    Lexus has coated leather. Leather Master would work very well, as well as Pinnacle...And if you are on a tight budget try Duragloss leather twins...Mother will work too, but there are better products out there...

    Exactly, and there are better products out there. Infact, they're not made specifically for Lexus, they're just rebadged with Lexus labels.

    I saw a list on Club Lexus (or Lexus Owners Club) a while ago that listed Lexus branded products and their manufacturers. If I can find it I'll repost it here.
    Never be afraid to do something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark; professionals built the titanic

    Try the conditioner but don't bother with the cleaner unless you have leather that's very dirty, or you have light colred leather and want it on hand just in case. The Lexus recommended diltue Woolite works just fine at cleaning light to moderate dirt and spills. And, dust and very light dirt will wipe away with a mf damped with distilled water. I see no sense in for a cleaner unless you absolutely need to.

    As Matt noted, the cleaner and conditioner are not made by Lexus. They are supplied to Lexus by the leather manufacturer. Now, the mfg may actually be making the products or they may be subcontracting to a company that specializes in leather cleaning products. No matter. The products are specifically approved by the mfg for the leather. They made the leather, they know what will work. Other products may, in fact, work just as well but a choice like that is truly a no-brainer.
