Leather FactsLeather furniture is hot to sit in during the summer and cold in the winter. It is true that leather interiors of automobiles do tend to get very hot during the warmer months. In contrast, indoor leather furniture will warm up to your body heat. During hotter weather, because of leather being a natural product and having the ability to breath, it will be cooling to sit on. Leather furniture is hard to care for. Leather furniture can be easy to care for if done on a regular basis. Do not use regular cleaning solutions (solvents, soaps, etc...). Immediately clean up spills that occur on your leather furniture. Also use a quality leather conditioner every 6 to 12 months. Leather furniture does not last over the years. Leather furniture is an investment in quality for life. Because leather is a natural product, aging will actually make your leather furniture more beautiful the older it gets when properly cared for. Kids and pets can destroy your leather furniture easier then other types of furniture. Unless your child deliberately uses a sharp object on your piece of leather furniture or your cat uses it as a scratching post, leather furniture is no more vulnerable to damage then other types of furniture. To give you added protection you can purchase leather furniture that has been treated with protective coatings. |
