Default Leather upholstery cleaning

Hi,

Anyone had leather sofas cleaned while in Canada?

Been quoted £195 for two two seaters which is not bad for decent leather sofas, but guy says will contain moisture after process so not good idea to store for long period. Six weeks on a boat might result in mould forming

Feedback on costs and whether you were happy with result greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Tracy

Why not just use any one of many products that are on the market and do it yourself? I use whatever saddle cleaner/conditioner that Mrs Rich has lying around. Leather CPR seems to work well:

I just use the spray stuff available from Canadian Tire for leather car seats. Works a treat on the leather sofas/chairs.

Thanks for advice, will def not be spending nearly £200 when there are so many alternatives involving a little elbow grease. Especially when it's not my elbow
