Beautiful and easiest car seat
July 23, 2020
This was by far the easiest install on a car seat ever! My husband did it with no problem and I love the straps can be easily adjusted without removing anything!
Pros

Easy to Move, Install and Use
June 23, 2020
This car seat is easy to move, install, and buckle. We move it back and forth between our car and grandparents' car in 5 minutes (and it also gives us a chance to dump out any snacks that have snuck into or under the seat). Our little one moved into it at about 11 months and seems very comfortable. We are able to easily get her out when sleeping, which is a plus as well.

Adorable car seat at a great price. My 21 lb 7 month old seems very comfy in it and transitioned from newborn seat to this no problem. Got it with a coupon which makes it even better!

Great carseat
May 3, 2020
Great car seat. Pros easy to clean, easy to buckle in, toddler likes the car seat and seems comfortable in it Cons. The cover part keeps coming off and it’s brand new (I had a older one same print marathon style but not click tight and cover never came off in the 5 years I had it. I just got new because I was in a accident)

Great Features
April 22, 2020
I just installed this Marathon Clicktight. Easy installation with seat belts. A bit confused about the directions to use the car's latch system, so I used the seat belt method. Compared to my last car seat, this one is so easy to use the harness release button and adjust the harness buckle and harness height. Lots of padding and safety features and a harness release button that even a grandma can push easily. My only negative is that the installation instructions are "generic" so I didn't know if a anti-rebound bar was supposed to be included. I had to call customer service to find out that the bar does not come with this model. As with other user guides, the images included with installation directions are very hard to understand. Overall, I am very satisfied with this carseat. My 26-pound granddaughter still fits perfectly in the rear-facing position.

Easy installation
April 14, 2020
I absolutely love this car seat. It takes maybe 10 seconds to install and is completely fool proof! I also love how easy it is to take a party and clean. It’s heavy but they makes me feel like it’s safe and doing it’s job on keeping my child safe!
Pros
  • Easy installation, easy to clean, looks nice
Cons
  • Heavy

The Clicktight makes install so easy. Previous car seats I have not been able to install with confidence and always had to have my husband do it. Not this one!

Terrible fabric-staining
January 17, 2020
Maybe I should of thought about a lighter color when I bought the cowmooflage print but couldn't resist. Stains terribly, I've had this seat a few years and it looks so dirty even after washing it. Word to the wise, get something dark in color, very disappointing since the seat is in great shape other wise but is pushing me to buy another seat because I can't stand to look at how dirty it has become.

Britax click tight is the best. Hands down. I move the seat between vehicles often enough to care and to not want to search for the latches in seats every time I want to install the seat.

Recline handle came off
December 15, 2019
Bought this for my son when he turned one. Less than a year later the recline handle came off. I can't seem to get it back on and can't adjust the seat. This car seat has just been a pain since I got it... the cover never stays in right and always gets in the way as well. If anyone can help me out, that would be great.

Amazing seat
November 27, 2019
We tried numerous brands of seats. We ultimately decided on this one in-store at a Buy Buy Baby but the coupons were exempt. No higher upgraded version of this seat or any other fabric option for this specific seat was AS comfortable and squishy and plush as THIS very specific one (Verve). It installs fantastic (we are used to Diono) and allows her to RF very upright. More importantly it doesn’t dig in to her legs (the One4Life and even some of the higher levels of fancyness Britax seats did) and the strap set up is amazing - no digging in to her neck. We tried SO many seats for these particular points and ONLY this specific one checked all the boxes (not Chicco, not Graco, not Diono)... so we are happy campers! Will be buying another. And will also be swapping my older kids out for Britax. We are Bri-lievers now - Britax all the way!

Excellent Value, Excellent Safety Rating, Great for Growing Kids, Easy to Install - Highly Recommend!
October 31, 2019
We have purchased six of these car seats for all our vehicles & grandmas' vehicles. We did a lot of research into safety ratings and these were very highly rated, which was the primary reason we bought this model. I love that they can be used for little ones rear-facing or forward-facing up to 65 pounds; we'll be able to get at least five years of use out of them. The first one we bought is now three years old and still in amazing shape. The cover is easy to remove and wash. The shoulder harness positions can be adjusted upward and the crotch buckle moved forward so it remains comfortable for bigger kids. That they are easy to install, easy to use, look great, and my kids love them are bonuses. Highly recommend!
Pros
  • Excellent safety rating
  • Easily adjustable
  • Easy to install
  • Cover comes off easily for washing
  • Buckles easily
Best Uses
  • Growing kids
Cons
  • No cup holder

Good Value for the money
October 28, 2019
The car seat has a lot of functionality to it, and seems comfortable for my baby. I like the many recline options. I took a star off because it hard to get your finger down so far in the hole to release the straps.

