Convertible double prams

A convertible single to double stroller is an excellent choice for those who want a stroller to grow with your family. These innovative frames such as the Cybex Aton 4 Twin expand widthways to accommodate a second seat. They also come with the option of adding a shopping basket, or two carrycots/carseats (with upper and lower adapters). This lets you to begin your family with a single buggy and then upgrade when you have twins. They usually offer more configuration and seating options for both children than other styles of double prams, and have better weight distribution so they're generally easier to maneuver. Pros: Simple to use, compact and versatile. Cons: Compact prams Less storage space and less space for both children when compared to other designs.

Tandem (in-line) double prams

As the name implies, tandem prams have two bassinets or seats which are positioned one over the other. Tandem prams are generally narrower than side by side double prams and can be more maneuverable through doorways and on public transport. They do not have as much storage and can be difficult to access when both seats are being used, especially if your child is sitting in the front.

Many first-time parents opt for a tandem stroller to protect their investment in case they have more children with the same age. A popular example is our DUO2 pram, which is designed as a single stroller and can be converted to a twin stroller by the addition of the second seat. It can also be converted to a single stroller if your older child outgrows the buggy.

Tandem prams can be found in a variety of designs. For example the infant can be placed in a bassinet on the top of the pram while an older child sits on the seat below. The majority of tandem prams can be converted to an a travel system by putting car capsules to the top seat.

For the ultimate flexibility, a side-byside double pram lets both children take the ride in tandem and play as they go. This will prevent the two from fighting or waking eachother up.

A side-byside is the ideal option for grandparents looking to participate in the activities. They can carry both children around and help with shopping, running errands or even attending events. They are usually less expensive than a tandem pram which makes them an excellent way to introduce grandkids to babysitting duties.

Single prams

A single pram can only allow one seat or bassinet/carry cot - it is usually suitable from birth through to approx. 4 years of age. A lot of single prams allow toddler boards (depending on the type of toddler board you choose) to be tacked to the back so that a child can stand or sit, while you push the stroller.

Some parents who are new to the family decide to secure their pram for the future purchase by purchasing double options like our DUO2. This means that you will use the pram in single mode while you have a single child and then convert it into a tandem in-line double Pram double once bub number two arrives. This can save you the expense and stress of purchasing an additional double pram.

Tandem or in-line double prams are a bit larger than side by side double prams, but they are more maneuverable on pedestrian paths and in shops. However, they are more difficult to use during running and will require more effort to push when climbing or descending hills.

Side by side prams are much larger than tandem or in-line double prams for newborns. They are a good choice if you plan to have two children of similar age. They can see and interact with one another from their seats. They are more difficult to maneuver than tandem strollers and may not fit through standard doors as easily.

Non-convertible side-byside prams can only be used in single mode. You'll have to buy another pram or a stroller for your children who are younger. They are cheaper and last longer than double strollers that convert, because they were not intended to be used in double and single modes. The main downside is that your older child will quickly outgrow the side-byside seats and will have to be transferred to a toddler's seat which could be costly.
