Tandem (in-line) double prams

As the name implies, tandem prams have two bassinets or seats for prams that are aligned one ahead of the other. Tandem prams for sale tend to be more compact strollers than double prams which are side by side. They are also more maneuverable through doorways and in public transport. They do not have as much storage and are difficult to reach when both seats are being used especially if your child is in the front seat.

Some first-time parents opt for a tandem stroller to protect their investment in the event that they have children with the same age. One of the most popular examples is our DUO2 pram which starts life as a single stroller and can be converted to a twin stroller (url) with the addition of the second seat. It is also able to be converted back to a single stroller when your child is older and outgrows the buggy.

They are often cheaper than tandem prams, making them a great option for grandparents who want to help with babysitting.

Single prams

Many single prams allow toddler boards (depending on which type of toddler board you select) to be attached to the back so that another child can stand or sit, while you push the stroller.

Some parents who are first-time parents opt to secure their pram for the future by acquiring a double pram option, such as our DUO2. This means that you will use the pram in a single mode while you have one child, and then change it into a tandem in-line double pram when baby number two is born. This can save you the expense and hassle of having to purchase an additional double pram.

Tandem or in-line double prams are a bit bigger than side-by-side double prams, yet they are easier to maneuver on crowded footpaths and in shops. They can be difficult to use when jogging and require more effort to push up or down hills.

Side by side prams are more spacious than tandem or in-line double prams but are a good option when you are planning to have two children who are similar in age - the children can see and interact with one another from their seats. They are less maneuverable than tandem strollers and may not pass through standard doors as easily.

Side-by-side prams that are not convertible cannot be used in single mode. You'll need to purchase a different pram set or a stroller for your children's younger ones. However, they have the advantage of being a cheaper option and last longer than convertible double prams since they aren't designed to be used in both single and double modes. The main downside is that your child will quickly outgrow the side-by-side seat and will require to be transferred to a toddler's seat, which can be costly.
