Buying a Convertible Single to Double Stroller

The news that you are expecting your second child is among the most exciting things to hear. Preparing your family for the new addition can be challenging.

Selecting the best travel pushchair double pram is one of the most important things to consider. This article will review the options available and provide some suggestions on how to choose the right one for your growing family.

Convertible double prams

If you're looking for a pram that can grow with your family and your family, a convertible single double pram is an excellent alternative. These clever frames like the Cybex Aton 4 Twin expand in width to accommodate a second seat. They also come with the possibility of adding a grocery basket, or two carrycots/carseats (with upper and lower adapters). This allows you to start your family out with a single buggy and then upgrade when you have twins. Double prams provide more seating and configuration options for both children compared to other types of. They also have more evenly distributed weight making them more maneuverable. They are easy to use small and compact. Cons: Less storage space and less space for both children compared to some other designs.

Tandem (in-line) double prams

As the name suggests, tandem prams come with two bassinets or seats for prams that are positioned one over the other. Tandem prams are generally narrower than side-by-side double prams, and are easier to maneuver through doors and on public transport. However, they don't have enough storage space, and may be more difficult to access when both seats are being used when your child is in the front seat.

Some parents who are first-time parents opt for a tandem pram to secure their investment, particularly when they're planning to have more children close in age. A popular example is our DUO2 pram that is initially designed as a single stroller and can be upgraded to a twin stroller with the addition of a second seat. It is also able to be converted back to a single stroller when your child reaches the age of buggy.

Tandem prams come in many designs. For example the infant can be put in a bassinet at the top of the Pram Double while an older child is seated on the seat below. Many can be transformed into a pushchair travel system system by incorporating the car capsule, which is positioned in the top seat.

A side-by-side double stroller allows the children to ride together and converse as they go. This will help avoid the two of them from waking up or fighting over toys, and the fact they're seated close to one another means you can easily get through doors and other obstacles easily.

A side-byside is also an ideal option for grandparents who want to get in on the fun. They can both push the kids around, and help with shopping, running errands or attending events. They are usually less expensive than a tandem pram, making them a great way to introduce grandparents to babysitting duties.

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. Many single prams also allow a toddler's board to be attached to the back, so that another child can stand or sit (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 single mode while you have a single child and then convert it into a tandem in-line double pram once bub number two is born. This will save you the cost and hassle of having to purchase a separate double pram.

In-line or tandem double prams can be a little wider than side-byside double prams however, they are still much easier to manoeuvre on busy sidewalks and inside shops. However, they are more difficult to use when running and will require more effort to push when climbing or descending hills.

Side by side prams are much wider than in-line or tandem double prams. They are a good option for families with 2 children close in age. The children will be able to view and interact with one another from their seats. However, they are not as 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 will need to purchase a new pram or stroller for your younger children. They have the advantage of being a cheaper option and last longer than convertible double prams because they aren't built to be used in both single and double modes. The biggest drawback is that your child might soon outgrow a side-byside and need to be moved into a toddler's chair. This can be costly.
