We use the Maxi Cosi Priori. I like that it fits well in the backseat of my car and the passenger doesn't need to be kissing the dashboard. The reclining feature is great when DD falls asleep.
we were all set to buy the britax but found the evenflo triumph to be just as good (ratings are the same) and half the price. we have two of them and love them!
DH has the Recaro . . . Como, I think. It's very nice, plush, but very bulky. I have the Britax Roundabout, it was a hand me down from my BF, but if I was buying, I probably would have gone with the Marathon. Also, I read somewhere that because of its larger ranges, the Marathon is said to be a better choice than the Roundabout for children who routinely measure above the 50th percentile in height or weight
My mom has the Graco My Ride 65, and that one is probably my favorite. Because of the tilt angle, it's the only one of the 3 the DD will fall asleep in.
We got the Britax Advocate CS (from Diapers.com) because of the side impact protection. After tons of research, we almost ordered a Britax from Sweden because of their safety standards and long rear-facing builds.
