  • Comfy and pretty easy to install once you figure it out
Color: Mod Ivory
We have two and they are great. Follow instructions and watch a video online to actually see how to install correctly. Very adjustable and comfortable. It is a big seat though (and wide), so check dimensions if you have a narrower vehicle. We installed in the middle back seat and it doesn't leave a lot of elbow room, but it's ok. Can always move to the side seat, if needed, but middle is safest. ... show more

  • Great Car seat!
Color: Mod Ivory
It’s so easy to install which was important to me for when our sitter needs to switch it over to her car. It’s nice to know that it is properly installed every time within a few minutes. I like that we can keep it for so long because it grows with him. I also love how soft and comfortable it is for my son. I really like that it matches my car and it definitely looks/feels high quality. Another plus is that it’s washable! That’s a must with a toddler. Last but not least I was looking for a “non toxic” car seat and after much research I decided this one was the best overall without spending a lot more on the Nuna. Overall very satisfied with my purchase and would highly recommend this car seat. ... show more

  • Incredibly easy to install SECURELY.
So I bought this because I read some good reviews, installed it, and was totally happy with it ... and THEN, I bought a second convertible car seat, which also had good reviews (but was much cheaper), and that's when I found out what it's like to install MOST car seats. Holy crap! Now I have seen what the other side is like. It turns out that the hard part of installing a convertible car seat is not figuring out where to route the belt... instead, the hardest part is TIGHTENING the belt sufficiently to allow it to hold this rather LARGE device stationary. How tight does the belt need to be? It needs to be INCREDIBLY tight -- tight enough to compress the car seat against your upholstery. For most car seats, finding a way to achieve the requisite level of tightness takes a LOT of struggling, experimentation, and weird bodily contortions. This is true regardless of if you use a car seat belt or the LATCH (a.k.a. ISOFIX) system to secure your car seat -- you gotta pull HARD, and you gotta pull in exactly the right direction, and you gotta do it all while pressing down on the car seat itself to compress the upholstery underneath. I'm 6 feet tall and weigh over 200 lbs, so I'm not a small guy; yet, I just damn near broke my back trying to secure my other (newer and cheaper) car seat into the back of my Toyota Camry. ENTER the Britax ClickTight system! The ingenious thing about the ClickTight is that the seat-bottom, which opens like a hatch during installation, serves as a self-tightening and self-locking system for your CAR seat belt. You pop the hatch open, you route the belt through the holes, you wiggle the seat so it's well seated, and then ... you close the hatch. Voila! Your belt has been automatically tightened, with the assistance of some nice cam-lever-ish action that converts the moderate force of closing the hatch to a MUCH higher force that tightens AND locks your car's seat belt to the car seat. You don't even need to enable the locking mode on your seat belt (although you can), because the ClickTight has locked the two pieces of the belt together for you. Although the Britax Marathon ClickTight comes equipped with LATCH/ISOFIX, you don't actually need to use the LATCH system with this car seat. In fact, the manufacturer recommends using your car's seat belt with the ClickTight system in lieu of the LATCH system, because the performance of the former is so much better than the latter. Oh, and baby sits like a king in this thing -- it looks and feels so comfortable that I want one for myself. It's also super easy to adjust -- the adjustable harness is awesome. Drawbacks? It's not cheap, and it's hella heavy. But honestly, I couldn't be happier with this car seat, especially now that I've experienced how hard it is to install car seats with more traditional securing mechanisms. This thing is a game-changer! ... show more

  • couldn't be easier to install...
Color: Mod Black
I searched and searched for months to find the right car seat for my almost 1 year old. the safety ratings were enough to convince me to go with Britax, but the click tight system is literally a dream. i am almost 8 mos pregnant. yes this car seat is on the heavier side, luckily we dont have to switch it out often and if we do my husband is usually around and if not nothing i cant handle. I cant say how amazing and easy it is to install securely/correctly. i never have to worry if my husband did it right. it's perfect everytime and for that its well worth it. Baby girl seems happy in it, soft and comfy materials, i havent had to take it apart to wash yet, but ill add to my review when that time comes. ... show more

  • Good quality, easy to install, IMPOSSIBLE TO CLEAN
I've had this car seat for a year now. Used it rear-facing to start and recently turned it to forward-facing. My thoughts: INSTALLATION - Easy and secure with seat belt! I bought this to replace a Graco Extend-2-Fit, which I found impossible to get a secure seat-belt fit with (I want my kid in the middle seat, where there are no latch hooks). This Britax seat requires very little tightening of the seat belt to get it secure since the seat "clicks" over it. No more of the awkward foot-on-the-seat rocking and pulling until your arms feel like they'll fall off! COMFORT - My toddler really seems to like the seat. She's a little too young to verbalize complaints about it, but she's always happen to get in it, so I'll assume it's comfy. CLEANING - Here's where things go downhill. My toddler had a recent puke incident. THE HORROR, THE HORROR. It's like the designers of this seat thought of how many crevices they could create to collect puke, then doubled it. Had to remove all padding (it's like 5 freaking pieces, so I needed a video to get it back on), use cotton swabs in every hole and crevice I could find, then clean it all again because it still smelled of vomit. If I had it to do over, I'd look for a seat with a single pad that covers the whole frame so that there's nowhere for fluids to drip through. EXTRAS - WTF, Britax? No cupholder? Really? This thing is awfully expensive to lack a cupholder, and the (very expensive) one you can add on has terrible reviews. *sigh* Since secure installation and safety are the most important thing to me, I give this seat 4 stars. However, I'd consider the Chicco NextFit if I had it to do over. ... show more

