Buying a Convertible Single to double pushchair Stroller
There aren't many things more exciting than the news that you're expecting your second child. But getting your family ready for the arrival of this new baby has its own set of difficulties.
One of them is choosing the best travel pushchair double childs pram for your requirements. This article will discuss what options are available, as well as some suggestions to help you select the best travel pram pram for your growing family.
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 alternative. These innovative frames such as the Cybex Aton 4 Twin expand the width to accommodate a second seat. They also come with the option of incorporating a shopping basket, or two car seats/carseats (with upper and lower adapters). This allows you to begin your family with a single buggy, and then upgrade when you have twins. Double prams provide more seating and configuration options for both children when compared to other styles. They also have a more evenly distributed weight which makes them easier to move around. They are compact, easy to use and versatile. Cons: There is less space and storage for both children as in comparison to other designs.
Tandem (in-line) double prams
Like the name suggests, tandem prams are two seats or bassinets that face each other. Tandem prams tend to be narrower than double prams that are side-by-side. They are also easier to maneuver through doors and on public transport. They do not have much storage space and can be difficult to access when both seats are being used, especially when your child is in the front seat.
Many first-time parents opt for tandem strollers to protect their investment should they have more children with the same age. A popular model is our DUO2 pram that is initially designed as a single buggy and can be converted to a twin stroller by the addition of an additional seat. It is also possible to convert it back to a single stroller once your older child outgrows the buggy.
Tandem prams are available in a variety of configurations. For example the infant can be put in a bassinet at the top of the pram, while an older child sits on the seat below. Most tandem prams are able to be converted into an a travel system by putting car capsules to the top seat.
A side-by-side double stroller allows both children to share a ride and talk as they go. This can prevent the two of them from waking up or fighting over toys, while the fact that they're sitting next to each other allows you to easily go through doors and other obstacles easily.
A side-byside is also an ideal option for grandparents who want to get in the fun - they can push both kids around and help out with shopping, running errands, or attending events. They are often cheaper than tandem prams, making them a great option for grandparents who want to help with babysitting.
Single prams
A single pram sets is only able to allow one seat or a bassinet/carry cot - it is usually suitable from birth through to approx. 4 years old. Many single prams permit a toddler board (depending on which type of toddler board you choose) to be attached at the back, so that a child can stand or sit while you push the stroller.
Some parents who are first-time parents opt to future-proof their pram by acquiring a double pram option, like our DUO2. This means that you can use the pram in single mode when you have just one child, and then switch it into a tandem in-line double pram after baby number two is born. This saves you the cost and burden of having to purchase a separate double pram.
In-line or tandem double prams might be a bit larger than side-byside double prams but they are still more maneuverable on busy sidewalks and inside shops. However, they are more difficult to use when jogging and will require greater effort to push when climbing or descending hills.
They are a bit larger than tandem or in-line double prams However, they are a great choice for children who are similar in age. Children can see each the other and interact from their seats. They are less maneuverable than tandem strollers and may not pass through standard doors as easily.
Non-convertible side by sides cannot be used in single mode. You must purchase a different Pram Double or stroller for your youngest child. They are less expensive and last longer than double strollers that convert because they weren't designed to be used both in double and single mode. The biggest drawback is that your older child will soon outgrow the side-by-side seat and will require to be moved to a toddler seat which could be costly.
