FAQs on Leather Sofas

1. How long will a quality leather sofa last?

A well-crafted leather sofa can last 15-25 years or more with proper care. The hardwood frames in our collection are built to provide decades of support, while premium leather upholstery actually improves in character over time.

2. Are leather sofas practical for homes with children and pets?

Yes! Leather sofas are surprisingly family-friendly. Unlike fabric upholstery, leather doesn't trap pet hair or absorb most spills, making cleaning much simpler. For homes with pets, consider our protected or semi-aniline leather options which offer additional resistance to scratches and marks.

3. What's the best way to care for a leather sofa?

Regular dusting and occasional conditioning with appropriate leather products will keep your sofa looking its best. Position your leather sofa away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent drying and fading. We provide specific care instructions with every purchase.

4. Can I buy matching leather armchairs or footstools?

Absolutely! Many of our leather sofas are part of coordinating ranges that include 2-seater sofas, 3-seater sofas, armchairs and footstools, allowing you to create a cohesive look throughout your living space.

5. Are leather sofas comfortable to sit on for long periods?

Yes, leather sofas are comfortable, but they may feel firmer than fabric options. Many modern leather sofas are designed with plush cushions to offer a balance of support and comfort for extended sitting.

6. How do leather sofas perform in different climates?

Leather sofas may feel cool in winter and warm in summer due to the material’s non-porous nature. However, many people find leather to be comfortable year-round with appropriate care.

7. What’s the difference between full-grain, top-grain, and bonded leather sofas?

Full-grain leather is the highest quality and most durable, offering a natural look. Top-grain leather is slightly less durable but smoother and more uniform. Bonded leather is a more affordable option but less durable in the long term.

8. Do leather sofas fade over time when exposed to sunlight?

Yes, leather sofas can fade when exposed to direct sunlight for long periods. It’s best to place your leather sofa away from windows or use UV-protective treatments to prevent sun damage.

9. Does a leather sofa have a strong smell when new?

New leather sofas may have a natural scent, which usually fades over time. If the smell is strong, airing out the room and using a leather-friendly deodoriser can help reduce the scent.
