First saw this at the BBKA Convention 2025, fell in love with it straight away. Week later purchased one for our club, first day in the apiary it was put to use, never looked Bach, the build is fantastic as well as the service. I would recommend this hive every time

Hyde hives are a very easy company to deal with. The hive is very well built and will suit its purpose just fine, although I don’t have bees in it just yet. Delivery was prompt and the driver courteous and helpful. Couldn’t ask for more really.

Looking forward to testing this out this season. Quality of the hive materials and craftsmanship excellent. I particularly like the ability to move the division boards to unite colonies , or increase space for growing nuclei. I have a slight reservation about the slightly large gap between the closed floor tray and wall of the hive - though ventilation is important, insulation is scientifically proven to be critical , and in a windy exposed site like mine , I may need to make some adjustments to reduce this gap.
