Re: Marathon, Boulevard or Decathlon

I think that there are just different levels of carseats that Britax has .... and the Boulevard and Decathalon are just more expensive versions.

Personally we have the Marathon. It holds up to 65 lbs, is a piece of cake to install (I can't not stress that enough) and is very comfy for our daughter. I think the Marathon is probably the most popular seat that they have.

Re: Marathon, Boulevard or Decathlon

I know the only difference (besides price) between the Marathon and Decathlon is the pad that goes in the seat for a newborn to support the head. So if you aren't using an infant seat it MAY be worth it other than that save the $50

This is true the only difference is the padding..
If you go to bestbuybaby.com they have discontinued color patterns for 219.00 no tax no shipping you won't do better than that in stores!!!

Re: Marathon, Boulevard or Decathlon

I have the bouvlevard and there is a difference when you have to adjust the straps for height, my seat there is just a knob that I turn and it raises the headrest but the others must be manually adjusted. The side impact protection is also what sold us on the seat. It is defiantly expensive but well worth the money.

Re: Marathon, Boulevard or Decathlon

Thank you all soooooooooo much. I think I am going to go with the marathon.

I sometimes wish there was just one of everything...one cradle, one crib, one car seat, etc etc...life would be boring but I would get a lot more work done!!

Thanks everyoneChat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
