What customers say
The Kartell Small Ghost Buster End Table consistently garners exceptionally positive sentiment, primarily driven by its iconic, minimalist design aesthetic. Customers frequently describe the table as a "perfect statement piece" that seamlessly integrates into various modern and eclectic decors. The transparency (especially in the clear version) is highly praised for its ability to add functionality without visually cluttering a space, making it an ideal choice for smaller apartments or tight corners. Reviewers consistently highlight the table's surprising sturdiness and high-quality finish, noting that despite being made of polycarbonate, it feels substantial and durable—a testament to Kartell's manufacturing standards. The table's versatility, often being used as a nightstand, side table, or even a pedestal, is another major positive point, often exceeding expectations regarding its practical durability and visual impact. However, the primary area of friction revolves around the perceived value for money. While design aficionados understand and appreciate the premium associated with the Kartell brand and Philippe Starck's design, some consumers express hesitation regarding the high price point for a product made primarily of plastic. Despite this cost consideration, the overwhelming consensus is that the table is a worthwhile investment for those seeking a unique, high-design piece that delivers strongly on both form and function.
