Can't decide between sectional leather sofas and fabric sofas? Both have their strong points and each has its own loyal fans. Are you Team Leather or Team Fabric? If you're on the fence, here are some guidelines to help decide which is right for you.

Which is more comfortable? If you live in a hot or cold climate, leather might lose a bit of its sexiness in the height of the summer or the depths of the winter. Hot leather and bare thighs can be a sticky situation and most people want a warm fabric to cuddle up with in the colder months. If this is important to you, a fabric sofa might be a better choice. Apt2B fabric sectionals and standard upholstered fabric sofas are made from hypo-allergenic, breathable fabric, and are available in a kaleidoscope of exciting colors. But there's just something about an overstuffed leather sofa or sectional beckoning to you from the living room to take a seat and luxuriate for a moment or two. The plush, oversized cushions create an inviting space to put your feet up and relax. And you can't beat the level of sophistication an affordable leather sofa adds to your house or apartment. And just like a leather purse or jacket, leather furniture develops a beautiful patina over time and ages beautifully. Depending on the model, our affordable leather sofas and our upholstered sofas are equally comfortable in terms of size and depth; so really, it's a personal preference whether you like the cool feel of leather or you want to unwind with our breathable upholstery.

Is fabric or leather more durable and easier to clean? We get it. Before spending your hard-earned money on either an upholstered couch or a leather sectional, you want to be sure it'll last. If you entertain often, have a house full of precious (but sticky and oops-prone) kids and cute (but messy, shedding, drooling) fur babies, durability is exceptionally important. While the durability of the fabric or the leather will determine its resiliency, it's also important to take into consideration what room your couch will go in and how much use it'll get. Luckily, you'll find that both our affordable leather sofas and our upholstered fabric sofas are made with the highest quality materials, so expect to get an incredible return on your investment with years of enjoyment, whether you choose leather or upholstery. Our fabrics are hypo-allergenic, easy to clean and resistant to stains and our leather upholstery is made from superior quality top-grain leather, which is more stain resistant and will show less scratches than full-grain leather. Typically, all that's needed to keep leather looking spiffy is a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and spots. However, it may still show some marks, so you may want to think twice about buying leather if you have pets with claws.

Which is more hypo-allergenic, leather or fabric? Normally we'd say that leather is better for people with allergies. However, it's not as breathable as our special fabric. Once again, our upholstered fabric sofas are true superstars, because they're made with hypo-allergenic fabric!

How about the prices? We make that easy, because all our sofas are very affordable. So if you're into leather or fabric, you'll find the best prices for exceptionally well-designed, beautiful leather and upholstered sofas.
