    Now looked at the photos and can't see an issue as our new suite (not DFS) is almost 6 months old and gets a similar finish on the seats as the filling is compressed. If left for an hour or so the filling expands and the leather goes back to a smooth finish.

    These pict were takenabout six hours of no one sitting on on them. Even after two days they look at the same.
    And all this within two weeks.
    I can actually pull the leather up.

    5.5k?
    Did you visit DFS on the one day in the last 10 years they didn't have the biggest ever sale on?

    I too have an awful feeling DFS have done very nicely out of this and managed to get a sale of a cheap suite at a vastly inflated price.

    OP, keep an eye on DFS Boxing Day sale and see if your suite is in the sale at a heavily discounted price.

    If this is by chance a branded suite, G plan, Natuzzi etc I would also contact the manufacturer, despite the contract being with DFS, for some advice.

    I can see the face of Jesus in this one! It could be worth a fortune.

    PS: Does that mean my sins are forgiven?

    My leather sofa is 4 years old and looks nothing like this: http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=30mxvls&s=8#.VIhyGa1ya00
    I wouldn't be too impressed with that, surely there's a lack of padding?
    Mine was £800 and has thin leather.

    Looks pretty normal for a leather sofa, I was expecting it to look awful from the description!
    Same here looks fine to me and to be expected

    Mine must be faulty then, thankfully :)

    Isnt a branded suite. The 5.5k was for a few sofas (3 seater, 2 seaters, singles, etc).
    None of the others have creases anything like this. I might not have been this pee'd off if I had just purchased a single 3 seater which i could replace in a few years. But when these are all in a single big room, the 3 seater looks awful in comparison.
