Buying a Convertible Single to Double Stroller

The news that you're expecting your second child is among the most exciting things to hear. However the process of preparing your family for the arrival of this new baby has its own set of challenges.

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

Convertible double prams

A convertible single to double stroller is a great option when you're looking for a Pram double that can grow with your family. These clever frames like the Cybex Aton 4 Twin expand widthways to accommodate a second seat. They also have the possibility of adding a grocery basket, or two carrycots/carseats (with upper and lower adapters). This enables you to start your family out with a single buggy and then upgrade once you have twins. These double prams offer more seating and configuration options for both children as compared to other models. They also have a better weight distribution which makes them more maneuverable. They are compact stroller, easy to use, and versatile. Cons: It takes up less space and storage space for both children as compared to other designs.

Tandem (in-line) double prams

As the name suggests, tandem prams have two bassinets or seats that are aligned one ahead of the other. Tandem prams tend to be more compact than double prams which are side-by-side. They are also more maneuverable through doors and public transport. They do not have the same amount of storage space and are difficult to access when both seats are used particularly if your child is in the front seat.

Some first-time parents choose a tandem pram to future-proof their investment, especially in the case of children close in age. One of the most popular examples is our DUO2 pram which starts life as a single stroller and can be upgraded to a twin stroller through the addition of a second seat. It is also possible to convert it to a single stroller when your child reaches the age of buggy.

Tandem prams are available in many designs. For example the infant can be put in a bassinet on the top of the pram, while an older child sits on the seat below. Most can also be transformed into a travel unit by adding the car capsule, which is positioned in the top seat.

For the ultimate flexibility, a double side-by-side pram allows both kids to enjoy the ride together and have fun while they travel. This can prevent getting up or fighting over toys, and the fact that they're sitting close to one another allows you to easily go through doors and other obstacles easily.

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

Single prams

A single pram only allows for 1 seat or bassinet/carry cot. It is generally suitable from newborn until around. 4 years of age. A lot of single prams allow a toddler board (depending on which type of toddler board you select) to be attached at the back, so that a child can stand or sit, while you push the stroller.

Some first-time parents decide to ensure their pram is future-proofed by purchasing a double pram option, such as our DUO2. You can use it in single mode until the time you have your second child, and then switch it to a tandem inline double pram when the second baby arrives. This will save you the hassle and cost of purchasing a separate double stroller.

Tandem or in-line double prams are wider than side by side double prams, but they are more maneuverable on sidewalks and in stores. They can be harder to use while jogging, and require more effort to push up or down hills.

Side by side prams are larger than tandem or in-line double prams. They are a great option when you are planning to have two children who are similar in age - the children will be able to view and interact with each other from their seats. However, they are not as mobile and might not be able to fit through standard doorways as easily as tandem strollers.

Non-convertible side-by-side prams are not suitable for use in single mode - you will need to purchase another pram or stroller for your smaller child. They offer the benefit of being less expensive and will last for longer than convertible double prams since they aren't designed to be used in both single and double modes. The biggest drawback is that your child will eventually outgrow the side-by-side seat and will require to be moved to a toddler seat, which can be costly.
