we live in a very very hot climate and one thing we didn't like abt the onyx was that it was made of velure and another more plastic-like material and it got VERY VERY HOT. so while browsing on amazon i saw the denim and though it would be perfect even throughout the summer when it can get to 100 degrees. so we bought it for our then 2.5 year old and now we are buying a second denim (third britax) for our 10 month old. it is safe, easy to install, comfortable, and easily adjustable, and i especially like that the instruction manual is tethered to the inside of the seat for quick reference and you can't lose it! from Amazon.com As grandparents we inherited 2 Britax Boulevard models. The straps connecting the seats to the car jam with every use and the clips are difficult to attach. from Amazon.com She's so happy to be forward facing now (like her big sister). We tried to keep her rear facing for as long as possible for safety reasons but she's outgrown that mode of seating. So, the Marathon, forward facing, is the next best thing. She looks super comfy in her new seat and I love that the cover is a nice fabric that doesn't get too hot or make her sweaty in the waining days of summer heat. from Amazon.com This car seat saved my daughter's life. We were in a horrible head -on collision and the Britax Marathon car seat saved her life. She sustained no injuries, not even a scratch. from Amazon.com I love this seat it is actually the 5th marathon seat I purchased. It held my daughter from the hospital till today. from Amazon.com It is more expensive than some of the other carseats out there. But it's an important purchace. Will buy Britax again in the future when I have more babies. from Amazon.com This is our third britax purchase. We have one in each of our cars and just bought a third for my mom's car. from Amazon.com I spent hours researching the best car seat. I knew she was going to be in the Chicco KeyFit 30 Infant Car Seat - Adventure for the first months, but I needed to purchase a car seat that will last her until she's ready for toddler booster seat (which in California is 40 pounds or more). After reading Consumer Reports and online reviews, I decided on the Britax Marathon (can be used for children up to 65 pounds). The Britax Marathon is good for rear facing, forward facing, and it can also be used as a booster seat too. from Amazon.com I love that you don't have to feed the straps to adjust and can tighten them by pulling on the belt. We already had the exact same one from Babies R Us that cost quite a bit more, but needed another for our second car. We had a Safety First infant carrier before this, but once I got the Britax I realized how flimsy the other one was and stopped using it right away. The cost is quite a bit more than some others, but well worth the safety of your little one. from Amazon.com I just wanted to aknowledge a great customer experience. Everyone knows that Britax makes excellent products, and the Marathon is no exception. The only real problem is with the price, Marathons are expensive. from Amazon.com

Description

The Britax Marathon can accommodate children rear-facing from 5 to 33 pounds or children forward-facing from 1 year old and 20 to 65 pounds. The built-in vehicle belt lock-offs are only one of the features that make the Marathon easy to install with the highest level of safety. The Marathon's Versa-Tether system is compatible with the top tether points on vehicles, to anchor the top of the car seat and prevent tilting. Combined with LATCH system connectors with a push-button release, these features will ensure the most secure possible installation in your vehicle. Plus, the patented "floating" HUGS System is designed to reduce head movement and keep the child's head and neck safe in all situations, and EPS protective foam surrounds your child's head and torso for maximum protection.
