The news that you're expecting your second child is among the most exciting things to hear. Preparing your family for the new baby can be a challenge.
The best double pram is among them. This article will go over the options available and offer some tips on how you can select the right one for you and your growing family.
Convertible double prams
A convertible single-to-double stroller is a great choice for those who want a stroller that can grow with your family. 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 of an additional shopping basket or two car seats or carrycots (with upper adapters and lower adapters readily available) to allow you to start your family with one buggy and later upgrade to twins without the need to purchase a new pram again. These double prams offer more seating and configuration options for both children when compared to other types of. They also have better weight distribution, making them more maneuverable. They are easy to use compact and flexible. Cons: There is less space and storage space for both children and parents when compared to other designs.
Tandem (in-line) double prams
Like the name suggests the term "twin pram" refers to two seats or bassinets that face one another. Tandem prams tend to be narrower than double prams that are side-by-side. They can also be more maneuverable through doors and on public transport. However they don't have enough storage space, and are more difficult to access when both seats are used when your child is in the front seat.
Some parents who are first-time parents choose a tandem stroller in order to safeguard their investment in case they have children with the same age. Our DUO2 pram Double is a well-known example. It's initially a single stroller however, it can be transformed into a twin stroller by adding the second seat. It is also able to be converted to a single stroller once your older child outgrows the buggy.
Tandem prams are available in a variety of configurations. For example an infant can be put in a bassinet on 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 pram system by putting car capsules to the top seat.
A side-by-side double stroller allows the children to ride together and Infant Carriages converse as they go. This can help to avoid getting up or fighting over toys, and the fact they're seated close to one another allows you to easily go through doors and other obstacles easily.
A side-by-side is the best option for grandparents looking to get involved in the fun. They can be used to push both children around and help with shopping, running errands, or attending events. They're usually cheaper than a tandem stroller, making them a great way to introduce grandchildren to babysitting.
Single prams
A single pram is only able to allow one seat or bassinet/carry-cot. It is generally suitable from pushchair newborn until around. 4 years of age. A lot of single prams for newborns allow a toddler board to be attached to the back, so that another child can stand or sit (depending on the type of toddler board) while you push the stroller along.
Some parents who are first-time parents opt to ensure their pram is future-proofed by acquiring a double pram option, such as our DUO2. You can use it in single mode until you have a second child and then change it to a tandem inline double pram once the second baby arrives. This will eliminate the hassle and expense of purchasing an additional double stroller.
In-line or tandem double prams may be a bit wider than side-by-side double prams but they are still more maneuverable on busy sidewalks and inside shops. However, they can be more difficult to use during running and will require more effort to push when going up or down hills.
Side by side prams are larger than tandem or in-line double prams but are a good choice when you are planning to have two children who are similar in age - the children can see and interact with each other from their seats. They are more difficult to maneuver than tandem strollers and may not fit through standard doors as easily.
Non-convertible side by sides are not suitable for use in single mode. You must purchase a different pram or stroller for your younger child. They are less expensive and last longer than double strollers with convertibles since they were not designed to be used both in single and double mode. The main disadvantage is that your child may soon outgrow a side-byside and require a change into a toddler's chair. This could be costly.
