Approx. 3 years old. Disgusting!!! Peeled, cracked, came off on skin, I would never, ever buy bonded "leather". What junk......and listen to the scam salesmen when they tell you how great it is!!!! What a scam!!! However, and unfortunately, it is very hard to know for sure if it is real leather until you have it for a year or two.
Keep in mind...real leather is very expensive. If you find a "leather" couch for $1500... chance are it is bonded. There's a new name for it now to....but I can't remember it. Just beware when buying leather.
