Easy to put together and is super clean and simple to use.

We bought this after buying a much cheaper wooden coop to get us started. That was fine for a while, until we got the dreaded red mite! We had no success in fully getting rid on them, and although Omlet is a lot more expensive than the wooden coop we brought, from our experience so far, it's definitely worth it. Whilst we still had red mite (not over run by any means, but they was still present in the wooden coop) we assembled the cube the day it got delivered. For the first couple of days, I cleaned out regularly using hose and jet washer (despite not seeing one of them in the cube at all after a few days) but just to make sure they wasn't carried over from the chickens. We never saw another one again (fingers crossed). However as this is a decent sturdy plastic, the jet washer does wonders (something I tried doing in the wooden coop, however the paint and wood peeled away from the power). We have the cube in a very open area, and it has definitely been put to the test with the weather. It hasnt budged with strong storm winds (nothing added to weigh it down), the colour is still as fresh as the day we got it from the summers sun glaring at it (only had it since about July/August though), and the last couple of nights, we've had freezing temperatures and snow. When I open the door in the morning, it is much warmer than our draughty old wooden coop, and the chickens love it. It took them 1 or 2 nights after first getting it where I had to help them get into it because it the ladder. We already have a fairly large run, so only ordered the cube and stand which is perfect for us. We have 6 medium sized hens and there's still room for more in there. Only 1 negative is that the nesting area doesn't have a sliding tray for when you clean it out, however, in my opinion, it isn't even when worrying about, compared to what we had before this. It's costly, but you get what you pay for.

Bought this for our grandson, and he will love collecting the eggs. Reasonably easy to put together.

Very bad design and this does not come pre built. I spent over 3 mins trying to squeeze inner sausage pillow in to bed after my wife threw the whole lot across the room in frustration. The pillow gets stuck in the zip and is too long. It will really strain your hands, fingers and patience trying to get this in. Buy a cheaper pre built bed.

Arthritic dog much happier with firm bed that doesn’t move when he struggles with getting up. We really recommend these beds for dogs with arthritis

I purposed the Eglu Go Up with wheels and 2m run a month ago after having a wooden coop, there isn’t even any comparison, the Eglu is and excellent product, looks good, fairly easy to set up once you get going, easy to clean and the chicks love it! At the minute we have 2 silkies in there but could easily fit a few more! I would never use anything but an omlet coop now! No problems with any predators either. Very sturdy and I love the skirt!

LOVE! my Omlet run! I had to save a little for my run but it was 100% worthwhile. My ducks are happy and protected in the run and we’ve had foxes visit with no problems so far. We screw pegged into the ground for more security and I’m very happy that these have bedded in well. It’s holding up to winds and all weather so far and the ducks will be in permanently for flock down over the winter. The stable door is a great feature and it’s really helpful when I’m filling pools and keeping the ducks inside the run whilst I’m busy cleaning etc. The locking mechanism is also great and prevents animals opening it from both sides. I only wish I could put padlocks on them so I bought some locks for extra security overnight and not at home. The look of the run really blends in well to the garden surroundings and pleasing to the eye. The height is very good, though maybe not necessarily needed as high this is no negative. The mesh is strong and sturdy, the upper level has slightly bigger holes in but sill proofed from foxes. If the mesh were narrower it would make an amazing aviary, perhaps this is something Omlet would consider in the future. Love this product! Don’t let the price put you off!

When I ordered the auto close door I don’t know if I didn’t order the correct attachment piece or what. However, when I opened the box and got out the detailed description of all the pieces I realized I needed something different from what I received. Omlet Support was awesome and very quickly sent me the one I was expecting. OMG! If you don’t have the auto door you have no idea what you’re missing. Even though I’m normally watching the process, (hens are very smart), from my window it’s awesome to watch the light and door work. The light comes on inside and the hens go into the coup. In about 5 minutes the light goes off and the door closes. The best part is it opens again in the early morning before I get up. The hens are happily scratching for bugs and ready for the day by the time I’m up. I had wild ducks for a while and had to get up before sunrise everyday to let them out of their coup. The auto door is great for my girls and for me too.

I actually bought a second for my eglu whose included feeder was not at all good . I put it at chest height and there is never any wet or wasted food inside or out. My feed lasts so much longer. Since I carry two at a time I would love if the inside end goes where a bit smoother but that’s a very minor gripe.

As much weather as we get in the PNW I thought a cover to keep the coop area dry but allow light /sun/ warmth through was a great idea. And it is! I put the perch out in the run and all my birds love to hang out in the run under the cover during a shower! The space stays dry and warm when the sun comes out. It doubles as a skating rink on frosty days which provides some entertainment for the birds and a giggle or two for me. Both my Eglus have one!
