Convertible double prams

A convertible single to double stroller is a great choice for those who want a stroller to expand with your family. These innovative frames, such as the Cybex Aton 4 twin pushchair, can be expanded in width to accommodate a second seat. They typically come with the option for an additional shopping basket or even two carrycots/car seats (with upper adapters and lower ones available) so that you can begin your family with just one buggy, and later upgrade to twins without needing to purchase a new one and again. 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. Pros: Easy to use small and compact pushchair. Cons: Less storage and less space for both children compared to some other designs.

Tandem (in-line) double prams

The name suggests that tandem prams have two bassinets or seats for prams that are aligned one ahead of the other. Tandem prams are generally more compact than double prams which are side-by-side. They are also more maneuverable through doorways and in public transport. They don't offer as much storage and can be difficult to access when both seats are used particularly if your child is sitting in the front.

Some first-time parents choose a tandem stroller to ensure the future of their investment, particularly in the case of children who are close to the age of. A popular model is our DUO2 pram which starts life as a single buggy and can be converted to a twin stroller with the addition of the second seat. It is also possible to convert it to a single stroller when your older child outgrows the buggy.

Tandem prams are available in a variety of configurations. For instance the infant can be placed in a bassinet at the top of the pram, while an older child sits on the seat below. They can also be converted into a travel system by incorporating an automobile capsule that is placed on the top of the seat.

To give you the maximum flexibility, a side-byside double pram allows both kids to take the ride in tandem and have fun while they travel. This can prevent them waking each other up or fighting over toys, while the fact that they're sitting near to one another means you can easily get through doors and other obstacles easily.

A side-byside is a great choice for grandparents who want to be part of the activities. They can carry both children around and help with shopping, running errands, or even attending events. They are usually less expensive than tandem prams, which makes them an excellent choice for grandparents who want to help 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 around 4 years of age. Four years old. A majority of single prams allow for a toddler board to be attached to the back, so that the second child can sit or stand (depending on the type of toddler board) while you push the stroller forward.

Some parents who are first-time parents opt to ensure their pram is future-proofed by purchasing a double pram option, such as our DUO2. This means that you can use the pram in single mode while you have a single child, and then change it into a tandem double pram once bub number two arrives. 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 larger than side by side double prams but are still easier to maneuver on crowded pedestrian paths and in shops. However, they are more difficult to use while running and will require more effort to push when you're climbing or descending hills.

Side by side prams travel system are much larger than tandem or in-line double prams. They are a good choice for families with two children of similar age - the children can see and interact with one another from their seats. They are less maneuverable than tandem strollers and might not be able to pass through doors as easily.

Non-convertible side-byside prams can only be used in single mode. You'll need to purchase a new pram or a stroller to accommodate your children who are younger. However, they have the advantage of being a cheaper option and last longer than double prams that convert, as they are not built to be used in both single and double modes. The main disadvantage 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.
