Customer Reviews

I've noticed there are no reviews for the new Cube, so here goes! For many years, we've happily used the Eglu Classic and Eglu Go, but decided it was time for an upgrade. Our new addition is far more spacious than the other 2, and being raised, will undoubtedly be easier on the back to clean and retrieve eggs. The Cube takes significantly longer to put together - but that only adds to the sense of accomplishment at the end! Instructions are generally quite good, and thankfully, a few extra screws, clips, etc are included. The build quality far exceeds that of the Eglu Go, but falls just short of the seemingly indestructible Eglu Classic. We've always had issues with hens sleeping in the laying area, so the sliding door preventing access at night is very welcome. And I can't describe how excited I am about the automatic door opener due out in spring! The height of the run is perfect for young children to walk around in - and even a determined adult if you mind your head (and feet at the threshold). I was disappointed to find no accessories specifically for the new Cube available at launch - namely, the various run covers and winter jacket. I've gone with run covers designed for the original Cube, which obviously work, but extend further down the sides than they would on the original. Overall though, we're very happy with the product. Just waiting for our new hens to move in, but I'm sure they'll agree.

We are very happy with this clear cover, nice and simple. We've used it on our Eglu up run with extension.

We are first-time hen keepers who recently acquired three commercial rescue hens as pets. This coop was bought for them, and we have been using it for about five weeks now. I am not an enthusiastic assmebler of flat packs but I found that the house itself was easy to assemble although it took a bit longer than the guide time. The run was a bit of a nightmare to assemble - the clips were very fiddly and hard on the fingers, and I had not expected there to be some many small panels to put together. It took me ages and I had to re-do one side as I had made a mistake somewhere along the line. However, I am absolutely delighted with the finished product. The hens love it and it is very easy to keep clean.My two children soon got the hang of opening and closing the run door and the coop, and they love going out in the morning to let the hens out, feed them and check for eggs. I am glad I bought the wheels package as it makes it very easy to move the coop and run around the garden. I didn't realise to begin how to click the wheels into position but my 5 year old soon sorted me out. (He has been an avid viewer of the videos of the coop on the Omlet website!) Having the coop up off the ground makes it easier to clean and to collect eggs, and the hens also like sheltering under it if it is raining.It also gives them a bit extra grass if they are shut in the run during the day (they normally get to free-range) although we bought the 1m extension which I think gives them about the right amount of space. The hens took no time at all to get the hang of the ladder and take themselves to bed every night. I feel that they are safe in the coop at night as it seems very sturdy and secure. I also think the coop and run look great in our garden and several visitors have said the same thing. So, all in all, very pleased with our purchase and happy to give it 5 out of 5 even although the run was quite fiddly to put together.

Still building Go-Up coop run and I don't have my chickens yet but I wanted to write this to share first impressions and Omlets outstanding customer service. First impression: Adorable, practical coop as promised, easy to build! Customer service: Outstanding! Friendly, professional, and loyalty building. One box of four in our shipment was badly damaged in shipment- I presume it had a long journey to California. Scuffed coop frame. Kids and I fretted. Contacted customer service to report the issue and sent pics of the damage and they promptly and without question sent a replacement, with frequent email updates during the process. Clare in customer service could not be nicer, I am thinking of naming one of our chickens after her. Thank you Omlet, Clare and team!

Delighted with run. Glad I bought a full height one as my girls like resting on the roof of their coop using it as a sun terrace. Also prevents me having to stoop. Yesterday though the latch broke and slipped off in my hand. Awaiting a reply from omlet as to how to rectify this.

I found the clips to that attach to the poles very difficult and in the end resorted to black plastic ties which did a good job.A lot of painful finger tips I have to say.

Loved these and bought 2 packets very useful

Have moved swing around several times but at present ignoring it

I received this item free as part of my order. It's a real talking point but I'm not sure the girls have quite grasped what they are supposed to do! Maybe they only perform when they haven't got an audience! I can't wait to see one of them swinging away!

I received this cover as a gift following some issues with my order. It's not something I would necessarily have sought to purchase initially but I am now considering buying the full length cover for the winter. It's a great cover - I really like the way it lets some light into the run whilst still protecting my girls. It fits really well and I haven't had to adjust it at all since I fitted it.
