We had a bit of a persistant problem with red spider mite in a wodden coop so just bought Eglu Go without run. Very easy to assemble, looks like it will be easy to clean as well. ordered coop on Sunday evening ask when to expect delivery Monday told should be Wednesday arrived 12.00 Tuesday. Can only say what a fantastic delivery service (well done parcel force). Assembeled in half an hour, good build quality and good assembly instructions (I can only assume that those that have struggled have not used the instructions and probably didn't have the correct tools to hand?). The chickens took to new Eglu Go like ducks to water they couldn't be happier! just a small sugguestion could something like a lazy susan be added to your range fro rotating coop in confiend spaces to make maintainance easier, going to DIY something for my self soon but would have purchased had such an accessory been available?

Having been used to a wooden coop and finding it a bit of a chore to clean out I am absolutely delighted with the ease in which I can now clean them out and in a fraction of the time the raised height also makes it a lot easier to tend the "girls" especially for those of us that bending up and down has become rather challenging. The "girls" seem very happy in their home I can think of nothing negative to say about it at all it is brilliant.

My original review is dated 27th July 2014. We've now had Eglu Go Hutch (with our 2 guinea pigs in it) just over a week and notice two design flaws, which if corrected, would make this hutch a '5 star' product in our view: There needs to be a door in the first panel next to the hutch on either side, for access to clean the run and front of hutch. A two-meter run (essential for happy piggies) WITHOUT this extra door, makes it near on impossible to clean near the hutch door, such as removing droppings/wiping down; I've had to crawl, commando style, into the door at the far end and do the job this way - not sustainable with a hutch that has to stay put due to space restrictions in our small garden. We are seriously considering creating a door ourselves by cutting the wire (any alternative suggestions please???). Secondly, there needs to be two hooks, one either side at the bottom, at the front of the hutch, to secure the heavy duty full length cover (with existing lower bungees) so that rain doesn't soak the entrance/exit used by the piggies. Their run is dry but not by the hutch door, so they're understandibly reluctant to make use of the big run and lush grass (which they love). I have managed to pull the cover just enough to create a small overlap to help overcome this (and hook the bungees under the anti-predator skirt just beyond the hutch) but it was a struggle....... We still really like this product and so do the piggies (which is what really matters) but it REALLY needs this extra door plus hooks for the rain cover.

Really makes the whole run very easy to move around. I have the extra 1m extension on the run, and can still move it by myself. Well made.

Great addition to the run. Keeps hens dry.

Easy to erect. Baby bantams love it. What more can I say!

I love the glug. It makes keeping the water for the hens simple and easy.

We are new to hen keeping and decided to invest in a cube with 3m run. It is fantastic! Easy to put together (take your time to read and do it following the directions) super simple to clean. The only modification I have made is to add tree rounds under the ladder as steps up so the hens can step up to the ladder instead of jumping. It did take the hens a few days to get use to the ladder as at first they were slipping off it. Happy hens! Thanks Omlet!

Overall, this is a good product, but for the very expensive price tag, it needs some improvements. The hutch itself is fairly easy to construct and seems robust; access through the back door is great. It is staying cool inside during this warm weather so that is reassuring. However, I feel the hutch could do with a kind of protuding 'lip' at the top and front to offer more rain protection at the point where our guinea pigs exit it into the run; it would really benefit from an overhang. We bought the 2 meter run which is VERY big and so an excellent feature, however, it was incredibly fiddly to construct and I had very sore thumbs and fingers after clipping it all together. I akso found the panels that go along the top side do not fit well and so I had to bend them quite a bit to get a good fit. I also feel the corkscrew pegs ( that I had to buy separately) should come included, as there are ESSENTIAL to keeping the run predator-proof. So although I would recommend the Eglu Go Hutch and 2 meter run, it needs Omlet to 'tweak' it.

My hens love their cube, and I love the ease with which I can keep it clean for them. Much easier than their old wooden henhouse.
