Britax Marathon 70 Safety Features
- The SafeCell Technology consists of engineered cells placed at the base of the seat and meant to compress in case of an accident, lowering the gravity center and counteracting the forward movement of the seat.
- The 360 Degree Protection – should the worse happen, it is important to know that your baby will be safe. The Britax Marathon 70 Convertible Car Seat includes key elements that work together to make sure that, in case of an accident, no harm can come to your child from any direction and:
- Your child remains in the vehicle, the force of the impact being diminished,
- The crash force is diverted,
- Your child’s body is slowed down and protected,
- Your child’s brain and spinal cord are secured.
- The integrated steel bars from the structure of the Britax Marathon 70 reinforce the connection with the vehicle seat, minimizing the risks for forward flexing. They are accompanied by the durable Versa – Tether system steadying the top of the Marathon 70 car seat, in order to prevent it from rotating forward and to prevent the crash force from affecting your child.
- The Side Impact Protection – You can never know when someone runs into you from one side, damaging the car and jeopardizing the life of your baby. While there is nothing you can do about the car, you can protect your baby due to the Marathon 70’s rigid shell with EPP lining and deep side protective walls. These elements will work together to protect the head and the chest of your child, distributing the crash forces on a larger area and shielding your baby from intruding objects.
Britax Marathon 70 Comfort Features
Excellent fit – whether your baby is only a few months or already three or four years old, the unique design allowing both front and rear reclining, the high density foam interior, the plush covers and the special insertion for infant positioning will make sure he/she enjoys excellent comfort both when watching the landscape run behind and when taking a nap.
The two buckles and the 5 point harness with ten height setting levels will watch over your child’s safety and your peace of mind while on the road.
Simple Installation and Use – you don’t have to be an engineer, you don’t need any special skills: the latch connectors are installed quickly, simply and tight, while uninstalling them only requires the push of a button.
You just connect the built-in lock-offs to the lap and shoulder belt of your vehicle’s back seat and you’re ready to go. As far as the harness and the buckles adjustment are concerned, one hand will be enough and the process won’t take more than a couple of seconds.

Downsides
- At first sight, the price seems a bit spicy. Of course, nothing good is for free. The actual question here is what matters more to you: the money you pay or your kid’s safety and comfort, the quality and durability of this incredible device?
- Some customers complained that the Britax Marathon 70 is difficult to install. Their reviews were indeed contradicted by other customers who swore to have had everything taken care of in a couple of minutes, but who are we to judge? The point is that you don’t install the seat every five minutes. Besides, the first time is the hardest. After that, it all falls under the power of habit.
- All in all, it must have been named “the Cadillac of car seats” for something. Is it quality? Is it durability? Is it comfort? Is it a smart combination of the three? That is for you to find out, and the best way to do it is ordering the amazing Britax Marathon 70 – your child deserves the best!
