    Do you mean a professional cleaner tore or wore a hole in a leather couch?

    If it has a hole in it, it would be ruined at my home

    There is more then one way to look at it. And a good upholsterer can repair the cushions. So its really hard to say without knowing the full extent of the damage and how it was actually caused.

    No. My crazy ex did it in haste.just by being sloppy.the model is discontinued and a perfect repair is given less than a 10% chance according to the store where I purchased it. I'm wondering about H.O. insurance

    Its not likely covered by your home owners insurance as this is something you yourself created and not from outside influence.

    I disagree. Some kids scribbled on the cushions.that is covered by H.O. I was just wondering if they would cover it completely-i have replacement value.but to me it is ruined because it was a beautiful leather couch and it won't match

    Now your story is not making sense. Who's children were these? And who gave them permission to be near the couch?
