Does your vehicle have leather interior? Do you like it? Is it easy to care for?
(DH and I are looking for a new car and are debating if we should even consider leather seats. Everyone with an opinion seems to HATE leather...)

We both love our leather interiors. It's so much easier to clean than cloth. It's also easy to slide in and out of. It's durable too. If you have pets (I have 2 cats), their hair tends to get stuck on fabric upholstery when it's carried out by your clothes - that bugged me like crazy on my old vehicle. With kids, I imagine it'll be a lot easier to clean up crumbs and spills from leather, than absorbant cloth. (Especially if they throw up or they spill something smelly like milk!!)
Also if you live in a climate where it gets cold a lot of cars that have leather, also have heated seats. (Best feature ever!).

When I was single I had leather. Don't plan on getting leather interior for another 5 years at least!

I have had both with kids and I much prefer leather to cloth with kids. It is so much easier to clean spills, dirt on the back of seats from their shoes rubbing on it.

love my leather. one of the boys just spilt ice cream on the seat and all it took was a little wipe up and it was clean!

We both do. If we don't have leather in our next cars, we will have that neoprene-type stuff. Not standard cloth.

Both our vehicles do and we'd never go back. So easy to care for and stays nice! Plus heated seats and leather go together and I like having a toasty butt.

I much much much prefer leather. Wipe clean, dog hair doesn't get stuck in the fabric and kid stains to ruin it as easily. We had cloth in my car and leather in DHs.... never again with the cloth

Thanks, ladies. I think you may have convinced me to buy a car with leather!!

I do, and love it (especially heated seats in winter.) I think it's easier to clean up for sure.
