ALEKO Metal DIY Walk-in Chicken Coop or Chicken Run with Purple Waterproof Cover 6.5 x 10 Feet

Putting this together will take a little time, but you won't be disappointed. It goes faster if you have two people working on it. That being said, it's really a great deal. It's covered on all sides and the roof in chicken wire. It's sturdy, but still light weight enough to move. Everything you need is in the box except stakes to hold it down. It's very economical and really not hard to put together. This shipper is very fast getting the order out as well.

This coop is exactly what I needed for my girls. The box came intact. There were 3 carriage bolts missing and we got a few extra pieces of some other hardware. The plastic ties work but they are not thick enough. The chicken wire was fine until the very end. The last few feet was all twisted. Didn't have enough to complete the door. Lucky for us we had some broadcloth left over from are current coop. It's sturdy enough but I think another support piece on the back wall opposite the door would be beneficial. The chicken wire is pretty thin. I suspect predators could get in if they really wanted to. My chickens will only have access during the day. Over all a good product. You get what you pay for. This coop (really not a coop) was on the cheaper side. It will work well to give my girls some extra room during the day when I am not able to let them out. Thank You

First off, my husband is pretty handy so he had no problem assembling the pen. I think it came with instructions but he didn't use them. I am scrawny so he added a wood frame with wheels to it plus a chair on a pulley. The netting, which appears like some combination chicken wire and rubber hawk netting is very sturdy. Because our hens are family pets, we will be be adding protective safety things- like drop down wood on brackets to cover any open space between the base of the run and the ground and also the little places around the door- but I think it will be a definite critter deterrent. We were going to build something similar with PVC pipe but this is stronger and better looking and I'm not even sure we could have beaten the price. Good luck with your chickens.

I saved up for this enclosure for a few months mainly because I was tired of having to build enclosures from scratch and it taking days sometimes weeks to finish. This enclosure looked and sounded like a great solution but it wasn't, especially for the price. Not only is it alot smaller than the description says but it took a week to build. The instructions are very vague and do not tell specific details. It comes with 10 bolts and nuts that are different sizes but doesn't tell you where to use the specific sizes, doesn't explain which direction the gate latch goes ect. I had to buy extra poultry wire because there wasn't enough included. The enclosure is wobbly at best and very time consuming. I chose this item out of many different options, wouldn't recommend it. Not only was it extremely time consuming and complex but as I said didn't include enough wire. The cover is very thin and cheap and there is a significant gap between the bottom of the enclosure and the ground. I had to spend $200 on extra materials to make this secure. If I had purchased this from an in store retailer I would be asking for a refund 👎👎👎

Item arrived with missing parts. Had to go to my local hardware store to pick up several carriage bolts and nuts to finish assembly. Also arrived with zipties that were too short to wrap around some areas of the cage that needed a more secure fastening and too few zipties to cover the entire cage at manufacturers recommended spacing. Poles and wire were easy to install but wire pieces were not precut or measured so the ends of the chicken wire ended up being sharp on the edges and had to use MORE zipties to secure edges around poles.

This kit is totally complete and easy to assemble. I did get a pinch or two but on it's behalf, I was not being too careful. The zip ties are not my favorite either but rather than use others or more, I wove the wire together at the seams. It takes a while but totally worth it. My girls (RIRs) absolutely love their new run and so do I. I am a little fearful it will blow away in a strong storm but am working on anchors. This run is definitely NOT predator proof. I put the chickens in their coop at night. In all, I am very happy with this purchase.

I don’t normally complain but I am very disappointed in this purchase. The box it came in was wet and damaged. As we started putting it together, the frame was first.. everything was great! We realized we were missing 4 bolts and nuts. I ran to Lowe’s to buy some. The ties that come in this package were barely long enough to tie the wiring to the frame. It’s already half way up now and we’re managing to “make it work” but am very disappointed. Smh

Great Product, and easy to assemble
