Guide To Pram Double: The Intermediate Guide In Pram Double

Buying a Convertible Single to Double Stroller

The news that you're expecting your second child is among the most exciting things to hear. The preparation for your family's new baby can be difficult.

One of these is selecting the best double pram for your requirements. This article will discuss the options available and offer some guidelines on how you can select the best pram for your growing family.

Convertible double pushchair prams

A convertible single to double stroller is an excellent choice if you want a pram to grow with your family. These clever frames, such as the Cybex Aton 4 Twin, expand widthways to accommodate a second child and will typically have the option of an additional shopping basket, or two car seats/car carrycots (with upper adapters and lower ones available) to allow you to begin your family with just one buggy and then upgrade to twins without having to purchase a new pram again. Double prams have more seating and configuration options for both children as compared to other styles. They also have a more evenly distributed weight making them more maneuverable. Pros: Compact, simple to use and adaptable. Cons: Less storage and less space for both children compared to other designs.

Tandem (in-line) double prams

As the name implies the term "twin pram" refers to two seats or bassinets facing each other. Tandem sale prams tend to be narrower than double prams that are side-by-side. They can also be more maneuverable through doorways and in public transport. However, they don't have as much storage space and may be more difficult to access when both seats are being used when your child is in the front seat.

Some first-time parents choose a tandem pram to secure their investment, especially when they're planning to have more children close in age. A popular model is our DUO2 pram that is initially designed as a single buggy and can be upgraded to a twin stroller with the addition of a second seat. It is also possible to convert it to a single stroller once your older child outgrows the buggy.

Tandem prams can be found in a variety of configurations. For instance the infant can be placed in a bassinet on the top of the pram double, while an older child is seated on the seat below. Most can also be converted into a travel strollers system by adding a car capsule placed in the top of the seat.

A double stroller that is side-by-side allows both children to ride together and talk as they go. This will help avoid getting up or fighting over toys, while the fact that they're sitting near to one another allows you to easily go through doors and other obstacles easily.

A side-byside is also the ideal choice for grandparents who want to join in the fun. They can push both kids around and help out with shopping, running pushchair errands and attending events. They are often cheaper than tandem prams, making them a great choice for grandparents to help with babysitting.

Single prams

A single pram is only able to allow for 1 seat or bassinet/carry-cot. It is generally suitable from newborn up to around. 4 years of age. A majority of single prams allow a toddler board to be attached to the back of the stroller, so that a second child can stand or sit (depending on the kind of toddler board) while you push the stroller along.

Some first-time parents decide to future-proof the pram they purchase by purchasing double options like our DUO2. This means that you can use the pram in a single mode when you have just one child, and then switch it into a tandem in-line double pram after baby number two arrives. This will avoid the hassle and cost of purchasing an additional double stroller.

Tandem or in-line double prams are a bit wider than side by side double prams but are still more maneuverable on busy pedestrian paths and in shops. They can be harder to use while jogging, and require more effort to push up or down hills.

Side by side prams are wider than in-line or tandem double prams but are a good choice for families with two children who are similar in age. They will be able to view and interact with each other from their seats. However, they are less maneuverable and may not fit through doors as easily as tandem strollers.

Non-convertible side-by-side prams cannot be used in single mode. You'll need to purchase a different pram or a stroller for your children who are younger. They have the advantage of being less expensive and last longer than convertible double prams, since they aren't designed to be used in single and double modes. 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 expensive.
