Leather Sofa

My leather sofa is starting to show signs of wear and tear, i am thinking of possibly getting a replacement. If i am going to i would like to get a decent one that will last me for years.

What shops or brands of sofa would people recommend. Am i best going with the obvious big names that sell sofas or can people recommend something or somewhere else to buy a sofa from.

Thanks for any advise.

    Where ever you do end up buying a leather sofa from, make sure it's real leather and not bonded leather or faux leather. Real leather sofa's last for years and years whilst with other cheaper alternatives you'll be lucky if they dont fall apart on you after a year.

    Not sure about places to get good deals on quality sofa's though. This is something I'd also like to know.
