Yep! Good ol' Thor corner-cutting!
Yep, I paid to "upgrade" my dinette to this faux leather. Big mistake. Mine looked like yours. I next bought the same fabric online and had the seat bottoms recovered. Mistake #2. I paid about $5/yd, retail. (Surprised?) Apparently, Thor uses this inferior product on drivers/passengers seats, too, where there much more wear.
Finally, I had an upholstery shop recover the the entire dinette with substantial material for just under $1k. (The first smart thing I did with this problem.)
I don't think Thor is alone in using cheap fabric, but with labor being the major component, why not use more substantial material? Who knows; they might acquire repeat customers. Too simple an idea, I suspect.
