  Safety first

  There are many car seats on the market. Over the years, I have ...learned that, with certain things, you get what you pay for. This Marathon G4.1 is a replacement of the previous model. I had to dispose of the old one due to a minor fender bender. I would recommend this to anyone; even those who are on a budget. The protection value, the comfort value and the ability to adjust the seat as the child grows, is very good. Sure, you could easily spend hundreds more on different brands, but that is not something I could afford. This car seat is in no way middle of the road in my opinion and it is certainly much better than most that I have looked at. I would definitely recommend this to anyone that loves their child as this is a worthwhile investment.

  We love this car seat!

  Such a comfortable new car seat for my little one. Sh...e is very petite and still under 22 lbs. at a year and a half, so the removable infant booster cushion is great until she surpasses the 22 lb. mark and we can remove it. We had been using a Britax infant car seat/carrier from our travel system since birth, but it became too hard to get her in and out although she had not exceeded the weight limit, so the logical next step was a convertible car seat in order to still be rear facing. She loves her new seat and seems to enjoy getting into it, which is a big plus. The harness seems much more comfortable for her, easy to adjust the placement of the straps as well as loosen them, and there is plenty of room for her to grow into this seat. It fits perfectly rear facing in my compact Kia Soul, which I was initially worried about before I received the car seat, but there is room to spare. Aside from being comfortable for my little one, the car seat is very well built, easy to install, and seems very safe and sturdy, which puts my mind at ease. This was a great purchase!

  Upgraded

  Love this seat, it was recommended by our sitter and it's awesome! ...Easy to install and super easy to get my daughter in and out! So much better than the infant seat we were using for the last year.

  Safe but a little more beat up than expected

  I was looking for a baby seat f...or my granddaughter that had a back tether for a rear facing seat, and this fit the bill. The price was good, and I was able to install it with a bit of difficulty, more the fault of the small car, and having to improvise a place to attach the tether. As it was used, it was a bit beat up, but the baby does not seem to mind, and I feel much better driving her knowing she's safe no matter what. Rear tethers for rear facing seats are not common in the US and it took a bit to find one, but glad I did.
