I am new to this myself and after more YouTube than I care to admit on the premades I would don't buy it. I think I read it here that most of these prefab fit maybe half the number advertised at comfortably. I will admit my own fault was buying a smaller prefab before I got my chicks which I got double what it was said to hold, so I ordered a 10+XL from same company which is working great for as a grow out box while mine are still growing. It will not be big enough in the next couple months it might work as an oversized brooder next time.
If you are not able to build your own look on FB market for sheds to convert or coops from people that stopped raising chickens you can find some deals.
After spending too much on two small prefabs I am doing a shed conversion placed behind my garage close to water and power and will have a few Amazon chicken runs so they have plenty of room to run outside.
Location options how far will you need to carry food and water or run power if you want light.
Always remember chicken math is real! Go bigger than you need so you have room for the next chicks you NEED!
