Convertible Car Seat

Looking to get DD into a convertible carseat now, looking for some recommendations. I'd love to hear why you chose it and/or why you love/hate it! Thanks!

Re: Convertible Car Seat

I have the Britax Marathon & love it! We bought it because it got really good reviews for safety. It's also easy to use.

Convertible Car Seat

I have an Evenflo Symphony 65 and have no complaints about it at all. It has easy to adjust straps (no rethreading necessary, and it's easy to loosen/tighten as well) It can remain rear facing up to 40 pounds, forward facing with harnesses up to 65 pounds, and then is a highback belt positioning booster up to 100 pounds. It has an adjustable head rest so even taller children will fit in the sear for a long time. The LATCH system is super easy to connect to the car. The directions are clear and consice as well. Also, while most seats expire after 4-5 years this seat doesn't until 8 years after manufacture date, so it will most likely be the only seat you will need (weight starts at 5 pounds to technically it can be used from birth)

Same here (although the automatic rethread of the Marathon is a nice perk).

I hear Britax are one of the safest. I just got Britax advocates for the girls on diapers.com for a great price. ($285 including tax and shipping was free)
