Britax
This is our second step in protecting the safety of our granddaughter. Both chairs are of high quality and work great. thanks

Britax carseat
This is a great carseat and the video demonstration online was a BIG help in getting it installed by my sister and me instead of looking for professional help. My grandson will enjoy the seat for many years I'm sure. Thank you.

Best carseat available
We have owned this car seat for nearly five years and it is as good today as it was on day one. We have a Toyota minivan and there's only LATCH on one of the rear seats. This car seat installs easily on both the LATCH seat and the seat with the traditional seat belt. We also own an Evenflo Triumph (both were very highly rated in safety tests) and the Marathon is always our first choice if we have to move a car seat from one vehicle to the next. After all, if it's not installed properly it's not going to protect your child... and nobody likes messing with installing car seats. The Marathon is about as painless as it gets.

The Evenflo's straps are constantly twisted but the Marathon's always seem to be flat, just like they're supposed to be. It has little Velcro strips on the edges of the seat so when you're taking your child out you can stick the straps right there and not have to mess with trying to sort them out when you get back to the car.

It's easy to adjust the strap height when your child grows. My 6-yr-old daughter is at the highest setting and she's not even close to outgrowing this seat yet in terms of height or weight limitations.

The only issue we have had is that the belt tightening mechanism gets stuck occasionally. That's more likely because of spilled juice than a design flaw. :) We have the black and gray cover and it's really good at camouflaging any spills. It does get pretty hot in the summer, but we throw a light-colored towel over it if the van's going to be sitting out in the sun and that helps a lot. I wish there were a place to tuck the unused LATCH straps if you're using a traditional seat belt, but that's not enough for me to give this car seat any fewer than the 5 stars it deserves.

This was a GREAT investment. I wish we'd sucked it up and spent a little more money on another Marathon instead of going with an Evenflo the second time.
