Why did you choose one over the other?

Re: Britax Marathon vs Boulevard
We have the Marathon in our car and the Boulevard in my mom's car.
I prefer the Marathon because I find it much harder to tighten and loosen the straps on the Boulevard. I even called about it under warranty, they sent me a new one and it was still hard. I think it just must be in the design.

Re: Britax Marathon vs Boulevard
No BTDT experience yet, but we just ordered the Boulevard (from Albeebaby.com, a really good deal w/free shipping!). Should be coming any day and we'll be switching DD into it then. We have the Roundabout now and while she's still very comfy in it, we'd need a new bigger one soon and the price was right!

Those are great deals (I wish it was the Lauren pattern though!) - it may make me pull trigger sooner than later!

Yeah, unfortunately this was excluded from their 15% off sitewide sale, which would have been even better obviously!
Bummer about the pattern...we got the Meghan pattern....again, haven't gotten it yet (has shipped though) but I'm sure it's nice.
I ordered our current Britax from there too and was very happy...no problems, they were fast and free shipping is great!

Re: Britax Marathon vs Boulevard
I have the Boulevard and I love it. There were two additional features of the Boulevard that were the deciding factors.
Infant Body Pillow for infant positioning and a custom fit
Quick-Adjust Head Restraint & No-Rethread Harness - easily adjust the harness shoulder height and head restraint without disassembling the harness

Thank you!
Since Ann is small these seem to be helpful features!
