Convertible double prams

If you're looking for a pram that can adapt to 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 child and will typically have the option of an additional shopping basket, or two carrycots/car seats (with upper adapters and lower adapters available) to allow you to begin your family with just one buggy and later upgrade to twins without having to buy a new one once more. They typically offer more configuration and seating options for children and adults than other models of double prams too and have better weight distribution, which means they're generally easier to maneuver. Pros: Compact, simple to use, and versatile. Cons: Less storage and less space for both children when compared to other designs.

Tandem (in-line) double prams

The name suggests that tandem prams come with two bassinets or seats for prams which are positioned one ahead of the other. Tandem prams are generally narrower than side by side double prams and can be easier to maneuver through doorways and on public transport. They do not have much storage space and prams can be difficult to reach when both seats are used, especially when 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 that are similar in age. Our DUO2 pram is a well-known example. It's designed as a single stroller and can be converted to a twin stroller by adding an additional seat. It is also able to be converted back to a single stroller if your older child outgrows the buggy.

Tandem prams come in a variety of configurations with the option of an infant to lie in a bassinet for the pram on top while an older child sits in the seat below. Most tandem prams are able to be converted into travel systems by adding a car capsule in the top seat.

A side-by-side double stroller lets both children to share a ride and converse while they ride. This will help avoid the two of them from waking up or fighting over toys, while the fact that they're seated close to one another makes it possible to get through doors and other obstacles with ease.

A side-byside is the ideal option for grandparents looking to participate in the fun. They can be used to push both children and help with shopping, running errands, or even attending events. They are often cheaper than tandem prams, which makes them a great option for grandparents to assist with babysitting.

Single prams

A single pram is capable of accommodating one seat or a bassinet/carry-cot. It is suitable for newborns up to about 4 years old. age. Four years old. Many single prams also allow a toddler board to be attached to the back, so that a second child can sit or stand (depending on the kind of toddler board) while you push the stroller along.

Some first-time parents choose to secure their pram for the future by purchasing a double-pram option, such as our DUO2. This means that you can use the pram in a single mode while you have a single child and then convert it into a tandem in-line double pram when baby number two arrives. This can save you the expense and stress of purchasing an additional double pram.

Tandem or in-line double prams travel system are a bit wider than side by side double prams, yet they are more maneuverable on sidewalks and in stores. However, they are more difficult to use while jogging and will require greater effort to push when going up or down hills.

Side by side prams are much more spacious than tandem or in-line double prams, but they are a great option for families with two children of similar age - the children will be able to see and interact with one another from their seats. However, they are less mobile and might not be able to fit through doors as easily as tandem strollers.

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 offer the benefit of being a cheaper option and last longer than convertible double prams, as they are not built to be used in single and double modes. The main drawback is that your child will eventually outgrow the side-by-side seat and will need to be moved to a toddler seat which could be costly.
