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. The preparation for your family's new addition can be challenging.

The choice of the best double pram pushchair stroller is among them. This article will review the options available and offer some guidelines on how to select the right one for your growing family.

Convertible double prams

If you're looking for a pram that can grow with your family, a convertible single to double pram is an excellent alternative. These clever frames, such as the Cybex Aton 4 Twin, can be expanded in width to accommodate a second seat and usually come with the option of adding an additional shopping basket or two car seats or carrycots (with upper adapters and lower adapters available) to allow you to begin your family with just one buggy and later upgrade to twins without the need to purchase a new pram once more. They typically offer more configuration and seating options for both children than other styles of double prams too and have better weight distribution, which means they're often easier to manoeuvre. Pros: Simple to use small and compact. Cons: There is less space and storage for both children compared to other designs.

Tandem (in-line) double prams

The name suggests that tandem prams come with two bassinets or seats which are positioned one over the other. Tandem prams are generally narrower than double prams that are side-by-side. They are also easier to maneuver through doors and on public transport. They do not have as much storage and can be difficult to reach when both seats are in use especially when your child is in the front seat.

Some parents who are new to parenting opt for a tandem stroller to ensure the future of their investment, particularly in the case of children that are similar in age. Our DUO2 pram is a popular example. It starts out as an individual buggy, but can be upgraded to a twin stroller by adding an additional seat. It can also be converted back to a single pram when your older child is no longer able to use it.

Tandem prams come in a variety of configurations and include the option for an infant to lie in a bassinet for the pram on top while an older child sits in the seat below. Most tandem prams can be made an a travel system by putting car capsules to the top seat.

A side-by-side double folding stroller allows both children to ride together and talk as they go. This can prevent them waking each other up or fighting over toys, while the fact that they're sitting close to one another allows you to easily go through doors and other obstacles with ease.

A side-byside is a great option for grandparents looking to participate in the fun. They can push both children around and help with shopping, running errands, or even attending events. They're usually cheaper than tandem prams, making them a great choice for grandparents to assist with babysitting.

Single prams

A single pram is only capable of accommodating one seat or a bassinet/carry-cot. It is suitable for infants to about 4 years old. age. Four years old. Many single prams allow toddler boards (depending on which type of toddler board you choose) to be attached at the back so that a child can stand, or sit, while you push the stroller.

Some parents who are first-time parents opt to secure their pram for the future by purchasing a double pram option, such as our DUO2. This means you'll use the pram in a single mode while you have a single child and then convert it into a tandem double pram when baby number two arrives. This will avoid the hassle and expense of purchasing a separate double stroller.

Tandem or in-line double prams are wider than side by side double prams, yet they are easier to maneuver on crowded footpaths and in shops. However, they can be more difficult to use when jogging and will require greater 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 they are a good choice when you are planning to have 2 children close in age. The children will be able to see and double stroller interact with each other 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 must purchase a different pram or stroller for your younger child. They are cheaper and last longer than convertible double strollers, because they were not intended to be used in single and double mode. The main drawback is that your child will quickly outgrow the side-by-side seat and will need to be moved to a toddler's seat which can be expensive.
