Default Best Leather Cleaner?

I've heard from MULTIPLE friends that Armor ALL(for leather) is CRAP. My question is what is the BEST for leather and the Dash/Vinyl? I bought Mcguire's leather cleaner for my car due to a friend's advice, but i haven't used it yet. I want to make sure i'm only using the best. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

Armor All is not good for leather.

I use Meguires leather cleaner/conditioner and have been happy with the results.

GM just released a new line of interior care products. Many of today's interiors are made with new, low gloss materials. Harsh cleaning products are not recommended for these interiors. Using products not intended for low gloss surfaces can set the stain to the point where nothing will remove it. Bulletin number 06-00-89-029 has additional details. A 24 oz spray bottle is part number 88861401, an 8 oz spray bottle is 88861405. This cleaner is specially formulated for leather, vinyl and plastic and is safe for high and low gloss finishes. After cleaning it is suggested that you use a conditioner to replace the oils used in cleaning and to restore the luster. A 24 oz spray bottle of the Leather/Vinyl Restorer is part number 88861402 and an 8 oz bottle is 88861406. There are other cleaning products that were just released, see your GM Dealer for information. The Canadian A. C. Delco network also carries equivalent products.
