Recommend your Convertible Car Seat

Hi all - looking to move my DS out of his Chicco Key Fit 30 into a convertible car seat. I have my older DS in a Britax Marathon but I can't say I love the seat, so just wanted to see what other options people recommend. TIA!!

I had an Evenflo that I liked and now we have DS in a Graco 3 in one booster.

IMO if I had to do it again I'd get one that transitions from the convertible tot he booster so that you aren't buying another seat.

My older one has the Marathon, too.

I got my younger one the Graco 4Ever seat and I LOVE it. Super easy to install, way easier to buckle and adjust the straps, and it has 2 cup holders that my DD likes to put her toys or socks in. Chat Icon

We have had

1. one of the Graco hybrids - I liked it, easy to strap DS in, but it was a pain to install
2. chicco nextfit - I do not like it. I find it hard to tighten the straps adequately
3. britax marathon clicktight - easy to install and easy to strap DS in

Re: Recommend your Convertible Car Seat

We have 4 seats for my DD:

My car has a 4ever which I LOVE. I will be getting another of these for my younger DD when it's time.

My mother's car has a Nextfit. I like it, but it doesn't have cup holders and the sides are very high.

MIL's car has a Graco Milestone - I like this one too. It's just like the 4ever but doesn't turn to a NBB.

Then I have a Britax Marathon CT as a spare for when my father watches DD. I like it because of the ease of installation, but it's heavy.

I have the graco contender for my car. I really like it and my mom is considering buying one for her car too because she doesn't like an older model britex she currently has.

Just be careful, this one doesn't rear face.

We went with the Graco contender for dd2 but haven't installed it yet. It has good reviews.

I have the Britax Boulevard in my car and DH has the Graco Milestone. We do extended rear facing and DD just turned 4. I think we're going to turn her now, but I purchased another Milestone because she always says she likes her daddy's car seat better.
