BRITAX: "Baby" does the Marathon.

Date of Review:  Apr 25, 2008
The Bottom Line: A durable and well designed car seat - albeit expensive and somewhat heavy.
Review: Our offspring apparently decided to be on the fast track for the transition from a baby seat to a convertible seat and as of the 9th month reached the 29" height limit of the Graco Snugride. The latter did a great service for the short time it fit...

Date of Review:  Apr 14, 2008
The Bottom Line: Don't bother with the cheaper seats, start here!
Review: After a rough time and over an hour of hard work trying to install a Cosco Omega Elite, I returned it to the store and bought the seat I should have purchased from the get go...the Britax Marathon!

After reading the directions for the...

Excellent car seat although quite costly

Date of Review:  May 17, 2008
The Bottom Line: Although it is expensive it is worth the money for the easy of use and piece of mind.
Review: We decided to purchase the Britax Marathon car seat after researching various other car seats. I had horrible experiences with previous car seats with my other child and was determined to find a car seat that was the safest and would also provide an...

Fantastic

Date of Review:  Aug 10, 2008
Review: This is my second Marathon. The first one that we purchased was for my son in 2002 in the beloved Fido print. We purchased the Mariposa print this year for our daughter after our first one expired. My daughter will be three and is only 24lbs and 33...

Britax Marathon is the way to go.

Date of Review:  Jul 25, 2008
The Bottom Line: I would buy it over and over again, we just did, buying our 2nd Marathon for our 5 month old.
Review: As soon-to-be new parents we were very anxiously awaiting the new arrival of our baby. In a panic we realized soon we would be responsible for transporting the most precious child in the whole world and Yikes.... we hadn't purchased, or selected, a...

Worth the Investment

Date of Review:  Jul 21, 2008
The Bottom Line: Definitely buy this seat!

Very sturdy and safe

Date of Review:  Nov 17, 2009
Review: This is a little on the expensive side, but it's well worth it.  The car seat is very soft and feels very durable.  I feel safe having my daughter in this car seat.
