leather sofa vs leather look

[mollycodle]

do leather look sofas smell like the leather ones and are they just as comfy thank you

Any reason for specifically wanting leather look ones, as you can get leather ones just as cheap.

Leather ones last longer & are easier to look after care for, my mum has just brought a brand new leather one & this is the advice she was given when looking at both. They said the leather look ones start looking old & used after 1 yr & need to be prperly cleaned etc but the leather ones can just be wiped over with a dry cloth!

I have a leather (cream) my friend had a black leather look (black) her's looked horrible v poor quality. would go leather everytime, as long as u keep on top of cleaning them they're fab.

(MIL's had her one for about 15 years and it's still going strong)

We have an old-fashioned leather one - cheaper than many of the leather-look ones we saw, and will age better.
I doubt a non-leather sofa would ever smell like a leather one!

hi does any 1 know what the leather are made of please do they smell at all

If you mean what are the leather-look ones made of, they're made of a form of plastic, often vinyl, and some of them do smell a bit plasticky to start with.

hi can u getanything stop them from smelling of plastic do they stick to u and feel cold

I think the best thing to do would be to go to a sofa showroom and test some out - you'll get a feel for price, style etc as well as practical things like if they stick to you, smell etc.
Happy shopping!

real leather doesn't it's cool in the summer but warm in the winter so it's nice.
