Guide To Pram Double: The Intermediate Guide For Pram Double

Buying a Convertible Single to Double Stroller

The news that you're expecting your second child is one of the most exciting things you can hear. But getting your family ready for this new addition comes with its own set of difficulties.

One of them is deciding on the right double pram for your needs. This article will discuss the options available and offer some suggestions on how to select the ideal pram for you and your growing family.

Convertible double prams pushchairs

A convertible single to double stroller is a great option if you want a pram Double that can grow with your family. These clever frames like the Cybex Aton 4 Twin expand the width to accommodate a second seat. They also offer the option of incorporating a shopping basket, or two carrycots/carseats (with upper and lower adapters). This allows you to begin your family with just a single buggy and then expand when you have twins. These double prams offer more seating and configuration options for both children when compared to other models. They also offer more evenly distributed weight making them more maneuverable. They are compact, easy to use and versatile. Cons: There is less space and storage space for both children compared to other designs.

Tandem (in-line) double prams

The name suggests that tandem prams have two bassinets or pushchairs car seats that are positioned one in front of the other. Tandem prams tend to be smaller than double prams that are side-by-side. They are also easier to maneuver through doors and public transport. However they don't offer the same amount of storage space and may be more difficult to access when both seats are in use if your toddler is sitting in the front seat.

Some parents who are first-time parents opt for a tandem pram to future-proof their investment, particularly when they're planning to have more children close in age. Our DUO2 pram is a popular model. It's designed as an individual buggy, but can be upgraded into a twin stroller by adding an additional seat. It is also possible to convert it back to a single stroller once your older child outgrows the buggy.

Tandem prams can be found in a variety of designs. For example, an infant can be placed in a bassinet at the top of the pram, while an older child sits on the seat below. They can also be converted into a travel system by adding an automobile capsule that is placed on the top seat.

A double stroller that is side-by-side allows the children to ride together and converse while they ride. This will prevent them from waking eachother up.

A side-byside is a great option for grandparents looking to get involved in the activities. They can be used to push both children around and help with shopping, running errands or even attending events. They are often cheaper than tandem prams, which makes them an excellent choice for grandparents to help with babysitting.

Single prams travel system

A single pram only allows one seat or a bassinet/carry cot - it is generally suitable from newborn through to approx. 4 years old. A lot of single prams allow a toddler board (depending on the type of toddler board you pick) to be tacked to the back so that another child can stand, or sit while you push the stroller.

Some first-time parents decide to future-proof the pram they purchase by purchasing double options like our DUO2. You can use it in a single mode until you have your second child and then switch it into a tandem double pram when your second baby arrives. This will save you the cost and burden of having to purchase a separate double pram.

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

They are a bit larger than tandem or in-line double prams, but they are a great option for children who are in the same age range. The children are able to see each one another and interact 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 cannot be used in single mode. You will need to purchase another pram or stroller for your smaller child. They are cheaper and last longer than convertible double strollers because they weren't designed to be used both in double and single mode. The biggest drawback is that your child will eventually outgrow the side-by-side seat and will need to be moved to a toddler seat, which can be costly.
