So funny because I went through a similar situation. I had a micro-suede sofa (tan though) and found it incredibly difficult to maintain with the kids and animals. It never looked too great, and I even had it professionally cleaned and the stains seemed to come right back. I bought a few different leather sofas of differing quality grades, they have all held up just fine and are so simple to clean. They still look great after 10 or more years and I am not tired of them yet either!
