We have the radio flyer with the canopy, seat belt, and cup holders. Love it! It was a present from my dad when V turned 1. We live off of a greenway and use it all the time. The seat belts are just lap belts which doesnt really do much to keep her in it though so if she seems like she might be crabby on a walk we take the Bob stroller instead. I like the canopy bc we live in Texas and it's hot as hell most of the year and V inherited my pasty skin. The wagon is pretty huge so make sure you have somehwre to keep it when not in use.
We don't have one at our house, but FIL has one at his. It's just a simple Radio Flyer one. Nothing fancy on it, I think he found it at a garage sale. But they love it. When he spends the night, FIL will take him on morning walks around his neighborhood.
I think a canopy would be nice just to block the sun. I'm not sure where you are at, but in Florida where we are the sun can be brutal.

For toting toddlers around, the seatbelts/canopies/etc. look awesome. I've seen a lot of people with those and they (and their toddlers) look happy.
We have an old-school metal radio flyer. It was a hand-me-down from C's grandpa, and with a fresh coat of paint it's almost like new, so they last and stand up to a lot of abuse. I played with ours all throughout childhood, so a basic one will get used for a long time. I wouldn't use it to pull C on a long walk yet. I think he still needs a seat with a back so he doesn't get distracted and topple over. But when he's a bit older, it'll be great.
