Guide To Pram Double: The Intermediate Guide Towards Pram Double

Buying a Convertible Single to Double Stroller

There are few things more exciting than finding out that you're expecting your second child. The preparation for your family's new addition can be challenging.

Selecting the best double pram is among them. This article will cover the options available, as well as some suggestions to help you select the right one for your growing family.

Convertible double prams

A convertible single-to-double stroller is an excellent choice when you're looking for a pram to expand with your family. These clever frames, like the Cybex Aton 4 Twin, can be extended in width to accommodate a second child and usually come with the option of an additional shopping basket or two car seats or carrycots (with upper adapters and lower adapters available) so that you can begin your family with just one buggy, and later upgrade to twins without having to buy a new one once more. These double prams offer more seating and configuration options for both children compared to other models. They also offer better weight distribution which makes them easier to maneuver. Pros: Simple to use compact and flexible. Cons: There is less space and storage for both children compared to other designs.

Tandem (in-line) double prams

The name suggests that tandem prams have two bassinets or seats for prams that are positioned one in front of the other. Tandem prams are generally narrower than side-by-side double prams and are easier to maneuver through doorways and on public transport. They don't have the same amount of storage space and are difficult to access when both seats are in use especially when your child is sitting in the front.

Some first-time parents opt for a tandem stroller to protect their investment in the event that they have more children with the same age. One of the most popular examples is our DUO2 pram which starts life as a single buggy and can be converted to a twin stroller by the addition of the second seat. It also converts back to one pram once your older child is no longer able to use it.

Tandem prams are available in a variety of configurations. For example, an infant can be placed in a bassinet at the top of the pram, while an older child is seated on the seat below. The majority of tandem prams are able to be converted into a travel system by adding pushchairs car seats capsules to the top seat.

For maximum flexibility, a side-byside double pram lets both children enjoy the ride together and have fun while they travel pram. This will help avoid them waking each other up or fighting over toys, and the fact that they're sitting near to one another makes it possible to get through doors and other obstacles easily.

A side-by-side is also an ideal option for grandparents who want to get in on the fun - they can push both kids around and assist with shopping, running errands and attending events. They are often cheaper than tandem prams, making them a great option for grandparents to assist with babysitting.

Single prams

A single pram is only capable of accommodating one seat or bassinet/carry cot. It is suitable for infants to approximately 4 years of age. 4 years of age. A majority of single prams allow a toddler's board to be connected to the back so that a second child can stand or sit (depending on the type of toddler board) while you push the stroller forward.

Some first-time parents decide to secure their Pram Double for the future purchase by purchasing a double option, such as our DUO2. You can use it in a single mode until you have a second child and then change it to a tandem inline double pram when your second baby arrives. This will avoid the hassle and expense of purchasing an additional double stroller.

In-line or tandem double prams may be a bit wider than side-by-side double prams however, they are still much easier to manoeuvre on busy sidewalks and inside shops. They can be difficult to use when jogging, and require more effort to push up and down hills.

Side by side prams are wider than in-line or tandem double prams. They are a good choice for families with 2 children close in age. The children will be able to view and interact with each other from their seats. However, they are not as maneuverable and could not pass through standard doorways as easily as a tandem stroller.

Non-convertible side by side prams are not usable in single mode - you will need to purchase another pram or stroller for your youngest child. They are cheaper and last longer than double strollers with convertibles since they were not intended to be used in single and double mode. The main downside is that your older child will eventually outgrow the side-byside seat and will need to be transferred to a toddler's seat which could be costly.
