This is our 8th Britax car seat, so we love the brand, just not this particular seat. Loosening and tightening the harness is more difficult than it should be, the lever to hold while loosening the straps is buried under layers of fabric and the strap to tighten them is against the seat of the car. Our baby gets car sick often and it is a nightmare to clean. The shoulder pads are not removable, so we cannot wash the smell out of them. I do not believe the straps or favorite around the rebound bar are removable either, if they are, we haven’t figured it out. The pieces that do come off don’t go back on as nicely, so we have an expensive car seat that looks and smells awful. The click tight function seems to be very temperamental compared to our other click tight car seats and I find myself having to manually unlock the bottom of the seat before pushing it down. The head rest adjust nicely, and it looks very cushy. If knew 9 months ago what I now, I would have kept our marathon opted for another brand.
