We shopped very carefully for a carseat for our son, and once he outgrew the infant seat (Graco SnugRide), we looked to Baby 411's gear guide to see what rated best. This carseat was the winner.

My son is a tad small for his age, but he rides like the king of the backseat when he's in his carseat. This carseat is washable, I can say that for sure! Our son is 3 and eats snacks frequently in it, and we just wipe it down with a baby wipe. Bigger spills can be taken care of by removing the straps and cover, which is easy to do. It's well-padded, cushy, and I feel that the "wings" around the head-area keep my kiddo safer.

The only problem we've had is, it's BIG. We drive a BMW 325i and now that his legs are getting longer, my son is getting a little cramped. With my husband's seat pushed back (when husband drives) it's a tight fit.

Shop around for the best deals on this seat: don't wait until you MUST have one, and you'll have time to sort through the different prices.

Britax carseats are super easy to install, and are very comfortable for the baby. I definitely recommend them, and they are worth the money.

My family is a Britax family, we have 3 different seats. I would say this is one of the best seats of the Britax family. It gives us plenty of room for my one year old now and can easily see her in this for the many years to come. My three year old has sat in it and still has plenty of room.

She is still currently rear facing, just turned 1 and is only 22 pounds. Will probably keep her rear facing for a little longer, she still doesn't mind getting in it. She often falls asleep as soon as we get down the road.

The fabric is very cute and soft.

This carseat is great. I've used it for two boys so far and it's held up fantastic. It's comfy, easy to use, easy to clean and best of all, Safe! I love the length of rear facing.

Customer Buzz
It is a great car seat.
It was expensive (compared to other brands) but worth it!
It is defiantly very safe from all the safety features and well built.
I would recommend this to anyone!
The only slight problem I have with it is my son is bigger for his age and the buckle part is a little hard to clasp and not pinch his leg.

the Britax Marathon is working perfectly for our 1 year old. We've only had it for a month but it seems to be well made. I think my favorite feature is the no-tangle straps, which make strapping in a wiggly baby much faster.

As a new 59 year old Grandma, I was able to buy this for my car, install it (and I have arthritis) without difficulty and it functions.

Customer Buzz
Very happy with this carseat. It is easy to install, we still have it rear-facing for our 11-month old son. It is solidly built, I feel safe with him in it. Another important thing: Comfort. Most seats, it seems, have just a thin layer of padding atop the hard molding of the seat. This seat, however, is nice and plush.
When we had this seat checked by our local carseat technician at the firestation he said not to use the tether system until we turn the seat around, the Britax website says you can use the tether rear-facing but we see no point, plus there are no anchors in that position in my car.
One negative is the first couple of weeks , we had our son in the seat with the straps in the lowest position and to tighten him in, while pulling on the front tightener, the metal mechanism under the seat was catching on the molding thus preventing us from tightening as much as needed. But the fireman said to loosen the straps and re-tighten. When he gets a little bigger and graduates to the next level strap height, that will not be an issue. Even now after about a month of use, it is not an issue.
Other than that, our son is very happy in his new 'big boy seat'. I would purchase this seat again if I needed to.

Customer Buzz
Easy to install and use. High quality and material. Rated high in saftey. Completely worth the price.

Customer Buzz
Looks great. My chubby 25 pound 5 month old fits well.
I figured out to get him unbuckled I push on the button and pull on the leg straps (not the shoulder straps). I wish the velcro on the sides to hold the straps open was a little bigger or better placed. It takes up a lot of space in our Toyota Corolla but a not too tall passenger can still sit in the front.
