20 Fun Informational Facts About Pram Double

Buying a Convertible Single to Double Stroller

There aren't many things more exciting than finding out that you're expecting your second child. The preparation for your family's new baby can be a challenge.

One of them is choosing the most suitable double pram to meet your requirements. This article will review the options available and provide some suggestions on how you can select the right one for your growing family.

Convertible double prams

A convertible single-to-double stroller is an excellent choice if you want a pram that can grow with your family. These innovative frames, such as the Cybex Aton 4 Twin, can be extended in width to accommodate a second seat. They typically come with the option of adding an additional shopping basket, or two carrycots/car seat pram seats (with upper adapters and lower adapters readily available) to allow you to begin your family with just one buggy, and later upgrade to twins without the need to buy a new one and again. Double prams provide more seating and configuration options for both children when compared to other styles. They also have a more evenly distributed weight which makes them easier to move around. Pros: Simple to use, compact and versatile. Cons: There is less space and storage space for both children and parents compared to other designs.

Tandem (in-line) double prams

As the name implies, tandem prams come with two bassinets or seats for prams that are aligned one over the other. Tandem prams are typically smaller than side-by-side double prams, and are more maneuverable through doorways and on public transport. However they don't offer enough storage space, and are more difficult to access when both seats are in use if your toddler is sitting in the front seat.

Some first-time parents opt for tandem strollers to protect their investment in the event that they have children with the same age. Our DUO2 pram is a well-known model. It's initially an individual buggy however, it can be transformed to a twin lightweight stroller by adding a second seat. It is also able to be converted to a single stroller when your child is older and outgrows the buggy.

Tandem prams are available in a variety of designs. For example, an infant can be placed in a bassinet at the top of the pram, while an older child is seated on the seat below. Most can also be transformed into a travel system by adding an automobile capsule that is placed on the top of the seat.

For the ultimate flexibility, a side-byside double pram lets both children take the ride in tandem and interact as they go. This can help to avoid the two of them from waking up or fighting over toys, while the fact they're seated close to one another makes it possible to get through doors and other obstacles with ease.

A side-by-side is the best option for grandparents who want to get involved in the fun. They can carry 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 who want to help with babysitting.

Single prams

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

Some first-time parents decide to future-proof their pram shops near me by purchasing a double pram option, like 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 double pram after baby 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 pushchairs Prams may be a little wider than side-by-side double prams, however, they are still much easier to manoeuvre on busy pedestrian paths and inside shops. However, they are more difficult to use when running and will require more effort to push when you're climbing or descending hills.

They are larger than tandem or in-line double strollers However, they are an excellent choice when your children are in the same age range. Children can see each the other and interact from their seats. They are more difficult to maneuver than tandem strollers and might not pass through standard doors as easily.

Non-convertible side-by-side prams cannot be used in single mode. You'll need to purchase a new pram pushchair or a stroller for your children's younger ones. However, they offer the benefit of being less expensive and last longer than convertible double prams, because they aren't built to be used in single and double modes. The main downside is that your older child will soon outgrow the side-byside seat and will have to be moved to a toddler seat which could be costly.
