Just purchased the large coop to replace two cheap, old, falling-apart coops... the difference is even more dramatic than I anticipated. This is a solid, well-constructed structure that will probably last 5x as long as the ones it's replacing. My chickens will be thrilled!

I am very happy with the chicken coop. There are a few things that can make assembly easier for you. First, there are trim pieces at the end of the short walls that form a slot into which the ends of the longer walls fit. I had to pry the trim loose to get the long walls into the slot. Second, there were three short 2x4's attached to the short wall on the floor assembly. You need to pry them off or they will get in the way of the long wall with the laying boxes. This is not on the assembly directions and it cost me a lot of time trying to get the long wall fit properly. I had a 1/2" gap at the ends of the long wall until I figured this out. I can only assume they are there to stabilize the short wall during shipping. None of the pictures or videos show the 2x4's being on there. Otherwise, it looks to be a great chicken coop.

I really like the quality of the coop. There are two things I had to do that would have made assembly much quicker and easier. First, there are trim boards that form a slot at the end of two of the walls. I had to pry them loose to fit the two longer walls into the slot. Second, there are three short boards attached to the short wall on the floor section. The wall with the laying boxes sits on top of that short wall. There were three short 2x4's on the short wall that are not shown in the directions. I can only assume they are to stabilize the short wall during shipping. You will need to remove them or the laying box wall will have a 1/2" gap at the corners. This is not in the directions and it would have saved me about an hour of aggravation trying to close the gaps. Otherwise, it is great.

I ordered the large coop and very happy with it. It was super easy to build. My wife and I put it together in about 30 minutes. The quality of the coop and the ease of putting t together makes this a win. The only complaint I have was there was some slight cosmetic damage that occurred during shipment. I would recommend they put a cover sheet on the top to help protect the finish or turn the top panel with the finish side down when crating it. Great coop and the chicks are already digging it!
