MARATHON

I just ordered my girls ages 4 and 2 their 3rd and 2nd marathon respectively. The ONLY reason we have had that many is because of car accidents. In California it is the law that they MUST be replaced. So here we are. This most recent accident was yesterday morning. We were traveling down the highway...

I bought my britax marathon when my son was 1 yrs old, since then i have no complain about it. The installation is very simple and you can easily switch the seat rear facing for your child.

Like most people I turned my son forward facing at 1 year and 20 pounds. I quickly found out that I was wrong. He was no where near big enough to be in a forward facing carseat, but he had outgrown his infant seat.

It took us a while to figure out what to do and after buying a few differ...

The Marathon is worth the money!! Its one of the easiest carseats to get installed properly and it doesn't budge at all. I feel that my son is so much safer in his Marathon. Plus, mommy doens't go crazy trying to figure out the carseat. Its really an awesome, easy, SAFE carseat.

You never want to test out a child safety seat, but we are glad we got the Marathon. Our 3 year old daughter was in the seat nearest the impact when our Pilot was hit broadside by an 18-wheeler coming through an intersection. She had no injuries, save a bump on the head from her hair barette being...

This is our 2nd Marathon because of an accident. My son loved his Cowmoo Marathon and did not give it up to his sister without a fight. He is now in a Frontier. We love the Marathon because it fits our bigger kids so nicely. My daughter at 15 months rear faces so nicely and hopefully will stay l...

My two children, ages 1 1/2 and 2 1/2 we recently in a side-impact crash by a AAA flat bed diesel. Our suburban rolled over 4-6 times and both my kids walked away from this horrible accident without a scratch! I am forever grateful to Britax for saving my children's lives! Thank-You! I would hi...

When I bought the Marathon, I bought it knowing that I would be able to use the seat for a long time AND be able to extend rearfacing and extend harnessing. I currently have my 22 month old rear facing in the Marathon and he is 24 lbs. Since his seat rearfaces to 35 lbs, he has a very long time befo...

We purchased the Marathon seat for our oldest daughter 4 years ago. She still uses it and loves it. We bought a second seat for our younger daughter 2 years ago & she loves hers as well. I always feel confident when they are in their seats that both of my children are as safe as can be when we get i...

I bought our first marathon car seat before our daughter turned one year old. Now that she is 3 years old, she still loves it. We just bought a second marathon car set for our jeep wrangler and she loves being in it. I will never use any other car seat brand. We love Britax and it is worth every...

This is the best seat. I had two friends highly recommend this seat and they were totally right. Then, my neighbor's child rode with me in this seat and she was so impressed by the way he was able to sit in this seat versus the one she had, she went out and bought one too! My son is very happy an...

We brought these convertible seat after having an accident right around the time we were going to switch up from their infant seat. We were fortunate that our insurance has covered the cost of 2 seats for our twins. We love our Britax design!

No more trying to unlatch a hook blindly buried in your seat....one button and poof out pops your car seat...not to mention the velcro to hold the straps so they don't get...

I love the Marathon. It is a great seat. Easy to use with extra safety features like rear-facing tether capability and Side Impact Protection. In addition it allowed me to keep my son safer by letting me rear-facing him to 27 months of age and 34 pounds .

I turned my oldest daughter forward facing per the doctor's recommendations at 11 months and 20 lbs. I quickly learned what a mistake that was! No child that size should be forward facing. After doing my research and becoming a certified car seat tech, I learned just how important extended rear faci...

I used an Ashley Floral Marathon for my daughter for about a year.
It was easy to install, and so easy to put her in snugly. She was comfortable every moment of the trip.

The only complaint I have about this seat is the width of it - we had to stop using the Marathon when another ch...

We love the Britax Marathon. It is a very solid, sturdy seat. The installation is an absolute dream in every car I've put it in. It even fits rearfacing on an airplane.

It is very supportive and comfortable for my son, without the need of extra pillows and inserts to get in the way whi...

The Marathon by far has been the easiest seat to use/install. My kids both have loved and used it. My son is still using it today at almost 4 years old and 35 lbs.

Here is a picture of my son rear-facing in his marathon on southwest 737. The seat installed easily on the plane, I had no trouble at all. I loved that he could fit in the seat rear-facing which made it easier for me to interact with him on the flight.

Here is my son in is rear-facing marathon at 2 years 4 months old. You can tell how much he hates to be rear-facing! :)

I really liked how tight I am able to get my britax seats and the rear-facing tether makes me feel better if I were to get in an accident.

This is a great seat and with it my daughter was more than comfortable rear-facing on her second birthday.

I like how easy it is to install with the latch, the rear-facing tether made it more secure, love the no twist straps, and of course the cute covers are to die for!

My son used his britax marathon from 4 months until 5 1/2 when he got too tall for it.

He was able to use it rear-facing until he was 2 years 10 months old.

I was very happy with the seat! I loved the no twist straps, how easy it was to install, and the lock offs.

My daughter has been rear-facing in Britax convertibles (Decathlon and Marathon) for more than 2.5 years. I was initially attracted by the Britax reputation for quality and safety, and have been nothing but pleased with the seats.

The ease of installation is terrific - as a certified chi...

As a Child Passenger Safety Technician, I understand the importance of extended rear-facing, and as a parent I make it one of my highest priorities. The Britax Marathon has long been my go-to seat since the birth of my son. What started out as wanting a 'pretty' cover(cowmoo) grew into loving the se...

My son outgrew his infant seat at 7 months (big boy) and so weight restrictions were an important factor when considering our next carseat! We needed a convertible carseat so he could still face the rear, but were desperately looking for a long-term investment. We are very impressed with the Britax ...
