This is the second Britax Decathlon that we have purchased for our 13 months old daughter. We LOVE this seat. Now that she is facing forward it is even more an enjoyable ride! We feel very safe with our precious little one in this seat.

We had one similar before it just what we needed the price was OK , fast delivery and on time.

I bought this car seat when my son was 3 1/2 months old. He was growing too long for his infant seat. He is now 2 and still fits very comfortably. When I had my daughter I just assumed I would buy my son a booster seat and use this one for her, but my son still fits so nicely and this car seat is so safe we decided to just order another one for her. :)

I am excited to have the girly colors this time around too!

After much consideration, I purchased the Decathlon seat for my 9 month old child. I wanted the best as far as safety and comfort go, especially considering that we are planning on using this seat for several years. The Decathlon is a large seat, but not so much that it can't fit easily in my Subaru Forester. I'm not sure how people with smaller cars make it work. You can still sit two in the back seat on either side of the car seat, but it is tight. It does not affect the two front seats at all, and my husband and I are 6'1" and 5'10", so we have the seats pushed back pretty far.

The seat is comfortable and very plush. My baby is clearly secure and comfortable once in the seat. HOWEVER, it is incredibly hard to pull the straps tight once she is in it. I ended up fitting the straps to where they should be with my husband's help, and I just leave them there. I wiggle her in and out without changing the strap setting. I was hoping this would become easier once I turn the seat around to front facing, but I'm reading reviews that suggest otherwise. I am going to call Britax and ask about this today.

UPDATE: (Feb 12 09): I did call Britax to ask about the difficulty in tightening the harness once my child is in the seat. The customer service was OUTSTANDING. They made me happy about having bought a seat that I'm struggling with, which goes to show how nice they were. The woman told me to try snapping the black plastic cover off the back of the seat that covers the straps. She said it's not functional and sometimes will slow down the strap tightening. I did that, and the strap is still impossible to budge. I called back and they offered to send me either another Decathlon to try, or the model of my choice. I decided to try another Decathlon. It arrived 3 days later (they let me keep my original until it arrived, and they are paying for me to ship it back to them.) They told me to go ahead and keep the old seat cover, so now I have a cappuccino and a tiffany cover, which is a nice bonus. The new seat seems to move a little easier, but it's still tough to tighten.

I've done some research based on the other reviews, and I think the Decathlon is really the seat I want to keep, so we're going to work with it. I know it will be easier when we move it to front facing and I have room to give the belt a good yank. Another user gave the tip of holding the release button with one hand while pulling tight with the other - genius!

So overall, a great seat, great service. Just a little tough to tighten. The other features outweigh the trouble, I believe. My daughter appears to be incredibly comfortable and never complains about getting into the seat. She sleeps in it like a, well, baby!

just started using the seat last week...everything seems fine...the only thing i am concerned about is the crotch strap. my son is 7 months old and is 30 inches and is already using the furtherest slot of the crotch positioner (there are 3 slots). just hope to get some good use out of the seat...

Customer Buzz
We did a ot of research on car seats. After all, they are expensive and you'll own this one for a long time compared to the infant seat. We had narrowed it down to the Marathon or Decatholon but decided to go with this one because one review said it was better with babies with chunky legs and allowed for adjusting of the crotch strap. Since I have a baby boy who weighs 23 pounds at 8 months I valued both options. He fits very comfortably in the car seat and I have not adjusted anything yet. I did read that the buckles get a little hard to release, and they definetly do not snap on and off easily, but I can live with it. I certainly wouldn't want anything that he could undo! I highly recommend this seat.

I ordered the sand color and it is beautiful and very plush. When you look at car seats, push on he seat itself; many brands look very plush on the sides but your baby ends up sitting on what feels like plastic covered fabric. The decatholon has a plush seat, making long road trips manageable, and with rear and forward facing options up to 65 pounds, we'll be logging quite a few miles with him in this seat!

Customer Buzz
Honestly, I wish I had gone with this carseat from the beginning, instead of the infant seat (which I could only use about 4 months). It's held up really well, my son is 3.5 and he's really tall for his age, and he still seems comfortable. One thing to note that if you are using this seat in rear-facing mode it's really large (which is ok for me in Jeep, not so ok in the Chrysler PT). Once it's forward facing, it wasn't a problem in the car either. It's held up, I've washed the cover in the machine and it came out perfectly.

Customer Buzz
Great product, my 4 month old fits in it great. The only drawback is that there is no level to tell you if the carseat is installed at the right angle. Other than that great!!

