nobody really answered the ? about the leather. Is it or isn't it totally leather including the woodgrain look section ?

The black is leather and the wood grain is a shiny vinyl. It's very stylish looking. I really like it and I think you will also.

i believe the only part of the cover that is not leather is the woodgrain sections, have had this cover for about 5 months, no disappointments!

The dark grey part is leather. not sure though, what kind of leather. The woodgrain may not be, but it looks good. I gave it as a gift and the recipient loved it!

This sofa is bonded leather. I too was hesitant about buying a leather sofa online sight unseen...but I have been nothing but pleased with this. I have had it for over a year now and am very pleased with the wear so far. It has a contemporary look but is still comfy. I even bought a second ottomon to go with another sofa that I have. Hope this helps.

No, it is not "real" leather. Some distributors are calling it Bicast leather which is described in Wikipedia as " A material made with a split leather backing covered with a layer of polyurethane that is applied to the surface and then embossed. Because it is only used for the backing, the leather portion of this material is generally not visible in finished goods made from Bicast. Bicast was originally made for the apparel industry for glossy shoes, and recently was adopted by the furniture industry. The resulting product has an artificially consistent texture that is easier to clean and maintain, as is the case with most plastic materials." That being said.. I am still quite happy with this purchase. It is holding up well to my grandchildren and my feet are propped up on it every night and the padding always returns to it's original form. The wood is not the highest quality out there but then neither is the price ;). It is perfect to have around the kids and just not worry about..and still look good in a common area.

It looks and feels like leather, but, I do not think that it is. And, there is no mention that it is so, on the box. But, it has held up well, and, we are happy with it.

It doesn't appear to feel like actually leather. This item was purchased for my son and is really for display purposes, which seem to be fairly expensive. The mounted displays that I could find are more expensive then the sword. Good Luck.

It's Top Grain Leather everywhere you touch and Split Leather on the sides & back. No bonded leather. It's 100% leather.

Hi..honestly, I'm not exactly sure but I do not think it's leather. I'm sure it's vinyl. Does it matter what the outside is? I absolutely love mine!

Def not real leather. It's a plasticky shiny material. It's quite stiff too. The packaging doesn't say for sure what it is. And there is no smell.

It feels like a type of felt and leather .........I really like mine and it is holding up really well.

I just got mine and I dont think so. Its nice, seems well made but, leather I dont think so. No smell, doesnt spot with water, mink oil sits on it and doesnt soak in and the edges are way to nice for leather. Not to mention the liner. Its made to look like suede. That would be over kill with real leather. Then there is the price. It would be a Class A knock-off in one of those places. Just my two cents. I'll still keep it. The fit is nice and that is more important.

I am not sure. It doesn't look cheap like most imitation leather items do. I thought it said it was leather when I purchased it. It looks nice, I think you'd be pleased with it.

I don't think it's leather but very leather like. I like the way it looks and feels. We don't use that chair a lot, it's mostly for decor and when guests come over but we've had it for a while and it looks like new.

It is real leather which has its advantages and disadvantages. After 5 years of extensive travel with my bag the leather is worn and has the look of my favorite comfortable leather jacket. That is fine for most every day use but for a formal meeting where everyone is wearing suits and ties, etc., the old-leather-jacket look may not be appropriate for some. I'm back at this site now to replace my worn tan colored bag (which is still fully functional) with a new black one.

It is NOT real leather. However, it is nicely finished, and looks very much like leather.

See link here, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_leather , it's bonded leather. The other two answers here are generally correct. My wife bought this sofa and while I like it, it is a nice piece at a reasonable price, it definitely does not feel like a pure leather sofa. If you think you are getting a leather sofa at a tremendous discount, you are not, you get what you pay for. Hope that helps.
