Moooo!

Date of Review:  Sep 6, 2006
The Bottom Line: All Canadian approved car seats have to pass the same tests, so maybe it wasn't worth the $. But they do make great fabrics!
Review: I was putting my 19lb boy in his infant carrier that is good up to 22lbs the other day and noticed that the back label on the seat said it's only good for kids up to 26 inches! They don't advertise that anywhere on their site, packaging, etc.. just...

I couldn't love this seat more!

Date of Review:  Jan 26, 2007
The Bottom Line: An amazingly well constructed car seat that is easy to install/use with some of the cutest covers available. I constantly recommend it to friends, family and even strangers!
Review: I am in Canada and the restrictions and safety requirements are different than they are in the USA but some aspects about the seat are similar.

The Marathon is better in many regards. It has the longest seatback and highest harness slots...

Britax Cowmooflage Marathon is the Cat's Meow!

Date of Review:  May 4, 2008
The Bottom Line: I say definitely put the Britax Cowmooflage Marathon in your car -- and at the minimum, on the top of your list!
Review: As my long and lanky baby girl began to outgrow her infant carseat, I began my quest for a convertible carseat. My criteria? Safety, ease of use and ease on the eyes. I found all three in the Britax Cowmooflage Marathon!

As I said earlier,...

Worth every penny!

Date of Review:  Aug 14, 2009
The Bottom Line:

If you are considering a car seat you must try the Britax Marathon.  It is an amazing seat.

Review: This is the best car seat.  I bought it because a friend recommend it to me.  It fit in my Tahoe perfectly.  I have used it for the past 4 years.  My daughter is 49 lbs. and she still fits it perfectly.  I love this car seat because you only have to...

How great it is!!!

Date of Review:  Feb 15, 2007
The Bottom Line: This seat is worth the money for it's safety, comfort, and fun look and a good place to splurge for your child if you are able.
Review: Our daughter was getting ready to turn a year old and while she was still on the small side for weight, she was tall and needed to make the jump from her rear facing infant seat to a convertible car seat. We wanted the best on the market and did a...

Mooving on up

Date of Review:  Feb 3, 2008
The Bottom Line: If you have a baby who outgrows the snap in car seat, this is a nice comfy ride when rear-facing that feels very safe.
Review: Our baby girl was way too long and chubby for her Peg Perego SIP car seat by about 5 months. We bought this car seat because it was roomier and would last her even when she would be forward facing.

The fabric is very soft, the seat is very...

Moo-valous!

Date of Review:  Jan 7, 2008
The Bottom Line: Buy it! Your children and their safety are worth it!
Review: A friend of mine had a Britax Marathon, and raved about the safety features, but I felt that the cost was a bit prohibitive, especially since there were perfectly good car seats on the market for a fraction of the cost of a Britax seat. However, my...

Finally on Child #4, we got a Britax

Date of Review:  Dec 6, 2009
The Bottom Line: Nice seat with nice features, if you can afford them
Review: I'm a practical girl. I wasn't about to spend $250 on a car seat when there were $45 ones that did the job just fine. I know the prints are super cute and people raved about them, but we just weren't in a position to spend that amount on car seats...

Great car seat

Date of Review:  Nov 8, 2009
It's Good For: Long Trips, Infants, Toddlers, Preschoolers
Review: This is a great car seat! I purchased it to keep my son rear facing for as long as possible. He is over 2yrs old and 30lbs and still rear facing in it! Not appropriate for newborns, but will fit most infants around 6 months old.

It's Good For: Large Cars, Everyday Use, Small Cars, Infants, Toddlers, Short Trips, Travel, Long Trips, Preschoolers, Girls, Gifts, Boys, Newborn
Review: While the price tag is high and shocking at first, it is WELL worth it and you certainly get great bang for your buck. here is why. this seat can be used from newborn up to 4, 5, and even 6 years old. that means, you can use the seat all the way to...
