You need to look in your car's manual to find the total weight limit and look in your car seat's owner manual to find the weight of the car seat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/latch-weight-limit#post-2367223 Mon, 23 Nov 2015 15:18:24 +0000 bushelandapeck 2367223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My understanding is 40lbs for the LATCH. That's what we were told at a carseat installation. We recently started using the seatbelt with our 3 yo in his Britax. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/latch-weight-limit#post-2367205 Mon, 23 Nov 2015 15:07:29 +0000 kiddosc 2367205@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SeptMomma12: The weight of the seat and child should not exceed 65lbs. You need to look in your owner's manual to find out what the seat weighs.</p> <p>ETA: That's just for the lower anchors. You should continue using the top tether with a seatbelt install. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/latch-weight-limit#post-2367104 Mon, 23 Nov 2015 14:07:59 +0000 SeptMomma12 2367104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm having a hard time finding clear information on this. We have a Britax Marathon and DS is 42 lbs. What's the rule with using LATCH? </p>
