At the time we bought our couch I'm pretty sure they threw the conditioner in "free".

I found some leather conditioner online through Ace Hardware, the reviews gave it a very high rating. It cost $11 including shipping...I don't know how long it will last,though.

You should ask them about it. I know it extends the leather's life. <br /><br />And by the way, your living room is gorgeous. Serene. I love what you've done above the sofa, it fills the wall space very nicely.Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11306810666140935903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-724796690088887546.post-77259666058129004482011-02-10T16:07:01.298-06:002011-02-10T16:07:01.298-06:00Monica, sadly, no I have never conditioned our lea...Monica, sadly, no I have never conditioned our leather officially...just use the leather wipes that are supposed to clean and condition.<br />Eloise...awesome deal!!!

I wasn't entirely convinced but my husband convinced me. We were SO SO lucky, we got a beautiful dark brown leather 3 seater sofa, the one we wanted to buy which was over $1600 new and someone on ebay was selling one, local to us, only 6 months old (he bought a new place and couldn't fit the sofa in!)...and we got it, with delivery, for $220!! <br /><br />Bargain aside, its so easy to clean, I really love it and its so comfortable too. One day will add the armchair and recliner too (we have our old fabric recliner and it still works so its staying put).<br /><br />Your sofas are really lovely :) You could always get a nice floral armchair for your bedroom, make it a nice quiet place for you to read and pray and just relax.Eloisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14861658737163842337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-724796690088887546.post-26685758890995134232011-02-10T13:14:02.962-06:002011-02-10T13:14:02.962-06:00I was dead set against leather.

You get the picture. Glad you have discovered the wonders of leather as well. <br /><br />Do you clean/treat/condition yours yearly? That will extend the life. Also a humidifier in your house during the winter helps with that (along with keeping nasal passages and throats much more comfortable).Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11306810666140935903noreply@blogger.com
