Re: Leather Couches VS. Micro Suede Couches
We have a microfiber couch and my DH can't wait to get leather ones. I like my microfiber couches, they're soft and comfy to lay on...but leather couches wipe up fast with spills and they don't stain.

Re: Leather Couches VS. Micro Suede Couches
We "had" the micro suede..I thought it was very comfy & homey at first but it seems to look frumpy after a while... we just replaced it with leather,I'm much happier.

Re: Leather Couches VS. Micro Suede Couches
we have a leather couch and recliner. I prefer leather becuase it is easier to keep clean than microsuede. My mom has a chair that she has the back done in microsuede and if you brush up against it you can see the weave of the fabric shift and it looks messy. I love the look of microsuede, but I think it is a lot harder to keep clean. However, if I had pets I would do the microsuede b/c the ability to puncture the leather would kill me and I would just suk up the fact that I had to keep the microsuede clean.

That's exactly what I was going to say.

Re: Leather Couches VS. Micro Suede Couches
we have a brown leather couch- we love it- so easy to keep clean
if you get the micro suede- get the stain resistant coating- my sister got it- and she spilled coke- it sat on top of the fabric and she just wied it up- nothing happened!

Re: Leather Couches VS. Micro Suede Couches
I have leather in my den and would love to eventually get micro suede ones. I like leather, but I think fabric couches are so much more comfortable. Leather is really durable though, we have had that furniture for a while now and it still looks great.

Re: Leather Couches VS. Micro Suede Couches
We have a microfiber couch from Jennifer Convertibles and we LOVE it... so comfy and if the kids spill something it just wipes right up... personally I don't like leather because you stick to it, I like to lay down and melt into the couch

Re: Leather Couches VS. Micro Suede Couches
Our couch is microfiber and we love it. We have had it about 3 years and it still looks perfect. The only complaint I have is that it attracts pet hair, but it is easy to clean with a lint brush.
Here is a pic off of the website. We dont have the loveseat, 2 chairs instead. The color is stone:

Re: Leather Couches VS. Micro Suede Couches
I will never have a leather couch again. I hated being on a leather couch in the summer - it was one of the most uncomfortable things I have ever tried to relax on. We have had our microfiber for a few years now. We had it protected and any spills we have had cleaned up perfectly

Re: Leather Couches VS. Micro Suede Couches
Do you mean microfiber or microsuede? I 'm not a fan of the look of microsuede. We used to have a leather couch and loveseat in our old place and I thought it was very comfortable. My only issue was we have a cat and she would scratch it jumping on and off the furniture. We now just bought microfiber. Don't have it yet so can't say which I prefer.

Re: Leather Couches VS. Micro Suede Couches
I have leather in my livingroom and we luv it! Very easy to clean and comfy. We just ordered a microfiber couch for our basement. I can't wait to get it! I think they are both comfy!
