MATCH 'N PATCHRealistic Leather Repair Tape - Durable, Easy-to-Apply, Professional Grade, Versatile Use, Designed in North Carolina for Furniture Restoration, Home Decor & DIY - Brown - 15' x 2.25"

I was hesitant to throw away our not-so-old sofa, so I started looking for something to hide or cover the tear. That’s when I stumbled upon this product—I never even knew such things existed!It matches my sofa color perfectly, the adhesive is strong, and it’s easy to use. I highly recommend this product—now my sofa will last even longer. Very happy!

I knew that patching it wasn't going to be perfect, but this is as close as you'll get! I was very impressed with the overall look and ease of use.

I want to start by saying that I tried two different leather/vinyl patch kits before I bought this tape. One of them I bought on Amazon (see my other reviews). Because the tear in my bench was at/near seams, the patch kits that involve putting a fabric substrate under the tear and using a vinyl adhesive DON'T WORK. In fact, after applying all that vinyl glue, the tears looked even worse than they did before. This tape was sort of my last hope of covering up some big ugly rips and keeping it from getting worse.Our 4 year old son is autistic and jumps off of EVERYTHING. ALL. DAY. LONG. This leather/vinyl storage bench (which we use to store all of his toy trains and tracks) clearly just couldn't handle the amount of climbing on a jumping that it has had to endure over the last year even though it's of pretty decent quality (purchased at RC Willey). We're thinking of sending him on a college tour to teach frat boys how to trash houses more quickly and efficiently. In the meantime, if my husband and I threw out and replaced every piece of furniture that our son has destroyed, we would be bankrupt by now, but we also don't want our home to look like a dumpster.Enter this 'last hope' tape. After the epic fail of the early attempts to repair the tears using kits, I had VERY low expectations of this product. I figured if it sort of matched and kept the tears from getting bigger, it would be a win. In short, I was very delightfully surprised and pleased with the result! Before I go any further, let me just get your expectations where they should be. This is leather colored tape. Period. Ok? Are we on the same page? Great. Let's continue. My storage bench is a dark brown leather/vinyl, so I bought the dark brown version of the tape. The match certainly isn't perfect, but close enough! The tape is more chocolate colored than our bench which has a little more red tones in it, but I doubt anything else would be closer. See pics.What I love about this tape is it's completely idiot proof, which I always appreciate. If you can be trusted with scissors, you can use this product. Fixing my tears was so quick and easy and I'm really pleased with the result! Up close you can definitely see it, but from 10ft away it's invisible (and I have 20/15 vision in both eyes)! See the pictures I included of up close vs 7ft away vs across the room. Guests in our home probably won't even notice it which was not the case before! Also, there is a leather-like grain printed on the tape. It's not extremely pronounced but I think is a nice feature.What I don't love as much about this tape is1) It isn't a perfect color match, but again, is close enough. I think they would do well to offer more colors with subtle differences in tone.2) I had hoped that, like duct tape, it had more of a thick "fabric" feel to it, but on the contrary, this is very tape-y tape.3) I would've loved for the underside/sides of the tape to not be white. The white edges, while very thin, are definitely visible up close, and should it start to peel up in the future will be very noticeable.All in all, for $9 I'm thrilled with the result and would ABSOLUTELY buy this again and recommend to other buyers, assuming you have appropriate expectations (that it's TAPE not leather or vinyl). This has saved what was an eyesore piece of furniture and will enable us to keep it at least another year or so. So far it has held up to our son climbing and jumping and he hasn't even noticed it! I hope this has helped some other poor soul in the same situation!I did NOT receive this item free or at a discount

The tape went on easy and was a good color match. It seemed to be a great solution to a tear we had on a leather recliner. After about 3 weeks, though, the tape seemed to start to "melt". The tape and the area around it became very sticky and the melted adhesive seemed to be running down the patched area. Has anyone else had this problem? The weather has not been excessively hot or humid. The melted adhesive doesn't wash off easy either.

Good item

We don't use our couch often, but one of my dogs had rubbed his face on the corner til the leather was gone. Our love seat, we live in as by seen by the coloring wearing off. Our couch/loveseat is what called "Chocolate Brown", so I ordered the dark brown tape. Almost a perfect match and I'm guessing after a few months, you won't be to tell on the corner that we taped it. Even the "print" on the tape matched!! Extremely pleased with my purchase!! It's thick like duct tape and super sticky too, so be careful! Plenty of tape for several small repairs or maybe a couple of bi repairs.

Like the product, however colors shown are not a good match. Wasted money, Color looked exactly like my leather chair, but way darker. Disappointed.

I am stunned as to how good this product is. Previously I bought a different product to cover a few bald spots on my leather furniture and the tape was way too thick, meaning that as soon as it was applied, the edges started curling up, which rendered the product useless. Not only is this tape nice and thin, which allows the outer edges to adhere to the furniture beautifully, but it is also super sticky. As a bonus, which is nothing but pure luck, the dark brown color I chose is a 100% perfect color match to my furniture. This is the best furniture repair tape on the market and it is note even close,
