The standard length of a marathon is 26.2 miles, and the Britax Marathon Convertible Car Seat will cover more than 100 times that distance. The Britax Marathon Convertible car seat is one of the most functional seats to ever hit the market. Slightly larger than other Britax Car Seats, the Marathon is legendary for safety and comfort. It's important to note that the shell of the car seat is a bit bulkier than others, so parents should allow for about 31 inches of seat space when used rear facing. Some of the unique features on the Britax Marathon Convertible Car Seat include a five-point polyester harness with no-tangle polyester webbing, built in lock-offs for the car's seat belts, and a push-button LATCH system with VersaTether. This Britax Car Seat provides the utmost security in both forward and rear facing installations. The Britax Marathon has Expanded PolyStyrene (EPS) padding to protect your baby in the event of a collision. Britax convertible car seats are equipped with their patented HUGS system, which is designed to better distribute webbing loads to reduce head movement and minimize the chance for the webbing's edge to load on the child's neck. The Britax Marathon provides parents with an all around top-rated car seat. However, it might be too large for compact cars. For those looking for a smaller Britax Car Seat, the Britax Roundabout is a perfect choice. It is a little smaller than the Britax Marathon, and it is designed for children weighing up to 40 pounds.

My baby loves this seat! 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.......
I was a little turned off by the price of this car seat, but I pulled the trigger anyway. Let me say that I have never questioned my purchase. My kid loves it. She can see well from it and it is comfortable enough to sleep in. My wife and I switch it between cars and with the latch system it it takes about 1 minute to switch cars. Read the manual and you won't have any trouble switching from rear to front facing or removing the cover for cleaning. It is simple and always reassuring. ......
This is our third britax purchase. We have one in each of our cars and just bought a third for my mom's car. This car seat is wonderful. My son loves it and it is easy to install. I have seen how friends car seats latch systems work, and they all wish they bought the marathon. My husband loves it too because the fire department rates it at the top for car seat safety. He is a firefighter and installs car seats all the time. This one by far gets his vote. We have our second baby on the way, due this fall and that baby will go in the marathon facing backwards. Definitely worth every penny! ......
This is the biggest and most secure car seat I have ever seen. It is a giant among car seats. Even the way it sits in a car makes it feel more secure. It does take some sizing which I did with the child before I put it in the car. Putting it in was pretty fast and easy too, which is not something I have experienced before.
It is very easy to get children in and out of this seat. The fabric is wonderful and soft and buying it in granite will probably give it some longevity.
I did research before I found the one I thought was the safest when our latest grew out of an infant seat. I have probably purchased twenty car seats between children and grandchildren (and a DIL who gave them away every time one of her three children grew out of one). THIS is the only one I remember for its quality.......
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. For more details on child seat requirements, visit you states child safety seat laws. For California, it's at [...]
I'm not too sure how I will use it as a booster seat, but it can be done.
The Britax Marathan isn't cheap, it can get QUITE pricey. I've seen deals online ranging from $60 to $300. Yes $60!! It was at Target Online but they did honor it for a few people. So knowing what I want early has helped me get some sweet deals!
My daughter was in her Keyfit 30 until she was 7 months old. Then she outgrew it and we placed her into the Britax Marathon. We used the same Infantino car seat cover from the Keyfit 30 on the Britax which helped with the transition.
The Britax looks heavy, but it's actually quite light. It's easy to setup, AFTER we found the instruction manual, which was hidden and tucked well under the Britax. The Britax is also accepted on the airplane too.
I won't go into the safety standards because lots of other reviewers have done that already. From reading their reviews & Consumer Reports, I know this car seat has great safety ratings.
I do recommend that if you plan on getting this car seat to invest in a few accessories. I know the Infantino Car Seat Cover, Blue Chocolate Circles seat covers works well on it. I also invested in Kiddopotamus Cushystraps Super Soft Strap Covers, Pink Bunnies because my daughter falls asleep easily in the Britax and her head always droops forward.