Customer Buzz
We had 2 Decathlons (Tiffany and Hampton prints) for my daughter, and I loved them. The material is plush, the buckles are easy to click in, and they are just nice seats. I bought 2 more in Sahara for my son, and it STINKS. The material is so flimsy that it feels like some cheapo thing without padding and the buckles stick when trying to click in or out. Had I know that the material was different, I would never have purchased this pattern. Shouldn't the material be the same quality over all their carseat fabrics??? What a waste of money since I now have to buy different covers. I won't have my son sitting in what feels like flamable material for the next 4 or 5 years.

Customer Buzz
Pros: crotch strap has 3 settings. Cons: too hard to adjust strap, cover doesn't come off. Recently spent months and months researching car seats for my growing son. I finally decided on the Decathlon - even though I had heard bad reviews regarding the adjuster strap. I had tried it out in my local baby store and had no problems so I felt it safe to go ahead and purchase it. Big mistake - once the car seat is installed, it's next to impossible to get the adjuster strap positioned correctly. I have a large SUV and even with the roomy interior, you can't pull it hard enough without being a contortionist. I even read the Britax FAQ advising to make sure you're pulling straight out (not from a side angle) and to make sure the strap isn't twisted and so on. Even so, both my husband and myself could not get it positioned properly without breaking a sweat. Also, I didn't realize that since the new model has a push button control for the strap, it's sewn to the fabric, therefore you can't take it off and wash it. I have since returned it and am desperately looking to find something equally as safe but easier to use. I loved the fact that the crotch position was adjustable - unlike the other Britax models. I wish they could combine the good things into just one car seat!

    My son is in the 90th percentile for height and weight, and had outgrown his infant-carrier car seat around 4 months of age. We've been using the Boulevard since then (he is now 16 months old). I purchased it especially because it can accommodate children up to a higher weight limit with the 5-point harness. It is large and pretty heavy if you need to move it from vehicle to vehicle; I wouldn't recommend it for really small cars. However, it's appropriate for a "good-sized" kid, and I always feel that my child is well-protected in it.

    I did have to turn this around from rear-facing to forward-facing before my child reached one year old, simply because he was too heavy for me to continue lifting in and out in the rear-facing position. He was already over 20 pounds at that point.

    We had no trouble figuring out how to use the 5-point harness, or how to put this in our car using a seatbelt. However, I had to take it to the police station to figure out how to install it in a vehicle that supports the LATCH system. (I'd never seen the LATCH thing before; if you're familiar with it, it might not be a problem.) I can never get the seat installed as tightly with a seatbelt as with the LATCH connectors, but that would probably be a problem with any car seat.

    I have taken the cover off and washed it once; it washed fine, but it took me about 15-20 minutes to get it back on. My toddler won't leave the "hug" pads on the straps, so I had to take them off. However, he seems perfectly secure without them.

    My child always seems comfortable in the car seat -- he definitely has "chunky" thighs, but we have not experienced any problem with the straps cutting into them. The seat is high up (in forward facing mode) so he can see everything.

    We've used this car seat constantly, and moved it from vehicle to vehicle quite a few times -- but it is not showing any signs of wear. When our second child needs this car seat, we plan to move our older one up to a Britax Frontier booster. I would definitely recommend this car seat.

    I have twins and, after doing extensive online research, ended up purchasing both the Britax Boulevard and the Britax Marathon Convertible Car Seat Cowmooflage. I feel like they are both exceptionally safe seats - since we've not had an accident, I can't comment on their performance, but can offer my thoughts on the pros and cons.

    1) Easy Installation. The Boulevard is extremely easy to install, especially if you use the latches. There are a ton of resources for ensuring that you have installed the seat correctly - I would encourage every parent to watch an online video, or take the seat by the police or fire station for inspection, just to be sure!
    2) Very stable. Once properly installed, the seat doesn't move. This was a pleasant difference from our Graco Infant SafeSeat Step 1 - Gianni, which seemed to jostle side to side a little no matter how tight we pulled the straps.
    3) Very comfortable for the kids. The material for the Onyx is soft, and there is a lot of cushioning around the head, waist, and the buckle connector.

    Some slight downside considerations:
    1) The seat is very large. If you are intending to use it rear-facing, you may have to move the driver/passenger seat W-A-Y forward, which can be a real drag. The seat does not cause the same issue once it is front facing. The Marathon doesn't take up quite as much room when rear-facing, and might be a better choice if you have a smaller vehicle.
    2) The strap adjuster button is not as user-friendly as the Marathon. I find it a bit difficult, actually, to maneuver under the seat cover to raise the latch and adjust the belt length with a child in the seat.
    3) The extended cushioning around the child's hips makes putting the child into the seat a little more difficult - the pillow kind of slips around and I find I have to slightly rearrange it almost every time I put the child into the seat.

