The Britax Marathon Convertable car seat is one of the best products we've bought since we have had a baby.  We loved it so much, we bought one more to put in our second car. Our son is comfortable in it as the material is soft and the frame allows him to sit with appropriate support. Other car seats we looked at didn't seem to offer the support it does on the child's lower back and that has been a concern of mine. With this one, his back is snug all the way into the car seat, but he can see around without trying to move his body forward.  Even when he was a very young baby, he seemed more comfortable in this convertible seat than in his carrier combo. The harness is very secure, yet it is easy to click and snap - can be done quickly - and our son does not fuss when we are putting it on him. The extra pads provided on the harness are the same material as the seat itself and have a soft coolness to them. Seems like it would be pampering to wear them near your body.  Very sturdy, fun but not too crazy design, easy to use.
