Product 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.

BRITAX: "Baby" does the Marathon.

Date of Review:  Apr 25, 2008
The Bottom Line: A durable and well designed car seat - albeit expensive and somewhat heavy.
Review: Our offspring apparently decided to be on the fast track for the transition from a baby seat to a convertible seat and as of the 9th month reached the 29" height limit of the Graco Snugride. The latter did a great service for the short time it fit...

Britax Marathon Convertible Car Seat - Free Shipping - Mariposa
The Britax Marathon is distinguished for its ability to keep your child in a harnessed restraint up to 65 pounds while maintaining Birtax’s legendary high standards of safety, comfort, and convenience. Like other Britax car seats, the Mrathon features the patented Versa-Tether® on its push-button release LATCH system providing the most security in both forward- and rear-facing positions. Highly recommended for children over 50 lbs., the Versa-Tether® anchors the top of the car seat, minimizing the possibility of a head injury. A patent-pending rip-stitch tether reduces G-force effects on the head and body in the event of an impact. The Marathon™ also offers the patented HUGS™ (Harness Ultra Guard) system which distributes webbing loads to reduce head movement and minimize the chance for webbing edge loading on the child's neck in the case of an impact. In addition, the sculpted base ensures a perfect fit in almost any vehicle, and built-in vehicle belt lock-offs make installing the car seat in your veh
