I wanna ask the folks here, I was at the Sunway Home expo recently and most of the sofas there are selling some type of Leather which they call it ECO leather, advantages is that is doesn't scratch and maintenance is minimal and looks like leather.

I know the cost is almost as half as full leather, around 4k or so but I actually do not like real leather especially cow leather.
As a person like me who doesn't waste time maintaining leathers, in coming years real leather will crack and scratches will be easily seen and it will have more if you have children, I don't wanna spend something so expensive and it needs to be taken care properly in order for it to look nice.

So my question is that, is there any side effects that people see with this type of synthetic leather in their use in the log run? If anyone can convince me why leather is still better I' all ears but it can't have the cons of full leather.