  • Safe, Easy & Comfortable
I feel good knowing my son is safe in this car seat. He is 8mo now but at his 6mo he was already 30in long. Companies need to easily show their max length not just weight! It’s challenging finding that info!! Anyways, he’s a tall boy and we needed a special rear facing seat for his length. I’m glad we got this one. Pros: EASIEST and most CONFIDENT securing system, easy seatbelt, easy headrest adjustment, clear recline level, nice design, heavy duty, easy to remove cushions for cleaning, very cushioned for his comfort and great RANGE for MAX LENGHT AND WEIGHT for both rear and front facing so we can use this for a long time! Cons: while being rear facing it’s difficult to adjust the recline position bc your hand gets stuck between your car and the carseat, it’s heavy to carry from one car to the next. Side notes: the securing is great but I had a hard time at first preventing the seat from lifting on one side bc it was too tight on the other side. My problem/solution was to not to enable the safety lock (from your car belt) until AFTER you’ve closed and secured your carseat. Then when it’s where you want it, pull your seatbelt until it locks. Not sure if that’s common knowledge but I was the first of my family to have a baby so I didn’t know that before. Hope that helps someone new too! Overall: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, would purchase again if I ever needed to. ... show more

  • Favorite seat ever
This is our first convertible seat after using a Graco infant seat for the first 1.5 years. I was looking for a breathable material because my child is always hot and sweaty. I liked that this seat had that option and it seems meshy enough that it *might* work. The biggest reason we chose this one is the strap to tighten it pulls so smoothly and effortlessly. We tried it in the store and were blown away how much easier it was. I got it 3 months ago and I’m loving everything about it. The Graco infant seat was annoying to adjust and I felt I had to pull very hard to get it right enough for my child’s safety, but this is so smooth and easy to pull. This alone has been such a stress reliever when leaving the house. My second favorite feature is the Clicktight mechanism. I’ve heard how difficult and annoying it is to switch convertible seats between cars, but I’m not even joking that it takes two minutes to move this one. I was surprised that it recommends the seatbelt rather than the latch system. It’s SO much faster and easier. No standing on the seat and tugging a strap to tighten it (y’all know you’ve done it!) or breaking your hands trying to undo the latch hooks buried in the abyss of your seat. You just stretch the seatbelt across and close the seat down to clamp it in. I don’t know how it works but it gets a tight fit every single time with zero wiggle. I watched for sales for a long time (these rarely are discounted if at all) and finally bit the bullet on Cyber Monday. I paid about $220. I have no regrets! ... show more

  • Saved us from having to buy new carseats or car 🙌
I love how easy these are to install and the narrowness of the seat is a HUGE bonus! We're adding a third kiddo to the family and we'll be able to fit 3 across the backseat of our Hyundai Santa Fe 🙌

  • ClickTight installation is well worth the price
I have the "Advocate" for my car and have LOVED it. It feels solid, doesn't move an inch when installed and is very easy to adjust height as my son grows. It's also comfortable and as easy to clean as any carseat. When my son started pre-school, I needed a second carseat that could go back and forth between a few babysitters who occasionally pick him up from school. This carseat is big and heavy so I let myself get talked into a lightweight, lower cost Evenflo seat. Getting those installed securely is a nightmare and it seemed like the straps were always tangled - this did nothing for my feeling of security when someone else was driving my child. I got this Britax Marathon ClickTight on sale, installed it in the babysitter's car fairly quickly and will sleep well tonight knowing my child will be safe and secure in this seat. If you're planning to move the seat between more than one car or have less than expert folks install it, spend the money on this seat!!! Update 2020: I still love this so much. A good friend gave me a brand new Chicco version of this for my second child and I really tried to use it but nothing installs as rock solid as the click right. I just bought another one. If you want something that you can feel confident will always be securely installed by you, grandparents, a babysitter- this is the car seat you want. 100% worth the cost. ... show more

I love love love this car seat. Feel like my son is totally safe when riding in it. Although, if you’re going to move it back in forth from car to car, this isn’t the seat for you.

  • Recommend for small car
This car seat was a breeze to install! I have a 2014 Chevy Cruze, which is tiny, but this car seat fits nicely! I tested it out on my big kid and am now currently using it for my infant. My older child loved it, he thought it was so comfortable. My infant seems to like it as well, no tears! If you have a small car and need a more narrow seat, this is it. After lots of research on car seat dimensions and safety, this seemed to be the best choice for my needs... the only draw back i can think of is if you’re tall or have a tall passenger, this seat might not work so well rear facing behind that seat in the “light blue” setting. I have it behind the passenger seat which I moved all the way up and the back rest is very upright in order for the car seat to be where it needs to be. Other than that, no complaints. ... show more
