The prams that parents choose to use can be a reflection of their parenting style. A choice of a pram isn’t only an investment, but also an indicator of status.
Kari Boiler had a grand plan for the 15 Bugaboo Frogs that she brought back from Amsterdam. She wanted to put them in the hands of prominent parents.
What is a single buggy?
A single buggy is a lightweight four-wheeled carriage, which is usually pulled by a single horse. Amish people often use it, and they also call it a sleigh. Families often choose one buggy as it allows them to move around easily.
Since 1998, Phil&teds has always been at the forefront of technological advancement. Our stroller and Double Kit(tm), bundles, offer a variety of options for all family situations.
Sport(tm), a brilliant single buggy right from the beginning can protect your wallet and future-proof your family. Voyager(tm) can be adapted to carry two (or three!) In the space of one buggy!
Buggies that are single buggies.
A light buggy is an excellent option for parents who travel often, plan to use public transport with their child or take a trip on vacation. They usually weigh less than 6kg in weight and have a compact fold, meaning they can be easily carried in the overhead luggage compartments on flights. Buggies that weigh less than 6kg are great to travel with as they’re generally easy to maneuver. They’ll typically come with a raincover and sunshade too. They’re always worth investing in as they will help keep your child comfortable at all times!
A jogger buggy is equipped with large BMX wheels and is designed for exercise. It also has a adequate suspension to withstand the bounces and bumps of off-road riding. It can be difficult to control a jogger buggie because the front wheels may be able to rotate. Locking the wheel is essential when crossing roads or putting on kerbs.
Some single buggies can be convertible which allows the seat to be positioned forwards or backwards (known as a parent-facing). This is ideal for infants who are fussy and prefer to be in a position to be able to see their parents. Other models are only front-facing and are better for older children who do not want to be interrupted.
There are also tandem buggies, which are designed to carry two children of similar age side-by-side. This is a great option for newborns or twins who are close in age, but it can be a challenge to maneuver, particularly in a small space. Some tandem buggies have a reclining mechanism in each seat, meaning that your toddler can lie flat while you push them.
The ideal single pushchair with buggy board-buggy will depend on the size of your family, budget and your lifestyle. You should consider a buggy that is lightweight and includes a seat that can be used from the time of birth. If you’re looking to protect your finances, consider a single buggy which can be converted to a double buggy if the time comes. Phil&teds created the first inline buggy and now provide a wide selection of double kit and stroller bundles that will assist you in achieving this.
A single buggy purchase
A new buggy is an expensive purchase. Most pushchairs that come that include bassinets for babies can cost upwards of PS700. This is a significant amount for parents on a an extremely tight budget.
The truth is that unless you live in an urban area that has public transport at your fingertips or have a massive car garage and spend every weekend on muddy parks, the majority of families purchase two buggies. One of the most robust buggies that can hold loads and handle rough terrain, and possibly grow with the family and a lighter travel buggy to take on holidays and tight spaces, such as on public transport or crowded streets.
We suggest buying a single buggy that you love, and then selling it when your child is older and you have to upgrade to a double. This way, you won’t be stuck with a novelty that you don’t really need.
Double buggy: Buying one
When buying a double buggy you have a lot to think about, from the amount it will cost to the type of reclining position the seats provide. You will also want to think about whether you will require a large shopping basket and what type of suspension the buggy comes with. It is also worth thinking about what features you would like the buggy to have, such as sunshades and rain covers as well as snack tray.
There are a myriad of double buggies on the market. The one that is right for you will depend on the person who will use it, the lifestyle you’re living, and your budget. If you’re expecting twins or have two children and a newborn, you might need an extra flexible pushchair that will be able to accommodate the growing family. UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a great example of this, offering 30 different seating configurations for all age groups. This allows you to use it as a single stroller from birth, and later convert it to a side-by-side model when your children get older. The Ride-Along Piggyback Board can be used to carry an additional child, making it a very flexible option.
Another option is the Mountain Buggy Duet V3.2. This is one of the slimmest double buggies side-by-side available, and comes with dimensions that are nearly as small as a single buggy. It comes with two seats facing the world with independently reclining options that can be converted to a lie-flat position. It can be adjusted to accommodate two carrycots, cocoons or two car seats for babies.
The handle folds with just one hand using the twist mechanism. It’s lightweight and compact, but not as small as the Cybex Gazelle S. It has a smooth footbrake and good suspension, making it easy to push across rough surfaces. The seats and harness straps of the car are cushioned, making it comfortable for your child to sit in.
