Yes, loads of us. Most have had the ones from "wood company" but they look almost identical. It's a great use of the otherwise unused space.

I agree. A very comfortable addition. I see there is a used Almond version of the Wood&Co product currently advertised on the subject site. Looks like a bargain to me, being that is is described as 'as-new'. Thumbs Up Firenze Red XS TD4 01/2013 . Averaging 1800 miles per month. My 5th Freelander in 11 years. Devotee?

I'm seriously considering getting one of these armrests myself, but I can't decide between the 'real' leather one and the 'eco' leather option. Is anyone able to suggest which would be the better match to the handbrake and gearstick gaiters already in my car please? It's a 2012 GS.

What exactly is 'eco' leather anyway? Is that a subtle way of saying 'fake' leather?! If so, does it look any good?

Many thanks.

Yes but you need to get the right one! I have one fitted to my HSE. There is a specific one for cars fitted with factory armrests. Here is an example:-
