Britax Marathon Review

Britax is the brand for car seats, and the Marathon is a great choice for a convertible.  Although it can take infants (5-35 pounds rear facing), an infant carrier is best for the really little ones - but once they've outgrown it, the Marathon is the way to go.  As a convertible, it can Rear Face or Forward Face - and don't forget, just because your child has reached 1 year old or 20 pounds does not mean you Have to turn them around!  The Marathon Rear Faces up to 33 pounds, so you can extend the safety of your child.  Easy to install either way with the LATCH system, this is also one of the few seats that has a top tether that can be used when Rear Facing.  Both of my kids have loved this seat - it is super comfy for them and i feel good knowing that it is super safe.  It may cost a little more than others, but it will hold you until 65 pounds!  it's got a great lifespan to it.
