I was looking into getting an entirely new wheel before I saw this kit, and even had quotes from a couple salvage yards to do so but the $150 minimum price tag was just a bit too much to justify such a minor cosmetic fix. I was pretty skeptical about how well this kit would work, but I'm really happy with the results!
I had to do a couple of coats to completely cover the speckles, and the (already faded and stained, see pictures) red stitching on my wheel was also dyed in the process, but the leather looks brand new now! The stitching wasn't much of a loss imo, it now looks like it was supposed to be black and I prefer that, but it is something to be mindful of.
I found it was helpful to review the video provided here by The Rag Company, as most other videos were too long and didn't cover the most relevant details. I also used the elephant leather conditioner and let it soak in for about 3 days, reapplying twice.
As shown in the pictures attached, the results are great.

This product really brought back the appearance of appearance of the leather on a 2007 4runner I bought used. What they didnt mention is that product restores the feeling of a worn steering wheel to a natural feeling leather, instead of the rock hard vinyl feeling of an uncared for leather acquires over years of neglect.
