• Energy-absorbing versa-tether features a staged-release tether webbing to slow the forward movement, reducing the crash forces reaching the child, and a two-point attachment to minimize forward rotation while anchoring the top of the child seat

6 of 6 people found the following review helpful EXCELLENT CAR SEAT!!!, February 26, 2012 By  buyitnow209 "C.Garcia" (Merced/Modesto,ca) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?) This review is from: Britax Marathon 70 Convertible Car Seat, Azalea (Baby Product) We LOVE this car seat!My daughter is VERY comfortable in it(33 lbs)It is installed with the latches and is very secure,doesn't even budge when trying to move it around.It is a little more difficult to install than older models(took me about 15 minutes to make sure all straps were tight,etc) but is worth the time and effort. I noticed a few upgrades vs older models,smaller things that really make a difference. 1.The slide up and down harness adjustments,TOTALLY AWESOME! 2.The little elastic on the belly pad,TOTALLY AWESOME!(the one on our older roundabout fell off constantly and finally got lost. 3.The strap tension tightener is under the cover and in a way that the child can't loosen it and become unsafe. 4.the belt holder for seat belt in the vehicle is kind of odd,couldn't figure it out.

Cabrera (Bellingham, WA USA) - See all my reviews    This review is from: Britax Marathon 70 Convertible Car Seat, Azalea (Baby Product) Britax has outdone themselves with the Marathon 70. We've owned 4 of the original Marathons (now called 'Classic' model). One of them was over 3 years old and started having trouble with the crotch strap latch not latching properly, thus making the car seat unusable. Even though the original warranty is only a year, Britax swapped out our Marathon Classic with a Marathon 70 - shipped to us 2nd Day Air, at no cost to us, whatsoever. They even let us pick the fabric style. Needless to say, I'm impressed with their customer service and response. I love the Marathon 70. My favorite new feature is that ability to adjust the shoulder harness height without having to remove the seat from the car. These car seats are top of the line, ultra padded, and safe as can be. Yes, they are expensive, but if you ever are in an accident, you will never regret the money you spent. What's an extra $100 to have your child walk away unharmed from a big accident?