Great Car Seat
October 18, 2019
I initially picked this car seat because it came in cow print (we have a dairy farm) but after reading all the reviews on Britax products I will never buy any other brand of car seat. The safety reviews on this car seat are top notch. My child fits very comfortably in this car seat. The only downside is it is rather heavy and hard to transfer between cars (we bought a second car seat for my husbands vehicle). Overall I would recommend this car seat!

This was purchased for Nana’s car. Just as easily to install as my Advocate. Also, now my little girl is more grown, I feel it is equally as safe for her. It doesn’t always make the click sound when secure though, which makes me wary at times since my mom fastens the harness when bringing her back to me. Overall, I am satisfied with the purchase and love all my Britax car seats and strollers!

A great car seat
September 19, 2019
Once you figure it out, the installation is quite easy. The car seat is large (feels substantial and safe), and our little one is easy to get in and out without much fuss. The size, however, means that in our VW Golf, the passenger seat has to be pushed almost all the way forward for the car seat to fit in the back seat behind it.

We love Britax due to safety features and quality. Overall, the seat is great. We like it’s multiple recline positions, cushy seat pads, and smooth tightening harness. The seat is heavy and is a bit of a head scratcher to install at first. Once figured out, it wasn’t too bad.

Car seats feel safe and secure. Installation was quick after watching a few videos online. It is easy to get child in and out. The seat is bulkier than the infant rear facing bucket so less room in the car. Happy with the purchase.
Pros
  • Safety
  • Sturdy
  • Easy to put child in
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Bulky for small car
  • No cup holder

Perfect for a Subaru

Although it was tough to install in the car which was partly due to my ability, once in it's great for my granddaughter. I like that you can tilt it into different positions - just couldn't do that myself unless the seat was on the concrete floor and not already in the car.

We had an infant Britax car seat which was worth the price! We were struggling a little when needing to purchase the convertible one so we first bought a Safety 1st one but there is no comparison! Britax is an amazing brand! The car seat is built very well and is very strong! It is really a beautiful car seat overall and was super easy to install!
Pros
  • Easy to install.
  • Very strong, build with metal not just plastic.
  • Fit inside both cars with room.
  • Looks beautiful.
Cons
  • None

I have the Britax Marathon Clicktight convertible car seat for my toddler and I just bought a second one for my infant transferring out of her infant carseat. I loved my son’s, his color style is no longer available, but I got my daughter the striped finish on sale via Albee Baby. Since I’m familiar with the product, it was easy to install and set her up comfortably right away. It’s easy to adjust the height and buckles. I love how sturdy and safe it feels and I have comfort knowing Britax is known for quality and safety. It is quite large and does take up a ton of space, particularly when it’s rear facing..the person in front of the seat doesn’t have a ton of room to move their seat back since it needs to tilt a certain amount while rear facing. So if you have a compact car or small SUV (I have the VW Tiguan) just take into account the room you’ll have left for other passengers and car seats. I can squeeze myself in between both the Britax Marathon car seats in the back seat when we have a guest in the car, but I am pretty thin and have narrower hips. There’s no possible room for a 3rd car seat in the backseat. The size of the car seat doesn’t bother me, and soon we will be getting a larger vehicle anyway. I would highly recommend this car seat, as I have purchased two of them. Also, Albee Baby processed the order and had my seat delivered very promptly (only took 2 days and I was able to get free shipping!).
Pros
  • Safety
  • Comfort
  • Easy installation
  • Easy adjustability
  • Style
Cons
  • Can?t take the whole cover off to throw in the wash
  • Doesn?t come with cup holder standard

Purchased this car seat as an additional seat for grandkids. It is larger than some seats and makes getting the two car seats and a booster in my Lexus a challenge. Our other Britax marathon made it through 3 grandkids and we need an additional car seat for the last baby who is too big for his infant seat. Would definitely purchase again.
Pros
  • Easy install
  • The harness is easier to use
  • Grows with kids.
