Convertible Car seats...Need some help here...what do you have?

[stacyfrank71903]

So theres the ones with the 5 point harness, period....and then theres ones with the harness AND the bar that comes down overhead.....which do you prefer and why? Also which one do you have and why did you choose it?

Thanks for any advice!

We have a Britax Marathon. It's plush and comfy, easy to use, unique cover choices--LOVE IT! Oh, and did I mention that ds doesn't scream bloody murder in this seat?

Yep, avoid the bar at all costs. We have Britaxes, too, and they have been worth every dime. They're comfortable, they last, and they're easy to install correctly every time.
