Car seat sale, please help me choose!

Kohls has stacking codes for 15% and 20% plus kohls cash today, so I want/ need to get new car seats. Currently we have a NextFit and a b safe, we only have seats in one car and no spare seat for the other car. It works 90% of the time, but I'd like to have a spare seat for at least one of the kids with out having to in install. We also ERF, I'm between the diono (I'm thinking a Pacifica and an Olympia) or two of the new Britax click tights (I don't know anything about them). I would then keep the NextFit as our extra seat because it is so easy to install and adjust for either kid.

Who's got insight? I'm thinking @hmp1?

    I'm seconding the Dionos. Quinn is so dang comfortable rear facing in this seat. We've been really happy with it and will be purchasing another for #2.

    I love the low profile and angle adjuster of the Diono makes erf to 4+ easy. But the new Britax (not the Marathon though I believe) have extended their height to make them erf friendly. I would consider it so you have two easy to install seats. My fav feature is the low profile and ability for 3 across of the Diono.

    Just to add in another vote for the Diono. I can now attest to the 3 across in my car currently (Diono, Diono, infant base), and I have a Santa Fe. Though we FF ours, we would have had some major space issues in my car if I had not learned about the slimness of Diono's here last year when we were on the market for new seats for Jack.
    Will has been using Jack's old Britax Marathon's until this last week when we did some musical car seats.
    H has a truck, so zero issues space there. And I'll eventually get a new car but we weren't quite ready for that now.
    I bought ours last January at Kohls online and got a great price. If you are thinking about 3 kids and are not upgrading to a mini van or SUV with 3rd row anytime soon, the Diono is it.

    It seems like this is just superfluous, but I love our Diono far and above our Britax. Now, we don't have the new click tight, so I can't attest to that, but the Radian has been awesome for us. If and wehn we have a second, I would get another Diono.
