We love the classic feel of this chicken coop. It took us about two days to assemble but it’s got a feel to it that it will be in great condition even if our great-grandkids are using it. It really has attention to detail and care for quality that is refreshing. The wood is all solid wood, none of it is compressed, with rubber mats inside to protect the wood. Our cheaper coops let in water during heavy rains, but the metal roofing makes us hopeful that it will keep things dry. Wet chicken mess is not only gross but attracts flies and pests. The large door to the chicken run will make it easy to extend the run if we decide to do that in the future. If you have any sort of green grass, trees or garden nearby, it’s going to look beautiful. I think the yard actually looks better now that we’ve added this chicken coop.

This is a beautiful chicken house. It's in direct line of sight from our pool and patio so we needed a chicken coop that looks nice. I would say that the assembly is definitely a two person job but once we got the hang of it, it was a fun project. The instruction manual kept us organized. The day after we finished the coop we had continuous wind of over 50 mph and the coop had no issues at all. An automatic door with solar power is included which is convenient and keeps our chickens safe when we need to go out of town for a few days. Our neighbors will still check in on the chickens but if everything is working they won't need to do any work at all which is nice. One thing I did not notice until move in day for the chickens... the perch is placed in a way that the chickens can look out the little window while they are perched which they all did. So every morning they can look out the window and watch the sun rise. Adorable!

The coop is very cute! We have 5 girls in it. It took a few hours to put together (2 people) and the directions were really great! Everything was clearly labeled and all supplies were provided - zero issues. Definitely recommend it!

We're honestly really happy with this coop. The instructions were pretty straightforward, but having two people definitely made the process way easier. My wife and I worked on this together and we're still together ……so thats a positive. Since we're new to this, it felt like a really good starter coop—not too complicated or overwhelming. Overall, we'd definitely recommend it if you're just getting into raising chickens.

I've cooked on a lot of equipment throughout my career, and I can honestly say the Argentine Santa Maria XL has been a pleasure to cook on. The fire control is intuitive, the build feels solid, and it delivers the kind of live-fire experience I was looking for. I've already put it to work cooking for family and friends, and it's quickly become the centerpiece of my backyard. It gets people talking before the food even hits the grill. If you're passionate about cooking over wood fire and love bringing people together around great food, this grill is absolutely worth it. Chef Jerome Grant

This XL Argentine Santa Maria grill is an absolute game-changer! From the moment I fired it up, I knew I'd made the right choice. The craftsmanship is incredible, super sturdy, and it holds heat like a dream. Every steak, every chicken, every veggie comes off with that perfect smoky flavor and sear. It's truly a 5-star experience for anyone serious about grilling!

This was our first chicken coop, and we couldn't be happier. It was super easy to put together, and everything fit together smoothly. Most importantly, our chickens took to it right away and seem really comfortable and happy. Great quality and a great experience overall—highly recommend!

I searched for a Santa Maria for a while and was between this one and another one that was twice as expensive. I ended up getting this one and just put it together today. First, with something this large I was expecting to have to drill something out, look for extra bolts/ parts and have to wait to use it. Everything was there and it all bolted right together. I put it together by myself and it took a total of three hours with a few break worked in. The quality of the grill, the metal, and wood exceeded my expectations. Going to fire it up for the first time tomorrow and can't wait to use it.

There are a lot of thoughtful touches in this coop. The solar powered door is so great for saving time, the roosting bar is high, which gives me a little extra comfort for safety, and the mats on the floor are nice for an easier cleanup. The metal roofing and metal wired windows and run also feel great for durability. This is a bit of a beast to assemble. Definitely allow for a couple of days dedicated to putting it together. You absolutely need two people and experience with power tools. We were a little too heavy handed at time while tightening our screws and split the wood a couple of times. The pieces of the nesting box sometimes didn't connect how they seemed they should, and we had to get a little creative to make it fit together properly. If you are planning on keeping your chickens in the run at all times, I wouldn't put any more than 4 chickens in this coop. The run is tall, which is great for adding some extra enrichment activities, but otherwise small all things considered. I recommend for people wanting to have fun with backyard chickens and see a beautiful coop out of their window. Expect to make some adjustment and reinforcements as needed while caring for your hens.

Solid coop with high quality materials. The mesh is strong and predator proof. The rubber mats and automatic door are thoughtful touches. It is extremely sturdy and affixes to the ground well. Lots of room for my chicks and they enjoy the space. It is difficult to put together and when they recommend two people you definitely need two people. A power drill is also a must, and I am short so I also needed a ladder to take care of the roof, so something to keep in mind. For new chicken owners, this is a great choice - I would just recommend to put down hardware cloth at the bottom to keep out digging predators if you have them in your area. That is not an issue for us. I may be adding a roosting bar - the one provided seems too high up. But maybe the chicks will surprise me and use it!
