I loved the Britax Marathon. My youngest was involved in two accidents while restrained in the Marathon. The first he was rear-facing and slept until he got hungry while waiting on the cops. The last one was a wreck that totaled my Jeep. All he had were strap burns from the wreck. After the wreck we replaced it with another Britax seat. It may be costly, but this is a child's life we are protecting.
