Buying a Convertible Single to Double Stroller

The news that you're expecting your second child is among the most exciting things you can hear. But, preparing your family for this new addition is not without its own set of obstacles.

One of them is deciding on the right double pram for your needs. This article will review the various 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 and travel system that will grow with your family, a convertible single to double pram newborn is an excellent option. These innovative frames, such as the Cybex Aton 4 Twin, can be extended in width to accommodate a second seat. They will typically have the option for an additional shopping basket or even 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 the need to buy a new one 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 are generally easier to maneuver. They are compact, easy to use, and versatile. Cons: It takes up less space and storage for both children as compared to other designs.

Tandem (in-line) double prams

The name suggests that tandem prams have two bassinets or seats which are positioned one over the other. Tandem prams for newborns are generally smaller than double prams that are side by side. They can also be easier to maneuver through doors and on public transport. They don't offer as much storage and can be difficult to access when both seats are being used particularly when your child is sitting in the front.

Some first-time parents opt for a tandem stroller to protect their investment should they have children of the same age. A popular model is our DUO2 pram which starts life as a single buggy and can be converted to a twin stroller by the addition of the second seat. It can also be converted back to an individual stroller when your child's older one outgrows it.

Tandem prams come in a variety of designs with the option of infants to be placed in a pram bassinet on top, while an older child sits in the seat below. They can also be transformed into a travel unit by adding the car capsule, which is positioned in the top seat.

For maximum flexibility, a side-byside double pram lets both children take a ride together and have fun while they travel. This will help prevent the two from fighting or wake each other up.

A side-by-side is the best choice for grandparents who want to be part of the fun. They can push both children and help with shopping, running errands or attending events. They're usually less expensive than a tandem stroller, which makes them ideal for introducing grandchildren to babysitting.

Single prams

A single pram is capable of accommodating one seat or a bassinet/carry-cot. It is suitable for infants to around 4 years of age. Four years old. Many single pushchairs prams allow a toddler board (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 future-proof their pram by acquiring a double pram option, like our DUO2. This means that you can use the Pram Double (Audi.Nivus.Ru) in a single mode while you have a single child, and then change it into a tandem double pram and travel system when baby number two is born. This can save you the expense and hassle of having to purchase a separate double pram.

Tandem or in-line double prams are wider than side by side double prams, but they are more maneuverable on pedestrian paths and in shops. However, they can be more difficult to use during running and will require more effort to push when you're climbing or descending hills.

They are larger than tandem or in-line double prams, but they are a great choice if your children are in the same age range. They can view each one another and interact from their seats. They are more difficult to maneuver than tandem strollers and may not fit through standard doors as easily.

Non-convertible side-by-side prams cannot be used in single mode - you will have to buy a new pram or stroller for your smaller child. They are less expensive and last longer than double strollers with convertibles because they weren't designed to be used both in single and double mode. The biggest drawback is that your older child may soon outgrow a side-byside and need to be moved to a toddler's seat. This could be costly.
