With some modifications it could make a good temporary quarantine coop for one or two birds.
It amazes me that these manufactured coops always have more nest boxes than the number of chickens the structure will house. It won't need more than one nest.
That is proof right there that they are designed by someone who knows nothing about chickens.

"OVERALL DIMENSIONS: 43.25" L x 36.25" W x 49.50" H"

It's tiny.
Those dimensions show that the coop itself, not including the nests, is only 24" wide.
Barely enough room for a roost....interior is conveniently not shown in ad.

It might work for a few birds, for a few months.
But plan to spend the summer building a larger coop...winter is brutal in ChiTown.
My birds spent the last week inside the coop because of the wicked weather.

Not to mention that those are exterior dimensions. Not interior where it matters. That makes it less than 7 sq. ft.. Barely large enough for two birds.

I only plan on getting 3 chickens but breed unknown still I plan on getting very winter hardy birds leaving sort of close to Chicago, if they’re good handle cold do I have to lock them up?

It's okay to get you started. You will be much better off building your own coop. Or trying to get a hold of an old shed you can convert.
These pre-fabs are generally not worth a fraction of the price they are sold for.
As @chickens really said, they are good for short term isolation use only.
I have one that is contained within an electrified poultry net to keep it more secure from predators. They are flimsy. Me in a bad mood could rip it apart with my bare hands and my steel toe boots.

That would be assuming it was constructed with 2x4 lumber. It isn't. These are made with furring strips.

Go for it as long as you are happy with the price.

You’ve gotten other posters pointing out that this is small, not greatly fortified. However, you’ve never had chickens and this will provide you with the opportunity to see if you like them/enjoy them, etc. Once you get s handle on this experience, you’ll be able to decide about a different coop based on some experience. There is a coop section on BYC, lots of great ideas for all sizes and kinds of coops.

My elderly neighbor moved here to have a better garden and a 1-floor home. He got a prefab coop and soon realized that something bigger/taller was better, but keeps that prefab coop in the run, and the chickens enjoy it for the shade, to explore etc. it’s actually still in good condition after 2 summers and winters. He’s considering getting a few more chicks, and his pre-fab will be great for the post-brooder/pre-flock introduction phase. Btw, his bigger coop is just a plywood “box” that is about 7 ft tall, backed up to his shed (protected from the main winds), covered in some kind of rubber-like roofing material, popdoor at bottom, random branches for roosting, a few open top nest boxes. Functional, but not eye catching, hens produce eggs regularly.

I got it for cheap and we’ll add an extension on it! We saved lots of money so it leave a lot of wiggle room what else do you think I should add, I live close to Chicago so ideas on keeping to coop warm without a light

Honestly, your chickens will do fine, even at low temps in a draft free coop. However, in arctic blast weather, you could always bring them into a garage area that is still cold, but more protected. With only a few chickens, it would be relatively easy to do, even using boxes or laundry baskets for short term/keep out of -40F temps + windchill for a day or 2. Some people simply bank the snow around the run area and/or coop since snow is a great insulator.

 

[chickens really]

Prefabs are not draft free Coops in any shape or form..

IMHO, most of the pre-fabs I've seen don't have enough ventilation.

My home built chicken houses are drafty by design.

 

[Nellydog]

I plan on adding more ventalation and where There’s drafts like under or above the door I think there will be a draft I’m cousin says he thinks he can do weather stipping of sorts like how car doors are
