Convertible double prams
If you're looking for a pram that can adapt to your family, a convertible single double pram is an excellent alternative.

They also come pushchair with car seat the option of adding a shopping basket, or two carrycots/carseats (with upper and lower adapters). This enables you to begin your family with a single buggy and then upgrade when you have twins. Double prams have more seating and configuration options for both children when compared to other styles. They also have better weight distribution, making them easier to move around. Pros: Easy to use small and compact. Cons: Less storage space and less space for both children and parents compared to some other designs.
Tandem (in-line) double prams
As the name suggests tandem prams have two bassinets or two seats that face one another. Tandem prams are typically smaller than side by side double prams and are easier to maneuver through doorways and on public transport. However they don't offer the same amount of storage space and can be more difficult to access when both seats are in use in the case of a toddler who is in the front seat.
Some first-time parents opt for a tandem stroller to protect their investment should they have children with the same age. One of the most popular examples is our DUO2 pram which starts life as a single buggy and can be converted to a twin stroller through the addition of an additional seat. It is also able to be converted to a single stroller once your child is older and outgrows the buggy.
Tandem prams are available in a variety of configurations and include the option for infants to be placed in a bassinet of the pram on top while an older child is seated in the seat below. Most tandem prams can be converted to a travel pram system by adding a car capsule in the top seat.
For the ultimate flexibility, a side-byside double pram double lets both children take the ride in tandem and play as they go. This will help prevent the two from fighting or waking eachother up.
A side-by-side is the best option for grandparents looking to get involved in the enjoyable. They can be used to push both children and help with shopping, running errands or even attending events. They are usually less expensive than tandem prams, which makes them a great option for grandparents to help with babysitting.
Single prams
A single pram is able to accommodate one seat or bassinet/carry cot. It is suitable for infants 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, so that the second child can stand or sit (depending on the type of toddler board) while you push the stroller forward.
Some first-time parents decide to future-proof the pram they purchase by purchasing a double option such as our DUO2. This means that you will use the pram and travel system in a single mode while you have a single child, and then switch it into a tandem in-line double childs pram once bub number two arrives. This will avoid the hassle and expense of buying an additional double stroller.
Tandem or in-line double prams are wider than side by side double prams, but they are more maneuverable on footpaths and in shops. They can be difficult to use when jogging, and require more effort to push up and down hills.
They are a bit larger than tandem or in-line double prams However, they are a great option if your children are close in age. They can view each one another and interact from their seats. They are less maneuverable than tandem strollers and might not be able to pass through doors as easily.
Non-convertible side by side prams cannot be used in single mode - you must purchase a different pram or stroller for your smaller child. However, they offer the benefit of being less expensive and will last for longer than convertible double prams as they are not built to be used in single and double modes. The main drawback is that your older child will eventually outgrow the side-byside seats and will require to be moved to a toddler's chair which could be costly.
