The Marathon boasts an easy-to-manage design and enhanced features that can be safely used in cars with or without the LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) system. For one, it provides built-in lock-off clips that keep the seat tightly in place when using only traditional seatbelts at installation. Secondly, a simple handle pull allows the car seat base to be reclined when rear-facing, and soft padding and a stain resistant, removable and washable cover keep things cozy and stress-free. In addition, the five-point harness system is made with strong polyester webbing, has tangle free straps, and fits snugly over your baby's shoulders, collarbone and hips to provide a secure fit. There are also four adjustable height positions so the seat can truly grow with your baby. Finally, the one-hand recline adjustment allows for proper positioning, which helps ensure your child's safety. HUGS for Optimum Safety and Support
When it comes to safety, the Marathon truly delivers. First, the patented floating HUGS (Harness Ultra Guard) system exceeds U.S. safety standards by reducing forward head movement as it gently cushions the neck and chest with soft padding--a feature that's particularly important both in the case of an accident and during nap time. In addition, this system better distributes the webbing loads, reducing head movement and minimizing harness irritation on baby's neck in case of an impact. HUGS also reduces the chance of improperly positioning the chest clip. Versa-Tether for Additional Security
Marathon also offers Britax's patented Versa-Tether, an anchor aid that provides additional security in the forward facing position for children weighing more than 50 pounds. The Versa-Tether fastens the top of the car seat to factory installed automobile anchor points, minimizing the possibility of a head injury in the event of impact. This system also allows for rear-facing tethering to help keep the seat consistently stable. Weighing 16.5 pounds, and measuring 19.5 x 27.5 x 25.5 inches (WxHxD), the Marathon is also Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 213 compliant, meaning it adheres to a strict set of quality control and safety standards, and is approved for airline travel. The Marathon comes with a 1-year limited warranty. The Marathon is also available in the following colors: Onyx, Mariposa, Tan Swirl, Crocodile, Mossy Oak, All Star Blue, New Denim, and Granite.

 excellent car seat December 2, 2008
the car is perfect. Easy to install and high quality. You won't regret to pay the extra bucks for it.
Great seat December 1, 2008
I have several friends who have this seat and have been very pleased. I am as well. It is easy to install and my son appears to be very comfortable. Well, at least the screaming has stopped when we put him in the car =)
I don't know that I would put a newborn in it though. We started using it around 3 months (12 1/2 pounds and 25 1/2") and would have liked to be able to tighten the shoulder straps just a bit more.
Would buy again for a 2nd child.
our 3rd Britax November 29, 2008
the best- comfy, covers clean like charm, I always know he is the safest he can be...our 3rd Britax, 2 marathons, 1 roundabout...the a pair of frontiers will be the next...love them!
Great carseat- easy to install and use! November 29, 2008
We bought this carseat after our Graco wouldn't fit securely in our 2008 Honda CRV. This one went in much easier and is very sturdy. Also, the straps are easy to adjust and baby seems very comfortable. I also really like the velcro hold backs for the straps. Makes it easy to load/unload the baby.
Great seat! November 28, 2008
We are so happy with this seat. It is so much more comfortable for my 11 month old. I love the colors and the fact that there is velcro on the inside of the seat, which holds the straps away from my baby as I am loading her in and out of the seat. I would recommend this seat to anyone!
