I use steam to clean leather. I use a Desidero, it cleans extremely well, you just need to be concerned that it could damage vinyl. While I don't have enough time booked with it, I wonder if it is introducing unnecessary stress to the leather? I steamed my 3 month old leather Jeep seats this week as I spilled 10lbs of linguine and clam sauce in the back seat. No damage from the steamer, the seats still look new.
I steamed a Nissan Altima interior and the door panel vinyl felt "gummy" while I was steaming. Maybe I heated up the glue that holds the vinyl to the panel? There was no damage, but I could see a potential problem if I left the steam on there too long.
