Default Leather Seat Products

I've tried what is avaliable at walmart (armorall, megellans(sp?)) but I feel like there has to be something better for my seats.

I try to treat the seats at least once a week to keep them soft, but there is cracking.

Is there any product anyone can recommend to really condition the seats and maybe even get the cracking out if possible.

I use the product below. I used to work at Lexus and this is the same product we used on the customer leather and our own.

Go to a Bed Bath and Beyond, and get "leather CPR" works great!

That is the last one I tried. Seemed to work pretty decent.

Is there anything I can do to get rid of the cracks, or are those something permanent?

I'm not sure - when I bought my 05 used last Feb the seats and interior were in excellent shape. I just treat the leather and hope to prevent the cracking.

last year at the car show some old guy told me to use PLEDGE. he said it will help you sliding off the seat easily while keeping minium damage to the seat from cracking/creasing. anybody heard of this before?
