Britax roundabout versus marathan?

[cherrysodalover]

ANyone know if there is any real difference? The roundabout is much cheaper so I guess it does not go up to 65 pounds like the marathon does.

Have a look on the american britax site. I just had a quick look and it looks like there are 2 types of each seat. One of each goes up 2 40lb rear 70lb forward facing and one of each has a lower weight limit. Are you in America? As these seats would not be leagal to use in uk.

Thanks myboots.Yes in the US but thought the seats were universal so good to know they are not.

Each country has different laws, in general us seats are not legal in uk but are in nz, Eu seat are only legal in europe and also nz.
