Conv. Car Seats....and ones that turn into boosters!

Recommend yours.

We have the Britax Marathon for Bella and I'm looking into a new one for Lola.

Just wonder what other ones are comparable to the Britax's.
I love the Marathon, so am not opposed to buying another.

Thanks! Chat Icon

ETA - Anyone know what the top rated ones out there are?

ETA - Which ones are top rated that turn into boosters??

(lol)

We have the Marathon for Jack.
We got two free Graco Comfort Sports (I think I told you the story of how that happened) so I think when the time comes I will put Jack in the Graco and Tyler in the Marathon.

And give Lola the MarathonChat Icon

The CS is great, we love ours, but it only goes to 40lbs (though our kids aren't close to that yet, but still....)

Nautilus is a great, easy to install combination seat for a forward facing child and it is also reasonbly priced.

we have the britax frontier. my little guy is in the decathalon right now and is too big for it so im going to switch him to the frontier too. its so much more comfortable for them both and they can grow with it. turns into a booster after 40 lbs.

While it can turn into a booster as low as 40lbs it does harness up to 80lbs.

I didn't recommend it because it can be a rather difficult install with the long and short belt paths.

I also forgot about the Recaro Young sport which also harnesses to 80lbs and converts to a booster.
