The box set sold 134,000 copies in the United States in the first week. However, due to its price per disc falling below Billboard's minimum required price, the box set was deemed ineligible to chart for its first four weeks on the Billboard 200. It was the top-selling album of the week, and would have ranked No. 2 on Billboard 200 if it had been eligible to chart. Brooks' Christmas album with his wife Trisha Yearwood, Christmas Together, was released in the same week and debuted at number 11 with 21,000 units.

It later debuted at number 13 on the Billboard 200 in the chart dated December 31, 2016, and number one on the Country Albums chart. The following week, it peaked at number 6 on the Billboard 200. The album has sold 554,200 copies in the United States as of December 2017.
