Yeah, my sofa is fabric instead. Old leather one was bought because we thought easy wipe clean would be good. In the end it barely mattered and it doesn't feel very nice in comparison.

Both were bought from a charity shop, new sofas cost way too much.

I had a high quality leather sofa, beautiful, soft leather. It was all around great, super durable. However, when it was very hot, it was less comfortable than fabric.

It withstood my kids early years great.
