One of the most popular examples is our DUO2 pram which starts life as a single buggy and can be converted to a twin stroller through the addition of the second seat. It can also be converted to a single triple stroller when your older child outgrows the buggy.

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

Side by side prams are much more spacious than tandem or in-line double prams but are a good option for families with two children who are similar in age.
