Customer Buzz
I find this seat to be very sturdy! We also have a Britax and although I love the ease of installation and ease of use with the Britax, the Radian XT has features that are more important to me! I love the low profile of the seat and how narrow it is. The Marathon would NOT fit between our two other seats, where the XT fits easily. I was worried that because the seat was more narrow, there wouldn't be enough room for the baby, but that was not the case. There is plenty of room and most importantly, the seat of the Radian is DEEP, allowing her to rearface comfortably for a lot longer than the shallow seat of the Britax. I LOVE the material! So much cooler than the Britax and a lot of other "plush" seats!
This seat is heavy, but it is made with steel, I would be shocked if it were light. It does fold up for travel and even comes with a carrying strap.
Whatever carseat you get, make sure it fits your car and your kid properly! THat is the only way you can ensure you have gotten the "safest seat"

Customer Buzz
I am one of the first to receive the new Radian XT. I also own a Britax Marathon that we are moving to Daddy's car. For the price, I expected this seat to have the same "high quality" feel as the Britax line. The fabric is not nearly as nice as Britax. I can already tell that the belly bad will be ripped and missing in a few weeks.

We purchased this seat because of the slim line and portability. The folding feature and the ability to fit 3 across are what sold us on this seat. Yes this seat folds up. But it is extremely heavy!!! The Marathon feels so lightwheight in comparison. And I am sure that fitting 3 across would be a very tight installation with lots of manuvering.

Yes it is nice to have a seat that goes up to 80 pounds. But my daughter is likely to outgrow this seat in height well before she reaches 80 pounds. Sunshine kids does not offer the side impact wings in the Radian 65 or I would have rather purchased that seat for 100 bucks less. I waited weeks to get the new XT radian because of the side impact wings. Not really sure that they are worth the wait and the extra expense.

The installation is not as smooth and seamless at the Britax. But it does fit very secure after following the complicated instructions.
If you have a smaller child or infant...I would recommend the Marathon over the Radian. But for an older child I would go for the Radian. It has a nice low profile that is easier for the child to climb in and out.
