No way,I found the ghost chair to be very interesting.I feel it can be put to some really good use and it can add a glow to our interior.The price is also quite affordable and it is ok for the stuff.Any way that was just a personal view.You can check out for yourself.Here's the link: www.regencyshop.com/p412/Ghost-Chair/product_info.html, and the preview of the chair www.regencyshop.com/images/ghost-chair-2.jpg
