Convertible double prams

A convertible single-to-double stroller is an excellent choice for those who want a stroller to expand with your family.

They will typically have the option of adding an additional shopping basket or even two car seats or carrycots (with upper adapters and lower adapters readily available) to allow you to begin your family with just one buggy and later upgrade to twins without the need to purchase a new pram once more.

Tandem (in-line) double prams

As the name implies, Baby Strollers tandem prams pushchairs Prams pushchairs are two seats or bassinets facing each other. Tandem prams travel system tend to be narrower than double prams that are side-by-side. They can also be more maneuverable through doors and on public transport. They don't offer the same amount of storage space and are difficult to reach when both seats are used, especially 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. A popular example is our DUO2 pram, which is designed as a single buggy and can be converted to a twin stroller with the addition of an additional seat. It also converts back into one pram once your child's older one outgrows it.

Tandem prams come in a range of configurations and include the option for an infant to lie in a pram bassinet on top while an older child sits in the seat below. Many can be transformed into a travel unit by incorporating an automobile capsule that is placed on the top seat.

A side-by-side can be an ideal option for grandparents who want to get in on the fun. They can push both kids around and assist with shopping, running errands or attending events. They are usually cheaper than a tandem pram so they can be ideal for introducing 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 up to around. 4 years of age. Many single prams also allow a toddler's board to be attached to the back of the stroller, so that a second child can stand or sit (depending on the kind of toddler board) while you push the stroller through.

Some parents who are first-time parents opt to ensure their pram is future-proofed by acquiring a double pram option, like our DUO2. This means you'll use the pram in a single mode when you have just one child, and then switch it into a tandem in-line double pram when baby number two is born. This will save you the cost and burden of having to purchase an additional double pram.

Tandem or in-line double prams are a bit wider than side by side double prams, yet they are easier to maneuver on crowded pedestrian paths and in shops. They can be harder to use while jogging, and require more effort to push up or down hills.

Side by side prams are much wider than in-line or tandem double prams for sale. They are a great option for families with two children who are similar in age. The children 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 doors as easily as a tandem stroller.

Side-by-side prams that are not convertible cannot be used in single mode. You'll need to buy another pram or a stroller to accommodate your younger children. They have the advantage of being less expensive and will last for longer than convertible double prams because they aren't built to be used in both single and double modes. The main disadvantage is that your older child may quickly outgrow a side-by-side and need to be moved to a toddler's seat. This could be costly.
