was a two man job over about 3 hours to put it all together, but the components are good quality and the instructions are excellent. It is very easy to clean which is a major plus. I had problems in the wooden coop with red mites last year, but I don’t think they will be a problem with the cube as there are no inaccessible nooks and crannies. Overall, I am delighted with the cube and wish I had invested 4 years ago when I first started keeping chickens. I just need my pampered girls to fully embrace it now. Thank you all at Omlet

I researched a lot of options online, and decided to go with the Omlet fencing. So glad I did! It is durable, secure and good looking in that it doesn't draw attention to itself. This fencing has been a great solution to break my fenced-in back yard into two halves: one half for the hens, and one half for the dogs and humans.The gate is very cleverly designed, too, so that I have ready access to both sides of the yard. Very pleased!

Really pleased with my eglu which I brought second hand as new. I would like to say I use it for my rescue warrens hens. It is easy to clean, but I would like to soak the roosting bar as I find it a real mess to clean and I get splashed all over - and get back ache scrubbing it. Come on Omlet come up with a idea so I can soak the roosting bar - it doesn't seem you sell roosting bars separately for the cube? Also they find the metal ladder a problem getting in and out ! I've had to make one out of an old scaffold board and roofing felt !

Ok, the road to receiving this product was far from smooth (surprised Elodie didn’t self-combust because of all the problematic issues along the way!) but, oh my goodness, it was worth the extremely long wait! We’re far from lazy, but the advantages gained through not having to be around to let the chickens out or lock them away safely cannot be underestimated: how did we survive without this? Absolutely wonderful!

We LOVE ALL of our Omlet products. So easy to use and so well made~!

so ive been looking for a guinea pig hutch for a while because im getting guinea pigs for the first time very soon and this one seems so good..its expensive but its not too much trouble to buy..i cant wait to buy it and put it together (with the help of my dad)

The Eglu Run Handles are a must have if you are wanting to move the EGLU around easily. They prevent you from bumping your ankles on the longer assembled runs. The handles install quickly and can be turned outward or inward. They can also be positioned on the run to match your comfort height or position.

I have a mark 1 and now a mark 2, both with 3 metre runs. Mark 2 is very neat, I like the roof door handle plus slightly lower height so it is easier to operate from either side, and the new back door. I appreciate the new improved wire skirting, the rounded corners don’t trip you up, nor dig in when you move the whole unit thanks to the reinforcing strips. We are looking at putting reinforcing strips onto the mark 1 skirt to improve its manoeuvrability. Not sure about the horizontal split in the run sides and two piece door, the mark 1 seems sturdier and you don’t have so many clips to fiddle with, but then I don’t need to worry about it supporting the weight of a bear. My hens took to the new omlet even before I had finished building it and they like the new ladder, seems to be less of an effort for them. They are happily laying eggs in the new less draughty ( smaller draining holes) nest box. We are looking forward to the arrival of the automatic doors in January, no more panicking if I’m late getting home to shut the hens in. Thank you

The good points to this cage are that it looks neat, that you can see what your pet is doing, even when they burrow, the wheel size is ok for small rodents and it's easy to clean. The base comes apart, so we take off the front which makes catching our gerbils after they've had a run around my son's room much easier. The not so good points are that it could be bigger. I'd have paid more for a larger version. There are no air holes for the base, so they have to keep some of the upper floor surface as wire, which isn't good for tiny paws. I don't really like the tube, a ramp or angled tube would be better. One of my gerbils won't use it which makes this cage a bit pointless. I'm therefore going to have to remove the tube and add a ladder. All in all, it's ok but not the best design really.

We purchased an Eglu coop for our three hens, as their old wooden ark was showing it's age, and the maintenance was so time consuming. This coop is easy and quick to clean, and the girls settled in very quickly. We are delighted with our purchase.