    None of the downsides are really big negatives - just inconveniences to be aware of. If I had to do it again, I would probably still purchase one each of the Marathon and the Boulevard. I think the real difference will be apparent once the kids are older toddlers and testing the height/weight limits of the two seats.

    I purchased two of these seats for my twins. The seat is fantastic for use with infants, but when my twins hit 16 months of age, they figured out that they could easily reach the release button for the restraint harness, and basically get out of the seat by holding the button and leaning forward which opened the belts. It was heart stopping to see that they were not safe when I reached my destination, something that happened several times. I had to purchase another brand of seat to keep them safe and secure. It was a very expensive seat given this safety issue and I do not recommend it for use when a baby rides forward facing.

    Customer Buzz
    I'm sorry, this might be a great seat for toddlers, but it just isn't a good fit for newborns. My 6 lb baby did fit in it but she certainly wasn't comfortable. The straps are way too wide, too rough on her skin, and too far apart. We ended up having to purchase one of those infant car seats, which is not only better suited for our baby but also much more convenient for us parents. I'm sure we'll still use the Britax, just not now.

    Customer Buzz
    After hours of online research, we decided to go with the Britax Boulevard once my daughter outgrew her Graco Snugride (which we also liked). This seat is exceptionally large, so I do not see it fitting in a sports car. I was impressed with the true side impact protection wings, which is what eventually persuaded me to buy this, especially for when we move her from the middle position when another baby comes along. She does have to lean forward to look out the side windows, but has a great view out of the back. They also make a comfy pillow when sleeping. The fabric is very soft and I like the neutral colors. The headrest/strap height adjustment is very easy. I love the tether, it is the only brand to offer a rear-facing tether, you just have to spend a little extra time figuring it out. (I took it to a local specialist in installing car seats.) All of these things make it probably the safest on the market. It is rear-facing to 35 pounds, and forward-facing to 65, so we should get a lot of mileage out of it!

    Complaints: The buckle leans towards the back of the seat and you do have to fish it out from under them each time they get in. I find the harness adjuster strap quite difficult to tighten. You cannot tighten it in one smooth motion as you can with the snugride. You have to jerk it out in several repeated motions. Besides this I am very happy with it. We bought it on sale and with a $200 gift card, otherwise I would have been hard-pressed to spend this much on it.

    Customer Buzz
    After reading all the reviews on this seat - i almost didn't buy it. We bought the boulevard in particular because it has the side impact safety and she leans her head up against the wings to sleep - much better than most car seats where their head flops forward. . . that just can't be comfortable.

    The strap to click into is a bit short and a bit of a pain and that is why i rated 4 not 5 stars. . . My son rides in a Recaro and that would get 5 stars from me as it is easier to get him in and out of (and has been since we got it). I would have bought another Recaro for her but they don't have the pretty designs and this one is rated as well as the Recaro and has the pretty girlie designs. . .

    Great seat and very pretty - my daughter seems comfortable - but really doesn't like to be strapped into anything so she does whine when we initially strap her in. she is fine shortly thereafter and i have never seen any marks from the straps. we have been using the seat for 5 months now.

    You really can't buy a better seat than Recaro or Britax.

    Customer Buzz
    When my husband and I purchased a smaller vehicle, part of the deal was that I would be able to buy the best car seat on the market for our son. After much research, the Britax Boulevard always was the top recommendation. However, the crotch belt strap is extremely short and is NOT adjustable. Had I known this before, I would not have purchased this seat. There are several other seats by Britax with the adjustable strap (I believe the marathon has one, except it only holds up to 40 lbs in comparison to the Boulevard which holds 65). I can't imagine how my son will fit in this seat when he weighs more (He only weighs 20 lbs now and it's tight!)

    Pros:
    Safest on the market-- has side impact protection
    Fairly easy to install


    Cons:
    SHORT CROTCH STRAP!
    Bigger car seat
    Instruction manual not the most user friendly I've ever read

    Customer Buzz
    I purchased this seat about a month ago, and I'm very pleased with it. You can really see the quality in the structure and the way it was designed. We use this seat foward facing, which is very easy to install and fits real tight against the back seat. Some people complain that the seat is too big, but I have 98 Altima and it fits just fine. When it comes to saftey you shouldn't skimp. We tried to install the seat rear facing, but we didn't feel comfortable with that position...there was too much play from side to side. No matter how much we tried, we just couldn't get a tight secure fit with the rear facing position. My son loves the seat too...it real comfy!

