Buying a Convertible Single to Double Stroller

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

One of them is choosing the most suitable double pram to meet your requirements. This article will go over the options available and offer some guidelines on how to choose the best pram for you and your growing family.

Convertible double prams

A convertible single-to-double stroller is an excellent choice when you're looking for a pram that can grow with your family. These clever frames, such as the Cybex Aton 4 Twin, can be expanded in width to accommodate a second child and usually come with the option for an additional shopping basket, or two car seats or carrycots (with upper adapters and lower adapters readily available) so that you can begin your family with just one buggy and then upgrade to twins without the need to buy a new one again. They usually have more configurations and seating options for both children than other styles of double prams and have better weight distribution, which means they're often easier to manoeuvre. Pros: Compact, easy to use, and versatile. Cons: Less storage space and less space for both children when compared to some other designs.

Tandem (in-line) double prams

As the name implies tandem prams have two bassinets or seats that face one another. Tandem prams are generally narrower than side-by-side double prams and can be easier to maneuver through doorways and on public transport. However, they don't have as much storage space and may be more difficult to access when both seats are being used in the case of a toddler who is in the front seat.

Some parents who are first-time parents opt for a tandem pram to secure their investment, especially when they're planning to have more children that are similar in age. A popular model is our DUO2 pram which starts life as a single buggy and can be converted to a twin stroller by the addition of an additional seat. It can also be converted 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 the infant can be put in a bassinet at the top of the pram, while an older child sits on the seat below. Most tandem prams can be made travel systems by adding car capsules to the top seat.

For maximum flexibility, a double side-by-side pram lets both kids take the ride in tandem and have fun while they travel. This will stop them from waking eachother up.

A side-by-side is also the perfect choice for grandparents who want to join in the fun. They can both push the kids around and help out with shopping, running errands, or Childs pram attending events. They are usually less expensive than tandem prams, making them an excellent choice for grandparents who want to help with babysitting.

Single prams

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

Some first-time parents decide to future-proof their pram by purchasing a double-pram option, such as our DUO2. This means that you can use the pram in a single mode while you have one child, and then switch it into a tandem in-line double pram when baby pram number two is born. This can save you the expense and hassle of having to purchase an additional double pram.

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

They are larger than tandem or in-line double prams However, they are a great option for children who are similar in age. They can view each the other and interact from their seats. They are less maneuverable than tandem strollers and may not fit through standard doors as easily.

Non-convertible side by sides cannot be used in single mode - you will need to purchase another pram or stroller for your youngest child. They offer the benefit of being less expensive and will last for longer than convertible double prams, as they are not built to be used in both single and double modes. The main drawback is that your older child will eventually outgrow the side-byside seats and will have to be transferred to a toddler seat, which can be costly.
