I bought it for its design and prefer to pay extra for something that looks stylish than go for a cheap and cheerful. I have to say that I have 3 chickens in it at the moment and its great for cleaning out - and washign down. All its components are made of plastic and can be scrubbed down easily and it is small enough for me (female) to move it around the garden. I love the eggs that my girls lay and my friends love them too. Its a great way of thanking friends for their help because the present is unique and lovely. happy hen keeping I have an eglu and I love it.

Easy to clean, no maintenance problems and perfect for a backyard chicken enthusiast. The demographic the Eglu was designed for was city people with little to no yard space, not country folk looking to save money on eggs. I have expanded to a wooden coop in hopes of enlarging my flock but hate it. It's a pain to clean and I'm constantly dealing with moisture damaging the wood floor (despite water-proofing techniques). My "girls" prefer the Eglu, too. If someone wants to have chickens as pets (and they are great pets) with a bonus of eggs, it's worth it. If you're looking to save money - build your own . . . just realize there's a lot more maintenance. I have an Eglu and love it!
