Most likely NOT very scratch resistant. Not all bonded leather is created equal or should it even be called leather. Its basically vinyl with the back side of the vinyl being ground up leather scraps. To make it feel more soft and leather like they cant make the top vinyl coating very thick. To resists scratching your better off going to the real Naugahyde brand vinyl. The leather your cats scratched was pigmented leather, if you had purchased top grain aniline dyed leather then the scratches was not be so noticeable.

A German company, Schott Ceran, makes a proprietary scratch resistant “ Ceran” cooktop. Miradur and Luminoir are two of their proprietary products. In addition to their own products, they also partner with Bosch, Miele and some other brands that provide this cooktop. My Jenn Air electric range is 23 years old. It has a Ceran cooktop that has held up beautifully and still looks amazing. Unfortunately, I must now replace the range. My research shows that Ceran is only available now on high end luxury brands. Jenn Air is now owned by Whirlpool. So far, I find no reference to Ceran still being used for the new Jenn Air cooktops. I’m seeing reviews on many name brand ranges indicating low quality finishes that peel or rub off, faulty components, inadequate self cleaning features, unpredictable temperature variations and limited customer service. I try to find reviews from customers who have had their new range long enough to experience the real result; not just the beautiful new range in the kitchen. I’m very discouraged in my quest for a new electric slide in range. In our household, the range gets a lot of use. It is a major consideration. I don’t want to replace it again in a few years. Looks like I may have to commit to a far more expensive purchase than originally planned in order to get the cooktop and more reliable features I need.

@Beth H - they are not mine - my client has 4 Savannahs - they are BEAUTIFUL!!! We are talking cabinets (all of the other finishes in the bath will be tile/stone/quartz), and the cats like to try to open cabinet doors - which has resulted in scratches in the past.

Hi everyone! Looking at buying a new couch and looking for a fabric or leather that can withstand cat nails on them -- the cats don't scratch furniture and I keep their nails trimmed, but they inevitability cause wear and tear just by jumping up on the couches, etc. I spied a lovely couch and loveseat set but I can't tell if the leather is the super durable kind or the nightmare kind -- can anyone comment?
