Shopping for New Car Seat for My 14 Month Old

I am looking for a new car seat for my 14 month old daughter. She is just over 20 lbs and 30 inches tall. I have been doing some research and from what I have read the Britax Marathon is highly recommended. It is also one of the more expensive models. Since I am a SAHM, we are on a pretty tight budget. Before we spend the money, I just wanted to get some opinions from other moms. Can you recommend a car seat? Also, I have read that they are now recommending kids stay rear-facing as long as possible. What are your thoughts about this...
