Love It or Hate It? Fish Art Coffee Table

The DLT Designs Fish Art Coffee Table ($50,000) is made of birchwood and MDF cast in epoxy, with 20 coats of finish throughout. It is remote controlled, battery operated, and has a spring-loading safety switch for its top insert panel, which rises to reveal a personal cocktail bar. It's shaped like a fish and also features a mono-print oil on canvas painting of marine life on its base and top panel. In the words of a co-worker, "It's the type of bad taste that only money can buy." But don't let that statement sway you.

    You know what?
    In some weird way I kinda like it...not love it...but like it.
    It's not ugly...and it's pretty expensive looking too!

    I think it would be cool in a funky bar... but not so much in someone's home.

    I feel like if I had this it would be the kind of thing where at a party it would be the "obligatory: everyone look and laugh" piece, instead of being a truly unique piece of furniture. I said 'hate it' because its too cheesey, even for my taste!

    I'm on the fence about this one. I can see it in someone's basement if it were done right, but at the same time, an automated fish?

    This could be cool if it were a bar and not a table and not in your house. I don't like it at all.
