Buying a Convertible Single to Double Stroller

There aren't many things more exciting than hearing that you're expecting your second child. Making preparations for your family's new addition can be challenging.

The choice of the best double stroller is one of the most important things to consider. This article will go over the options available and offer some guidelines on how you can select the best pram for your growing family.

Convertible double prams

If you're looking for a baby stroller that can adapt to your family, a convertible single to double pram is a great alternative. These clever frames like the Cybex Aton 4 Twin expand widthways to accommodate a second seat. They also come with the option of incorporating a shopping basket, or two car seats/carseats (with upper and lower adapters). This enables you to begin your family with a single buggy and then upgrade when you have twins. They typically offer more configuration and seating options for children and adults than other models of double prams too and will offer better weight distribution, so they are generally easier to maneuver. Pros: compact travel pram, easy to use and versatile. Cons: Less storage space and less space for both children compared to some other designs.

Tandem (in-line) double prams

As the name implies the term "twin pram" refers to two seats or bassinets that face each other. Tandem prams are generally smaller than double prams that are side-by-side. They are also more maneuverable through doors and on public transport. They do not have the same amount of storage space and are difficult to reach when both seats are used, especially when your child is in the front seat.

Some parents who are first-time parents opt for a tandem stroller to ensure the future of their investment, particularly in the case of children that are similar in age. A popular example is our DUO2 pram which starts life as a single stroller and can be upgraded to a twin stroller by the addition of a second seat. It also converts back to an individual stroller when your older child is no longer able to use it.

Tandem prams come in a variety of designs with the option of infants to sleep in a bassinet for the pram on top while an older child is seated in the seat below. Many can be transformed into a travel system by incorporating the car capsule, which is positioned in the top of the seat.

A side-by-side double stroller allows both children to share a ride and talk as they go. This will help prevent them from getting up.

A side-by-side can be the ideal choice for grandparents who want to get in the fun. They can carry both children around, and help with shopping, running errands or attending events. They're usually cheaper than a tandem stroller, making them a great way to introduce grandkids to babysitting duties.

Single prams

A single pram can only allow for 1 seat or bassinet/carry cot. It is typically suitable from newborn until around. 4 years of age. Many single prams also allow a toddler board to be attached to the back of the stroller, so that another child can stand or sit (depending on the kind of toddler board) while you push the stroller newborn through.

Some parents who are first-time parents opt to future-proof the pram they purchase by buying a double option, such as our DUO2. This means you'll use the pram in single mode while you have a single child, and then switch it into a tandem in-line double pram stores near me when baby number two arrives. This will eliminate the hassle and cost 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 footpaths and in shops. They can be harder to use when jogging, and require more effort to push up or down hills.

They are a bit larger than tandem or in-line double strollers However, they are a great option for children who are close in age. Children can see each one another and interact from their seats. However, they are not as mobile and might not be able to fit through doors as easily as a tandem stroller.

Non-convertible side-by-side prams are not usable in single mode - you will have to buy a new pram or stroller for your younger child. They are less expensive and last longer than convertible double strollers, because they were not designed to be used both in double and single modes. The main drawback is that your child will soon outgrow the side-by-side seat and will need to be moved to a toddler seat which can be expensive.
