Default what good leather care product do you use?

just curious here as to what leather care products everyone uses to keep the leather from not cracking? I have heard of Meguiar's I also have heard of some using Danier leather and so on? What else do you reccomend?

Here are the three i like:

1. Townsend - The most expensive option but a good cleaner and conditioner
2. Lexol - Cleaner and Conditioner - Easy to find in auto stores
3. Zaino - Cleaner and Conditioner - the best smelling

I recommend Einszett Leather Care (Lederpflege)
Click HERE to purchase or read about Einszett Leather Care (Lederpflege)
One step cleaner AND protect-ant. I used to use Lexol cleaner and their separate conditioner.
I didn't like the idea of using a "leather soap" that I had to remove with more water, even if it was only a damp rag. Then the conditioner left the seats feeling sticky for a day or so. It did smell great after the treatment.
With Einszett Leather Care you just rub it well with a soft Microfiber towel, let it penetrate for a few minutes. Then buff off. SImple. Leaves the leather looking as it should Natural.

I ended up buying the Meguiar's and it seems to do a decent job.

Since the seats are "leather-trimmed", what part is leather and what part is "leatherette"? Are just the seat and seat-back face leather?

Thanks.
