Convertible double prams

They also come with the possibility of adding a grocery basket, or two car seats/carseats (with upper and lower adapters).

Tandem (in-line) double prams

Like the name suggests, tandem prams are two seats or bassinets that face each other. They are generally smaller than side-by-side double prams, and are easier to maneuver through doors and on public transport. They don't have as much storage and can be difficult to reach when both seats are used particularly if your child is sitting in the front.

Some parents who are new to parenting opt for a tandem stroller to ensure the future of their investment, especially in the case of children that are similar in age. Our DUO2 pram is a popular model.

It also converts back into an individual stroller when your elder child outgrows it.

For the ultimate flexibility, a double side-by-side pram lets both kids take a ride together and play as they go. This can prevent the two of them from waking up or fighting over toys, while the fact that they're seated next to each other makes it possible to get through doors and other obstacles easily.

A side-by-side is also an ideal option for grandparents looking to join in on the fun. They can push both kids around and help out with shopping, running errands or attending events. They're usually less expensive than a tandem stroller, making them an excellent way to introduce grandkids to babysitting duties.

Many single prams pushchairs prams pushchairs also allow a toddler board to be connected to the back so that a second child can stand or sit (depending on the kind of toddler board) while you push the stroller along.

You can use it in single mode until you have a second child and then switch it into a tandem double pram when your second baby arrives. This can save you the expense and burden of having to purchase an additional double pram.

In-line or tandem double prams can be a bit wider than side-byside double prams but they are still more maneuverable on busy footpaths and inside shops. They can be harder to use while jogging and require more effort to push them up and down hills.

They are wider than tandem or in-line double strollers However, they are a great choice if your children are similar 3 in one pushchair age. Children can see each other and interact from their seats. They are less maneuverable than tandem strollers and may not be able to pass through doors as easily.

Non-convertible side by side prams cannot be used in single mode - you will have to buy a new 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 biggest drawback is that your child could rapidly outgrow the side-by-side and need to be moved into a toddler seat. This could be costly.
