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

We found an old Eglu Go on Facebook marketplace accidentally and got hooked. Here we are, six months later, with the larger Cube model with 12 foot run, automatic door, wheels, and handles. We are so satisfied with the ease of use of this product! Moves so much easier than we imagined around our yard. Our kids are so excited too! My husband went from being doubtful about getting any chickens, to wanting to expand our flock of 4 to include 7 this spring.

This is the third Eglu Cube I have purchased. I have 2 roosters with crossbeak and they have one each since they continue to fight each other. Would highly recommend.

I brought the coop 2 week ago and straight out of the box you could tell this was a quality product. The build was easy and went together a dream. Now it looks ace in situate and is homing our 3 chooks. Love it!

While the cube has some great features, the directions are very challenging. Overall I really like the cube and it seems to work very well for the chickens.

We had someone else put it together! We had a couple of chickens in it the next day. This is perfect for keeping chickens in a clean environment!

Satisfied. My daughter and I are new chicken owners (Spring 2022). We have 6 hens. They moved in our new Eglu cube / walk-in run combo ~3 months ago and, from what we can tell, they love it. And so do we! Easy. We do regular changes of the dropping trays (2-3 days) and deep cleanings ~once a month. Eglu's material and design make it easy. Confidence. Both the coop and the run are predator-proof. The combined use of both makes us feel very confident that our chickens are safe. We have hawks, coyotes and raccoons, all of which are known to prey on chickens in our area. I even saw a red fox spying on them one morning but he could only give them a scare, not eat them. Aesthetic. Well, it all looks pretty cute. A nice addition to our backyard. Pic enclosed. Service. One of the run panel was damaged during shipping. Omlet sent a new one. Reliable.

We have assembled the Eglu Cube and it is almost ready to welcome our girls. Since the auto door is on back order we will not attach the top until it is installed. It was so much fun working on this project together. Great quality and very sturdy, I like being able to make it to our specific needs. It can be moved but will probably remain in place for at least a year. We have coyotes, raccoons, dogs, cats, snakes, barn owls and several hawks in our area. Probably some water dwellers too since we are near a water source, so it was important to us to add 1/2 hardware cloth up the sides of the 13' run. We placed the run next to an old unused dog lot and added aviary netting. We think we did okay for our needs in the city.

I bought this about a month ago, and so far it's proving to be a solid coop. Some of my hens do not like the roosting area, they prefer to be able to lay down in bedding but the roosting area is all bars to roost on. I just put some hay in the back half so they can lay there, otherwise most of them want to sleep in the egg box area. I'm not going to lie, this coop is a bear to put together. The instructions do not specify for instance that you have to put the run together BEFORE you finish putting the coop together, so I had to take it apart once I found a youtube video to explain that. Also, the parts were numbered incorrectly, so locating which part I was supposed to be using wasn't always easy. The part would have one number on it, and the manual wouldn't show any parts with that number, the number wouldn't exist, so I had to match up the pictures. They must have changed numbers with a new manual and mis-printed. I would expect with the expense of this coop that it would be seamless, it wasn't. Also, the run is held together with twist ties and plastic clips. I was shocked to see this, when I consider how expensive this coop was, I would have expected that Omlet would splurge on stainless steel ties at the very least, not plastic. I don't expect the plastic to last long in the Florida sun. For this reason, i give the run a thumbs down, it doesn't feel safe. The coop itself is safe and strong and user-friendly. We are going to change out all the cheap zip ties to stainless steel and hope for the best on the run. I am wondering if we add on the larger walk in run, if it will be help together with cheap plastic zip ties and plastic clips as well. That would be very tough to set up, and for the high cost of the walk-in run, I would expect more. This will be a factor in whether we bother to expand the run with Omlet, or go with a much less expensive chain link, that will be held together with stronger material.

Was tricky to build on my own, but now it looks great and I'm sure my chickens will be really happy and safe in it.

We love this coop! This was an upgrade from the wooden one we built when we first got chickens 6 years ago. It was decent, but after 6 years in the elements, it needed to be replaced. But with two little kids, we needed something simple to put together. This coop was easy to assemble, the chickens love it, and it seems easy to clean! It feels like it will hold up to the elements well too. It took two adults and one 3 year old about 4 hours to assemble (and that includes time looking for the screwdriver when it had to help blow bubbles in the strawberry patch)
