mole Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 any reasons why? im curious as to what other people went for and why. i really like the orange one but wondering if it'll be too bright ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 A green classic - just because think it looks the best of the classics - would have also got a blue one. Have a red Go - so its different from the and it matches the WIR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franklyrabbit Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Bonnie & Bandit share a red eglu with run. Can't think why I chose red May be it's cos I'm sitting here in a red fleece, with bits of red furniture surrounding me and THEN when I look out of a window I see my lovely white Smart car, with its ... wait for it ... designer red interior Or .. may be it's cos it matches my eyes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 because it's the best colour. also because my OH wouldn't let me have a . I think it goes well with flowers and the greens in the garden but unfortunately it's not available in the shop at present. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poachedegg Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 We chose and then a - the chickens are girls, me and DD like pink and despite what people think it looks fab in the garden. I think orange would look really good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 They do specials for a period of time, it may be worth ringing and seeing if anything different is coming along. In the past there have been special colours of yellow and chocolate eglus as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 My first Eglu was a gift, and my friend chose purple because it was her favourite colour .. I could have changed the order, but decided to stick with it and I love it. It looks bright in the garden - no offence to those who choose green, but it's not a very natural green, to me - and it is a perfect match with my Jackmanii clematis when it flowers! I've had a Cube and now back to an Eglu again, but purple is best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 I choose it because I love the colour purple, it looks lovely next to my clematis armandii plus most of my plants are purple in the garden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

furball Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 I have a the third one i have had, this time its for keeps as nothing is as good as an eglu for ease of cleaning and style.
