Britax Marathon — 

When the time came to transition our daughter from her infant car seat to a bigger, forward facing seat, it was important for us to choose a trustworthy brand.

The Britax Marathon CS has so far proven to be an excellent car seat- one that our daughter can use for years to come.  The seat was fairly easy to install- though I did hear my husband cursing once or twice. :)

The 5 point harness and side impact protection are great features that give me some peace of mind.

Our seat is the crimson color, and it is nice and vibrant.  We have several friends who also own the same car seat and they all agree that this seat will last for years (and future children) to come.  

My daughter seems comfortable in the Britax Marathon CS, and she was definitely excited the first time she got to take a ride in it. She loves facing forward and yelling at things that she sees out the window!  I would definitely recommend a Britax to others.

NOTE: the reviewer indicated that they received a sample of Britax Marathon
