Convertible double prams

A convertible single-to-double stroller is a great choice if you want a pram to grow with your family. These clever frames, such as the Cybex Aton 4 pushchair twin, can be extended in width to accommodate a second seat and usually come with the option of adding an additional shopping basket, or two car seats/car carrycots (with upper adapters and lower adapters readily available) so that you can start your family with one buggy and then upgrade to twins without needing to purchase a new one again. They usually have more configurations and seating options for children and adults than other models of double prams and offer better weight distribution, so they're often easier to manoeuvre. Pros: Compact, simple to use and versatile. Cons: Less space and storage for both children and parents in comparison to other designs.

Tandem (in-line) double prams

As the name implies the term "twin pram" refers to two bassinets or seats that face each other. Tandem prams are generally more compact than double prams which are side-by-side. They are also more maneuverable through doors and on public transport. However they don't have as much storage space and may be more difficult to access when both seats are used if your toddler is sitting in the front seat.

Some first-time parents opt for a tandem stroller in order to safeguard their investment in case they have more children with the same age. Our DUO2 pram is a popular example. It's initially a single stroller, but can be upgraded to a twin stroller by adding the second seat. It is also possible to convert it back to a single stroller if your older child outgrows the buggy.

Tandem prams can be found in many configurations. For instance the infant can be put in a bassinet at the top of the pram while an older child is seated on the seat below. Most tandem prams can be made a travel system by adding an automobile capsule to the top seat.

A double stroller that is side-by-side allows both children to share a ride and converse while they ride. This will stop the two from fighting or wake each other up.

A side-by-side can be the perfect choice for grandparents looking to join in the fun - they can carry both children around, and help with shopping, running errands or attending events. They're usually cheaper than tandem prams, which makes them an excellent choice for grandparents who want to help with babysitting.

Single prams

A single pushchair pram can only allow one seat or a bassinet/carry cot. It is usually suitable from birth through to approx. four years old. A lot of single prams allow for a toddler board to be attached to the back of the stroller, so that another child can stand or sit (depending on the type of toddler board) while you push the stroller forward.

Some first-time parents decide to future-proof their pram sets by purchasing a double Pram double option, like our DUO2. It can be used in a single mode until you have a second child and then change it to a tandem inline double pram stores near me when your second baby is born. This will save you the hassle and expense of purchasing an additional double stroller.

Tandem or in-line double prams are larger than side by side double prams, yet they are more maneuverable on busy pedestrian paths and in shops. However, they can be more difficult to use during running and will require more effort to push when you're climbing or descending hills.

Side by side prams are much wider than in-line or tandem double prams but are a good choice if you plan to have two children of similar age. They can see and interact with each other from their seats. However, they are less mobile and might not be able to fit through doors as easily as a tandem stroller.

Non-convertible side-by-side prams are not suitable for use in single mode. You will have to buy a new pram or stroller for your youngest child. They are cheaper and last longer than double strollers that convert, because they were not intended to be used in double and single modes. The main downside is that your child will soon outgrow the side-by-side seat and will need to be transferred to a toddler's seat, which can be costly.
