I bought the Deluxe Chicken Coop and the Giant Walk In Castle. As with other reviews, delivery was fast and the kits were very easy to assemble. They have a one year warranty and that's about right, because that is how long they will last. The material is stained fir, which is not very water resistant and starts rotting fast.The biggest problems are the roofing materials and the nesting boxes. The nesting boxes start sagging after about 6 months and need support because they are made out of tongue and groove slats that are fastened by one screw each end. The roofs and covers of the nesting boxes are some cheap hollow wooden construction covered by asphalt paper and at the ends, where the water drips down, start becoming water logged and rot very fast. I replaced the roofs with Colorbond steel sheets and placed the Deluxe Chicken Coop on a treated wooden skid. If you are prepared to do that then you'll have a good chicken coop, but it will mean some added expense and work.