    Customer Buzz
    it is a bit difficult to get the baby into the carseat in the rear facing position. the wings on the sides make it very safe and comfortable for the baby. but also hard to get him in and out. not too much of a problem. but something to consider. i may have been happier with the britax seat that is rated up to 65 lbs without the wings.

    Customer Buzz
    I did a TON of research when looking into getting our first car seat. I first purchased a Britax Boulevard (Park Avenue) for my son back in 2006. We have loved it ever since and with the birth of our daughter in July of this year, we also purchased her a Britax Boulevard (Shannon).

    Yes, the buckle in the crotch can be annoying since it doesn't stay lifted when placing your child in the seat, but I love the fact that it is located so low on the child. This allows the seat belt to be crossing the child's upper legs instead of their belly - and in a crash, that is very important. All the belts are easy to adjust. The car seat itself is easy to install in the car (we first had a surbaru forester and now have a honda odyssey). The side impact protection (wings) are great and our child has never had a problem seeing past them. In fact, they are quite handy when the child falls asleep (nice resting spot for the head).

    Last week we were hit by an oncoming car. It was so scary and frightening - especially since I had my 2 year old and 8 week old in the car with me. I was so glad I had purchased our Britax Boulevards. The car was not drivable after the crash and I couldn't even open my driver door. I got whiplash, but the kids seem to be ok. We're going to the chiropractor again this week to make sure they are still doing ok.

    These car seats are truly the best and last a very long time. I highly recommend them.

    We shopped very carefully for a carseat for our son, and once he outgrew the infant seat (Graco SnugRide), we looked to Baby 411's gear guide to see what rated best. This carseat was the winner.

    My son is a tad small for his age, but he rides like the king of the backseat when he's in his carseat. This carseat is washable, I can say that for sure! Our son is 3 and eats snacks frequently in it, and we just wipe it down with a baby wipe. Bigger spills can be taken care of by removing the straps and cover, which is easy to do. It's well-padded, cushy, and I feel that the "wings" around the head-area keep my kiddo safer.

    The only problem we've had is, it's BIG. We drive a BMW 325i and now that his legs are getting longer, my son is getting a little cramped. With my husband's seat pushed back (when husband drives) it's a tight fit.

    Shop around for the best deals on this seat: don't wait until you MUST have one, and you'll have time to sort through the different prices.

    Britax carseats are super easy to install, and are very comfortable for the baby. I definitely recommend them, and they are worth the money.

    My family is a Britax family, we have 3 different seats. I would say this is one of the best seats of the Britax family. It gives us plenty of room for my one year old now and can easily see her in this for the many years to come. My three year old has sat in it and still has plenty of room.

    She is still currently rear facing, just turned 1 and is only 22 pounds. Will probably keep her rear facing for a little longer, she still doesn't mind getting in it. She often falls asleep as soon as we get down the road.

    The fabric is very cute and soft.

    Customer Buzz
    This carseat is great. I've used it for two boys so far and it's held up fantastic. It's comfy, easy to use, easy to clean and best of all, Safe! I love the length of rear facing.

    Customer Buzz
    It is a great car seat.
    It was expensive (compared to other brands) but worth it!
    It is defiantly very safe from all the safety features and well built.
    I would recommend this to anyone!
    The only slight problem I have with it is my son is bigger for his age and the buckle part is a little hard to clasp and not pinch his leg.

    the Britax Marathon is working perfectly for our 1 year old. We've only had it for a month but it seems to be well made. I think my favorite feature is the no-tangle straps, which make strapping in a wiggly baby much faster.

    As a new 59 year old Grandma, I was able to buy this for my car, install it (and I have arthritis) without difficulty and it functions.

    Customer Buzz
    Very happy with this carseat. It is easy to install, we still have it rear-facing for our 11-month old son. It is solidly built, I feel safe with him in it. Another important thing: Comfort. Most seats, it seems, have just a thin layer of padding atop the hard molding of the seat. This seat, however, is nice and plush.
    When we had this seat checked by our local carseat technician at the firestation he said not to use the tether system until we turn the seat around, the Britax website says you can use the tether rear-facing but we see no point, plus there are no anchors in that position in my car.
    One negative is the first couple of weeks , we had our son in the seat with the straps in the lowest position and to tighten him in, while pulling on the front tightener, the metal mechanism under the seat was catching on the molding thus preventing us from tightening as much as needed. But the fireman said to loosen the straps and re-tighten. When he gets a little bigger and graduates to the next level strap height, that will not be an issue. Even now after about a month of use, it is not an issue.
    Other than that, our son is very happy in his new 'big boy seat'. I would purchase this seat again if I needed to.

    Customer Buzz
    Easy to install and use. High quality and material. Rated high in saftey. Completely worth the price.

