How do you prevent leather furniture from peeling?

• <div><p>Ongoing maintenance of your leather furniture is the only way to prevent it from peeling and cracking. Real leather will peel and crack as it dries out. Leather conditioners are a great way to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/tips-protect-your-leather-furniture-years-come.htm">protect your leather furniture</a> from drying out, and you’ll need to apply it about twice each year. It’s also a good idea to keep abrasive materials away from your leather to prevent cracking and peeling, including belt buckles, shoes, and multi-surface cleaners, especially those that contain alcohol.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth it to repair leather furniture?

• <div><p>It is usually worth repairing leather furniture, as it tends to retain its value, provided you care for the material. A typical repair for leather furniture will cost about <b>$250</b>, which is significantly more affordable than replacing the furniture entirely. Even if you spend toward the upper end of the typical cost range for a full reupholstering&mdash;around <b>$4,000</b>&mdash;you&rsquo;ll still save money over replacing it. Of course, the quality of the leather and the piece of furniture matters. Consult a leather repair professional about whether it&rsquo;s worth repairing your leather furniture.</p></div>

• <div><p>You can make your dining room look more expensive using one or more of several methods.
