User questions & answers

Question:	I'm debating between the marathon and boulevard ct models. wondering what people think of the "snug harness indicator" feature on the boulevard
Answer:	The Boulevard CT has slightly different height limits which could be important especially for rear-facing. The Marathon CT just has shorter height limits. The Boulevard CT has the handy Click and Safe feature which helps caregivers know the harness is tightened enough. The Boulevard CT also has more padding around the head area for side-impact protection.
Question:	Is there any way to know which model year I am buying on Amazon
Answer:	I've purchased 3 Britax car seats from Amazon and the date on them is the same month I ordered it. Its almost like they are made when you order.
Question:	Is this the 2016 model
Answer:	I have been trying to find out the same information. I do not know why amazon does not list it as a 2015 model, which it is. Other major retailers carry an XE 2016 model with an extended 5 year warranty. This version only has a 1 year warranty.
Question:	Which is better marathon or boulevard
Answer:	The Boulevard (just like the Advocate) has higher shoulder harness slots by 2 inches or something like that. Which means your child can use it longer than the Marathon.

Disney Baby Grow and Go 3-in-1 Convertible Car Seat

Kids grow so fast that it seems to happen overnight. (These jammies fit yesterday!) It’s a 3-in-1 convertible car seat that’s ready to take baby home from the hospital or bring a big kid to soccer practice – and it’s there for you every wonderful moment in between. Let’s face it, life as a mom can be hectic, but with the Grow and Go it’s easy for them to grow and for you to be on the go.

• Supports infants from five pounds to toddlers of 40 pounds (rear-facing car seat)
• Supports toddlers 22 to 65 pounds (forward-facing car seat)
• Supports children 40 to 100 pounds (belt-positioning booster)
• Three-position recline makes it easy to get a good fit in your car
• QuickFit Harness for easy adjustment of both harness and headrest in one simple step

Rear-Facing Protection for Babies

The Grow and Go can be used in the rear-facing position for newborns and growing toddlers, from 5 to 40 pounds.

In forward-facing mode, the Grow and Go keeps your child protected in a harness with side impact protection up to 65 pounds.

Belt-Positioning Booster

When your child is big enough, remove the harness to use the belt-positioning booster mode for kids up to 100 pounds.

Messes Happen

Kids sneak in snacks and you find them mushed into every crevice. The seat pad comes off without removing the harness, because let’s face it – you don’t have time for that.

Kids always want to take one for the road. That’s why we’ve included two convenient cup holders, just in case they want to take two.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you recline this seat while toddler is asleep for instance? Or does the recline work only when installing the seat
Answer:	Yes
Question:	Does this seat extend upwards to accommodate height growth
Answer:	I can only speak for the fabric on this car seat, but it is very soft and cushiony. It seems breathable.
Question:	Does this fit in chicco travel system
Answer:	Please contact Chicco USA customer service for assistance at 1-877-424-4226. We are available Monday - Friday 8am -5pm, Eastern time.
Question:	Is the only difference between the sport and the zip how easy it is to remove the cover? Anything else different
Answer:	There’s indeed small difference between Chicco Fit2 LE and Chicco Fit2 on their removable infant head and body support. Chicco Fit2 LE comes with reversible infant support that comes with cozy knit and cool mesh options. While Chicco Fit2 doesn’t come with this reversible infant support. So when it comes to comfort, Chicco Fit2 LE is more comfortable with this advanced cozy knit and cool mesh fabrics.

User questions & answers

Question:	I received my car seat and I do not see any steel and just all plastic. It does not look like the advertised picture of it being full steel
Answer:	I highly doubt it. Seems to only fit the advocate clicktight models. If you compare photos of the 70 vs clickthight, you see the main release button is different on the clicktight.
Question:	Will three fit in a2013 Hyundai Sonata
Answer:	The child MUST be 44in standing AND 40 Lbs to fit in this seat . We can not endorse a child using it who does not meet these requirements.
Question:	Are there cupholders with this model, or are there some that can be added
Answer:	the Lower anchors are attached so the seat stays in place. You can use the lower anchors with or without the back of the car seat attached to the bottom half of the car seat
Question:	Is this model appropriate for a 6 1/2 month old
Answer:	One with a back will add some side and head impact protection in the event of an accident. Allows proper position of seatbelt straps across the chest/lap when they are still little/transitioning into a booster. It also helps having a place to rest their head when they fall asleep on long car rides.
