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.

One of them is deciding on the most suitable double pram to meet your requirements. This article will explain the options available and also provide suggestions to help you select the right one for your growing family.

Convertible double prams

If you're looking to purchase a stroller compact that will grow with your family and your family, a convertible single double pram is a great option. These innovative frames, such as the Cybex Aton 4 Twin, can be extended in width to accommodate a second seat and typically come with the option for an additional shopping basket or two car seats or carrycots (with upper adapters and lower adapters readily available) to allow you to start your family with one buggy, and later upgrade to twins without needing to buy a new one and again. They typically offer more configuration and seating options for both children than other types of double prams, and have better weight distribution so they are generally easier to maneuver. They are compact, easy to use and versatile. Cons: Less storage space and less space for both children when compared to other designs.

Tandem (in-line) double prams

The name suggests that tandem prams for newborns have two seats or pram bassinets which are positioned one ahead of the other. Tandem prams are typically smaller than side by side double prams and can be easier to maneuver through doorways and on public transport. However, they don't have the same amount of storage space and may be more difficult to access when both seats are being used if your toddler is sitting in the front seat.

Some first-time parents opt for a tandem cheap stroller in order to safeguard their investment in the event that they have children of the same age. One of the most popular examples 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 older child outgrows the buggy.

Tandem prams come in many configurations. For example an infant can be placed in a bassinet at the top of the pram while an older child sits on the seat below. Most tandem prams can be converted to travel systems by adding car capsules to the top seat.

A side-by-side double stroller allows the children to ride together and converse as they go. This will help prevent them from fighting or wake each other up.

A side-byside is a great option for grandparents looking to be part of the fun. They can be used to push both children and help with shopping, running errands or attending events. They're usually cheaper than a tandem Pram double [yoursocialpeople.com] making them a great way to introduce grandkids to babysitting duties.

Single prams

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

Some first-time parents choose to secure their pram for the future by purchasing a double pram option, like our DUO2. This means that you will use the pram in a single mode while you have one child, and then switch it into a tandem double pram once bub number two is born. This will save you the cost and stress of purchasing an additional double pram.

In-line or tandem double prams may be a bit larger than side-by-side double prams, however, they are still much easier to manoeuvre on busy sidewalks and inside shops. However, they can be more difficult to use when running and will require more effort to push when you're going up or down hills.

Side by side prams are wider than in-line or tandem double prams. They are a good option when you are planning to have 2 children close in age. They will be able to see and interact with each other from their seats. However, they are less mobile and might not be able to fit through doorways that are standard as tandem strollers.

Non-convertible side-byside prams can only be used in single mode. You will need to purchase a new pram or a stroller for your children who are younger. However, 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 older child could rapidly outgrow the side-by-side and need to be moved into a toddler seat. This could be costly.
