Common Leather Scams
- Bonded Leather: The biggest scam in furniture. Scraps of leather glued together with polyurethane. Lifespan: 2-3 years before peeling.
- "Leather Match" / "Gel Leather": Real leather on the seat, matching vinyl on the sides. The vinyl will crack long before the leather wears out.
