Pros: EASIEST and most CONFIDENT securing system, easy seatbelt, easy headrest adjustment, clear recline level, nice design, heavy duty, easy to remove cushions for cleaning, very cushioned for his comfort and great RANGE for MAX LENGHT AND WEIGHT for both rear and front facing so we can use this for a long time!
Cons: while being rear facing it’s difficult to adjust the recline position bc your hand gets stuck between your car and the carseat, it’s heavy to carry from one car to the next.
Side notes: the securing is great but I had a hard time at first preventing the seat from lifting on one side bc it was too tight on the other side. My problem/solution was to not to enable the safety lock (from your car belt) until AFTER you’ve closed and secured your carseat. Then when it’s where you want it, pull your seatbelt until it locks. Not sure if that’s common knowledge but I was the first of my family to have a baby so I didn’t know that before. Hope that helps someone new too!
Overall: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, would purchase again if I ever needed to.
Pros:
-It is easy to install, like super easy, it should never take more than a minute to buckle in. I currently have mine rear facing still, so I can’t speak too much on forward facing, but it looks like a similar process.
-There are a lot of adaptions to cater to different aged/sized toddlers.
-it is appealing and soft, very high quality.
Cons:
-Biggest issue so far is that it is a bit difficult getting the baby in and out of the car seat. I have a 2016 model Jeep Cherokee and it’s just a little to tight of a space, I end up breaking a sweat in the morning getting the baby in/out the car. It’s the size of the padding by the head, it is just not the easiest to navigate around.
-I can’t compare to other car seats, but this is one pretty heavy and bulky, it sucks moving it from car to car. This is seperate from installing, the install is super simple, but moving it around is tough.
-if you dont pay attention, it is easy to ignore how the straps sit on baby. I noticed the straps start falling off the shoulders of baby. I lifted the chest buckle to sit above the nipple line, and that keeps the shoulder straps where they need to be.
In general, it’s a good car seat, I bought it on sale and very happy I used that opportunity to not buy full price. Don’t overthink your purchases!
It turns out that the hard part of installing a convertible car seat is not figuring out where to route the belt... instead, the hardest part is TIGHTENING the belt sufficiently to allow it to hold this rather LARGE device stationary. How tight does the belt need to be? It needs to be INCREDIBLY tight -- tight enough to compress the car seat against your upholstery. For most car seats, finding a way to achieve the requisite level of tightness takes a LOT of struggling, experimentation, and weird bodily contortions. This is true regardless of if you use a car seat belt or the LATCH (a.k.a. ISOFIX) system to secure your car seat -- you gotta pull HARD, and you gotta pull in exactly the right direction, and you gotta do it all while pressing down on the car seat itself to compress the upholstery underneath. I'm 6 feet tall and weigh over 200 lbs, so I'm not a small guy; yet, I just damn near broke my back trying to secure my other (newer and cheaper) car seat into the back of my Toyota Camry.
ENTER the Britax ClickTight system! The ingenious thing about the ClickTight is that the seat-bottom, which opens like a hatch during installation, serves as a self-tightening and self-locking system for your CAR seat belt. You pop the hatch open, you route the belt through the holes, you wiggle the seat so it's well seated, and then ... you close the hatch. Voila! Your belt has been automatically tightened, with the assistance of some nice cam-lever-ish action that converts the moderate force of closing the hatch to a MUCH higher force that tightens AND locks your car's seat belt to the car seat. You don't even need to enable the locking mode on your seat belt (although you can), because the ClickTight has locked the two pieces of the belt together for you.
Although the Britax Marathon ClickTight comes equipped with LATCH/ISOFIX, you don't actually need to use the LATCH system with this car seat. In fact, the manufacturer recommends using your car's seat belt with the ClickTight system in lieu of the LATCH system, because the performance of the former is so much better than the latter.
Oh, and baby sits like a king in this thing -- it looks and feels so comfortable that I want one for myself. It's also super easy to adjust -- the adjustable harness is awesome. Drawbacks? It's not cheap, and it's hella heavy. But honestly, I couldn't be happier with this car seat, especially now that I've experienced how hard it is to install car seats with more traditional securing mechanisms. This thing is a game-changer!

Posiblemente la seguridad provista es similar a Chicco . Usabilidad es muy buena , el sistema click tight es facil de usar. El valor agregado son los materiales.
