Choosing a car seat for your newborn child is an extremely important task. Car seats vary in price and quality. Obviously nobody wants to waste money, but you need to make sure you still get a quality seat. Searching for a car seat can take a large amount of time and effort, especially if you want to make sure you're getting your money's worth.
In the event that you ever end up in a crash, you'll want to make sure that you child is a safe as possible. Now... what makes a good car seat?
For one, a good child car seat should have enhanced safety features for both rear and front collisions. These types of collisions are the most common, by far. Bucket style seats with a low center of gravity are great since they reduce the rolling motion of the car seat and reduce the degree to which the child is swung forwards or backwards.
You still want to make sure, with any car seat, that the seat is built and tested well to handle side collisions. Some of these features include deep side and head wings and a barrier around the sides of the head and torso (to help shield the child from flying objects in a crash).
Finally, it's always nice to get a car seat that is comfortable for your child. If you expect to be spending any length of time in your car with your child, you should look for seats with soft lining.
Over the past year, I've spent a fair amount of time looking for a car seat for my second child. In the end, I decided on the Britax Marathon 70. This seat has a great set of designs and, most importantly, is extremely safe and comfortable for my child. Also, the Britax seats are a well known quality brand and are worth every penny spent!

Britax Marathon 70
If you are interested in the Britax Marathon 70, or just a great car seat, you're in the right place!
There are many location online where you can read about and purchase many different makes and models of car seats. However, it can take a huge amount of time and effort and time to look through them all.
As a result of recently having to do my own search for a new car seat, I found the Britax Marathon 70 (the best value I could find for the money) for a great price at Amazon.com.
This seat has positive reviews almost everywhere you look and I've rarely seen a complaint.
The Britax Marathon 70 can be used either front or read facing and can accommodate children between 5 and 70 pounds. This car seat is designed to be comfortable for your baby/child and, at the same time, to be extremely safe. The low center of gravity for this car seat counteracts the forward rotation that most seats exhibit during a crash. The result of this, in the event of a crash, your child is more likely to be cupped in the seat and less likely to be jolted forward nearly as much.
This car seat comes in a variety of styles; enough to match pretty well anyone's taste. The styles include Onyx (shown above), Cowmooflage, Crimson, Allison, Blueprint, and Waverly. A few of the styles are shown below.
The Cowmooflage design is a fun one that might appeal to those looking for a slightly unique car seat.
The Blueprint style is a great option for any child, and hides stains very well.
If you're looking for the perfect car seat for a little girl, the Allison design is great. Not only is this an extremely safe model of car seat, but this design is very cute as well.