    Customer Buzz
    Looks great. My chubby 25 pound 5 month old fits well.
    I figured out to get him unbuckled I push on the button and pull on the leg straps (not the shoulder straps). I wish the velcro on the sides to hold the straps open was a little bigger or better placed. It takes up a lot of space in our Toyota Corolla but a not too tall passenger can still sit in the front.

    I have a 8 month old who has outgorn her carrier. She seems to really like her new Britax car seat...she is very comfortable! We bought two for ourselves and one for her grandparents!

    Customer Buzz
    Decent seat, but I should have bought the Marathon! My kid is tall, so I had to turn him forward at 18 mos because his head was over the shell. (AAP guidelines say keep your kid rear-facing till 2 years - do some research and you will be saddened at what the "authorities" suggest by turning your kid at 1yr/20lbs) Now, he's almost 2 and the shoulder straps are at the highest setting. I anticipate he will outgrow the seat in the next 6 months or less. Had I spent the extra $50 on the Marathon it would have lasted him two more years. The straps are not padded and get twisted quite easily. If your kid is a peanut, then this might work out for you, but if you have an average to large kid GET THE MARATHON!!!

    My little guy was getting too long for his infant carrier and would fuss every time I put him in it. Now he has a smile on his face when he gets in his Britax Roundabout seat (the musical mirror helps too)! I drive a sedan (Nissan Maxima) and was frustrated that I couldn't use his infant carrier with the LATCH system in my car because it was too big and had to go in the middle of the back seat. We also had to use pool noodles to get the base level and I was constantly having to readjust. I didn't have any of these problems with the Britax Roundabout. It fits great in my car and is easy to install using the LATCH system. Seems very comfy for my little guy and I love the velcro tabs to keep the straps in place when getting him in and out of the seat. This car seat is definitely worth the investment.

    It sits higher than most car seats so it's easier to strap the kids in. I have three car seats in the back seat of my car and it fits nicely. The seat also has velcro that attaches to the straps so when you unbuckle the seat and take your child out the straps stay open. This is great for when you are putting a sleeping baby in the car and don't have an extra hand to open the straps. When my youngest grows out of the infant seat, I'll definitely get another one!

    I've only had this car seat for a couple of weeks, but I like the long easy to move and buckle straps. The car seat material is nice. My child seems comfortable in it and doesn't have his head fall too far to the side when he falls asleep in it. It was easy to install (although I haven't used the additional tethers). I guess what would have been better is if it was rated for a larger child so it would last us longer but you get what you pay for and I don't think a booster seat will cost that much more later.

    We bought this seat in part based on its positive reviews. However, we were disappointed to find that it was impossible to make the seat work in the rear facing position in our car (2008 Jeep Liberty). Not difficult mind you - impossible. Particularly frustrating was that the installation videos at the Britax web site show a seat with features ours does not have (the straps in the video use some sort of rail system to increase leverage - totally absent out our version). We did get the seat to work in the forward facing position, however it is a great mystery how one would ever actually use the recline function once the seat is installed. A seat with room to recline would be too loose. So after much aggravation we now have a forward facing seat with a useless recline feature. For a while we were wondering if we had a knockoff of some kind. Very disappointing.

    Cute product. Comfortable for baby. Can be used from 5 lbs. to 40 lbs. I also own a Britax Marathon which can be used from 5 lbs. up to 65 lbs. At times I do question whether or not I should have just bought 2 Marathons since they can be used for children all the way up to 65 lbs. HOWEVER, the Roundabout is definitely good for those who have small cars! And by the time my child is 40 lbs I will probably be ready for a safety seat change anyway with all the nugget mess it acquires!

    We love the Britax Roundabout so much we bought two of them. Grandma bought another model and now wishes she bought a Roundabout as well. We highly recommend a Britax Roundabout. It is safe, easy to use, and stylish.

    I was unsure whether to get a seat that went up to 65 pounds when my son turned one, but my friends advised me to get this Roundabout. Then when he grows out of it he can just get a booster seat which is much easier to move to other cars when he is not riding with me. I love it and have had it 1 month now. It is very spacious and looks really nice. It has been very easy to deal with also.
    I own a 4 door Camry and it is somewhat hard to fit my son into the seat since the ceiling is so low, but I don't mind that. I love the onyx design too.

    Fantastic car seat. We've had this since my son was 6 months old, turning it around to face front after he turned 1. Still looks like new at 2 1/2, and fits my small SUV easily in any of the 3 available back-seat positions. My son is protected and comfortable and I find it easy to get him in and out of. Considered Britax's middle-of-the-road model as far as safety and price, I opted for it over the larger models for fit and daily usability.
