The Leading Reasons Why People Are Successful In The Pram Double Industry
Buying a Convertible Single to Double Stroller
There are few things more exciting than hearing that you're expecting your second child. But, preparing your family for this new addition has its own set of difficulties.
One of them is deciding on the best double pram for your requirements. This article will discuss the options available along with some tips to help you choose the right one for your growing family.
Convertible double prams
If you're looking for a baby stroller that can adapt to your family, a convertible single double pram is a great option. These innovative frames, such as the Cybex Aton 4 Twin, can be expanded in width to accommodate a second seat and usually come with the option for an additional shopping basket or even two car seats/car carrycots (with upper adapters and lower adapters available) to allow you to start your family with one buggy, and later upgrade to twins without needing to purchase a new pram again. They usually offer more configuration and seating options for children and adults than other models of double prams, and will have better weight distribution so they're generally easier to maneuver. Pros: Easy to use, compact and versatile. Cons: Less storage and less space for both children and parents compared to some other designs.
Tandem (in-line) double prams
Like the name suggests tandem prams have two seats or bassinets facing each other. They are generally smaller than side-by-side double prams and can be easier to manoeuvre through doors and on public transport. However they don't offer the same amount of storage space and are more difficult to access when both seats are in use if your toddler is sitting in the front seat.
Many first-time parents opt for a tandem stroller in order to safeguard their investment in case they have children of the same age. Our DUO2 pram is a well-known model. It's designed as a single stroller and can be converted into a twin babiie stroller by adding the second seat. It is also able to be converted to a single foldable stroller when your older child outgrows the buggy.
Tandem prams are available in many designs. For instance the infant can be put in a bassinet on the top of the pram, while an older child sits on the seat below. The majority of tandem prams are able to be converted into a travel system by adding car capsules to the top seat.
To give you the maximum flexibility, a side-byside double pram lets both kids enjoy the ride together and interact as they go. This will help prevent the two from fighting or waking eachother up.
A side-by-side is the best choice for grandparents who want to get involved in the activities. They can carry 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 who want to help with babysitting.
Single prams
A single pram is only able to accommodate one seat or a bassinet/carry-cot. It is suitable for infants up to approximately 4 years of age. Four years old. A lot of single prams allow a toddler's 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 along.
Some first-time parents choose to ensure their pram is future-proofed by purchasing a double pram option, like our DUO2. This means you'll use the pram in single mode while you have a single child and then convert it into a tandem 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 for newborns, yet they are easier to maneuver on crowded sidewalks and in stores. However, they are more difficult to use when jogging and will require greater effort to push when climbing or descending hills.
Side by side prams are more spacious than tandem or in-line double prams pushchairs prams. They are a great option if you plan to have two children who are similar in age - the children will be able to view and interact with one another from their seats. However, they are less maneuverable and could not pass through doors as easily as a tandem stroller.
Non-convertible side by side cheap prams are not suitable for use in single mode. You will have to buy a new pram or stroller for your younger child. They have the advantage of being a cheaper option and will last for longer than convertible double prams, because they aren't built to be used in single and double modes. The main disadvantage is that your child may soon outgrow a side-byside and require to be shifted to a toddler's seat. This can be expensive.
