Britax Boulevard or Marathon?

Anyone have any experience with either of these convertible seats?  We just started researching, kind of regret not just getting one of these in the first place.  I am having a hard time telling the difference besides it looking like the Boulevard has a bit more cushion (I think).  We have to buy one soon, so just trying to hear a few opinions or personal experiences before we make the final decision.

  • I have had the Boulevard from day one and absoultely love it.

  • Totally in the same boat, so I am watching this thread, also the Advocate looks good too!  So far the strap adjustment is the winning factor that the Marathon doesn't have - no biggy but nice when you have so many layers......so many seats.....agh!
  • we're getting the blvd for the exact same reason, more padding.

    We just bought the Advocate CS. I liked the adjustment that both the Blvd and Advocate has, but the side impact improvement is what sold me on the Advocate. Diapers.com is having a Britax sale right now. The sale price was 319.99 and we ended up getting the 369.99 seat for 287.99 after the first time buyers 10% coupon.

    That sucks!

  • We have the marathon and absolutely love it.  We already bought a second one for our second baby (it was half off on diapers.com).  Its very cushy and soft, and "wraps" around the baby.  But you cant go wrong with a Britax.
