Convertible car seats
I am trying to find the best car seat for my car (Jeep Grand Cherokee 2014). It's very overwhelming, searching through websites and reviews to find the best one.
Does anyone have any recommendations? Or even some good websites to check out that will help me make a decision?

We have Britax Marathon in my car, a Graco Nautilus in DH's car, and a Evenflo Triumph LX in my in laws car since they watch him once a week. All 3 are great seats.

There is a vendor on here, carseatsafety, seems to know a lot about the car seats and what models are good for what car. Maybe FM

I also have the Britax Marathon and I like it. There were a few recline positions for when it is rear facing. DD seems comfortable in it.

You can check out carseat.org and search posts about your particular car to see what seats people like or don't like.
We have the graco mysize70 and it works well in DH's jeep patriot. It's easy to install and adjust, DD is comfy, and it's definitely more affordable than a britax.

We just bought DS the Britax Marathon. It seems very popular, the reviews were good and the seat seemed good when we checked it out.

Just wanted to jump in here for two things. One to answer the question, and two I am not a vendor, I am a certified child passenger safety technician with 16 year and over 16,000 seat experience..
Go with the Britax line - Marathon or Boulevard. Works best with the Jeep.

I broke my own rule - did not get all the information. How old is your child?

Thanks. My son is turning 11 months next week. Right now we have the Britax Marathon for DH's car (Chevy Equinox). I was looking at the Graco Size4Me for mine, or taking the Britax and possibly getting him a different carseat.

I love the Graco line but for both cars I would lean towards the Marathon - it will fit better. At the very least, keep the Marathon in the Equinox.
