You've done an incredible job building your new home and I absolutely love it. It's proof that having an over abundance of things doesn’t make a house a home, it's the love inside that does that... It's obvious how much you guys love each other... You've raised two beautiful children and I'm excited for your future.

      I agree completely with what you said, but....
      Would you agree that they made a really bad decision to remove the onsite grid power. The best thing they could have done is have a grid tied solar power system with battery backup. That way, they could draw power from the grid when needed. Now.... they will have to either upgrade their energy storage at great expense, or bring back in the electric utility at great expense.

I can’t express how much it warms my heart that you are finally at a point where you get to enjoy your hard work, relax a bit, move on to things you want to do instead of always striving to complete what you HAVE to do. What you both sacrificed to achieve this life is inspiring. Congrats on your beautiful home and family. I look forward to following your journey as you continue to share.

    Hey kids; You might reconsider a T.V. in the bedroom. We have one but seldom do we watch TV shows. Mostly we have "white noise" videos going, the Northern lights w/soothing music, rain and thunder, blizzard sounds w/ crackle fireplace. My wife and I are old now and have bouts of sleeplessness. These thing help with that greatly.

    We all knew at the beginning of this journey, your home would be amazing. You definitely didn't disappoint. Your home is beautiful, inside and out. What the two of you created with just your own blood, sweat, and tears, while bringing two dogs and two babies into the mix, is just incredible. All of the animals (with the exception of the snakes), are a joy to see. I said in the beginning that most couples would not survive the ups and downs the two of you have survived, and come out on the other side with a love and marriage that is stronger than ever. I'm sure you're both swelled with joy and pride with the knowledge and accomplishments that you've gained during this build. You have so very much to be proud of! Thank you for taking us on this journey with you. I can't wait to see what the next journey will bring your way.

    Having been here since episode 1 this episode raised some strange emotions. Happy tears that you are finally finished your dream home but sad tears for the same thing because how are we going to get our weekly fix now? Spencer must have been so full of pride knowing that he overcame all the challenges of complex tasks that he had to learn from scratch and did such an amazing job. Throughout Mackenzie pitched in to help with everything while becoming an accomplished video producer and giving birth to two great kids. Over a million of us have been witness to the most incredible project ever, learning so much valuable information at every stage. I can only imagine how vital this has been to anyone thinking about building their own off-grid shipping container home. We can only hope that you guys find another project to take on that we can follow with the same joy. Congrats to you both!

      I'm hoping we still get "the days of our lives'..without the drama of course lol. Watching the kids grow, any changes, Spencer's next 'hobby' lol.

Many contractors wouldn't have been able to match it. I think the most incredible thing is that your family will be able to grow up in something you built with your own 2 hands. And you'll be able to watch them grow up in something you built. Of course Kenzie cannot be overlooked with looking after 2 kids and helping build, vlog and edit the videos. You guys make a formidable team and an awesome family. It's been fun watching you guys grow together during this process.

      Please make sure that you build one room, that is NOT a container! Like they did with their living room - the favorite one. Don't get me wrong - this guys did an absolutely amazing job, but, living enclosed in steel is NOT good... Your body gets detached from the electric and magnetic field of the planet that we need to be connected with. Containers form a kind of a Faraday Cage... No surprise their favorite room is the only non steel one...(apart of one wall)!

    Can't believe it has been 4 years. .. I remember I started watching your channel about the time you had the concrete foundations for your house done. I really appreciate the perfection you were striving for and attention to detail in the build, and I also have to give the same credit for the video production and time put into your videos. Well done guys. You are a good team that complements each other in terms of skill, passion and vision for your future. I know you will go from strength to strength. ..

    WoW! Guys, to say this is a job well done......is quite an understatement! Remember: your children need to have you take lots of pictures, and record so many storys: they will have to pass all that to the grand kids. You did quite the job you two! Magnificent! Absolutely special, perfectly planned, and so well thought out!

    I'm 67 woman, and I built a home with family and builders help 35 years ago, it was a huge growing strong process for me, after my marriage failed. Making a home is the best skill to make you appreciate what hard work brings back to you...wish you well little family... New Zealand 🇳🇿

    Spencer and McKenzie my God, you have done a phenomenal job in building your home.
    You have built yourselves an absolute paradise. I am so happy for you guys beyond belief. I'm old enough to be your parents and I cannot express how happy I am for you two. I wish my wife and I could have done what you did when we started back in the 90s but the whole container home thing wasn't an option.
    I love to build myself so I envy you Spencer. Never, ever take what you have built as a young man for granted. You created a sanctuary for your family.
    God has blessed you and I love how your wife supported you every step of the way... even when you got very frustrated. I'm sure you let out that frustration off camera 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
    You've learned invaluable experience that noone can take away from you. McKenzie you learned video editing on your own where you can have your own business doing that.
    We all appreciate you showing your home to all of us. I love it. It's not about the size. What you've accomplished is worth more than a mansion to live in. As a man this brings me to tears! 😂. But tears of happiness for a young family.
    Never let go of of each other and stay together because life is all about family, nothing else. In the future you will be able to sit down with your children and grandchildren and watch these videos and share and enjoy what you've done with your lives.
    May God continue to bless your family 🙏

      Wowwwww! Saint Germain said more than a mouthful! But, he is absolutely RIGHT! I pondered about what I could say to express how I truly feel, because I too, have been here for the long haul & I tell you, I can't begin to say it as well as Saint Germain has, so thank you Saint Germain for saying it so much better than I ever could have, because they're my sentiments exactly, the only thing I would change in his comment is that, I wish my husband & I had done something like this. Spencer & McKenzie, I have come to love & admire you two as though you were my very own. "Congratulations" on a job well done!!!

You are an inspiration to those of us who would like to try the same thing, I only wished that you would have given us a price point or the overall cost of the build. Maybe I missed that part. It would be crucial to know, that way we could calculate the cost to see if we could even begin such a project.

I'm 60, it's taken me this long to get halfway good at interior design. I started with antique and collectables but mostly don't like anything I did have, no longer have, am now right with your thinking and have gone (as much as budget slowly allows) to a far more neutral pallet, fabrics can change out over time, and art!!! loving the art I'm slowly acquiring.. your outdoor views stand as art as well, just gorgeous!

    Since that first video you had a vision and we watched in awe as you both worked so hard to achieve that end goal .
    Spencer became a hero in learning so many difficult building trades and Mackenzie’s editing skills captured it all for us to see .
    I remember my first comment about dreading hearing your outro music as I didn’t want it to end and found that everyone felt the same .
    Now you have completed, your house looks amazing and surpasses all thoughts of what I imagined it would look like .
    I’m so happy that you are happy with your home . That’s all we need to know . Now I hope you take some time off and have a lovely holiday somewhere exotic and on your return I selfishly can’t wait to see what you decide to do next. X

    Several things..first the obvious: your home is absolutely beautiful and so well-planned. Second, I live in a 1800 sq foot home with such wasted space that you have a LARGER kitchen…same size bathrooms..and BETTER floor plan; I have an inordinately large primary bedroom which is bigger than my great room (ridiculous waste of space) and a poorly designed “great room” which is NOT great. My weekends are consumed sweeping, mopping, and maintaining this home that is much larger than I need. Amazing..you have 1000 less sq feet and your house is far more functional with extra room in the important areas (kitchen). Lastly, I hope you both realize how inspirational you are to those of us you share your videos with. I’m soon downsizing and have sketched your layout for inspiration for my new home. You are a lovely family ♥♥♥ thank you!
