I'm Currently Feeling:  | we got one over 4 1/2 years ago and since then we've had 2 little ones. Its great to be able just to wipe it and with both little ones having reflux a cloth sofa would have been ruined by now.
I would definitely get one but dont allow shoes near it and get the best and ttoughest quaility of leather you can afford. I just make my little ones wear slippers in the house | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Leather is so much easier than cloth. we had a cloth one when nicole was a baby and it was a nightmare, especially when baby is on sofa and their nappy leaks!!! so not good.
Leather you can wipe clean, so doesnt matter about leakages, spillages etc... | | | | Status: Offline

| Oh god yeah, leather definitely, but buy the leather cleaner to wipe clean though because you can damage the leather if you use household products to clean.
We are on our second, the first one I used to clean with spray Dettol etc... and it cracked and peeled...We have lived and learned!
-The one we have now is in great condition as I clean it with proper leather cleaner now. Its also insured! | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | Wobbs, leather is great with kids. Especially the darker colored ones...black, burgundy.
We had one and it lasted great!
BTW, make sure you what you get is real leather. Some advertise real leather, but it's not. Or some have real leather in the back, but the seats are vinyl. | |
