I had purchased a few accessories for my older stroller but Britax changed the design of the new stroller. Not only did the old brackets not fit the snack tray was unusable too. The mesh basket at the bottom was smaller I thought than the previous one.
I ended up returning this stroller and got a graco which came with snack bracket 2 cup holders, all for $50.
It is OK so far because the belts are a bit short for my older kid and the back doesn't provide enough support when it's adjusted upright.

As baby gets older, the reclining back doesn't appear to have a way to sit more upright to look around as easily (like at zoo, mall, etc), but we've been very happy.
I personally like the front wheel design. Before baby was born we went to Buy Buy Baby and took many models on a "test drive" around the store. Ones with single front wheels were easier to manuever/turn than dual front wheels.
You can also get clips for the sides so you can latch in a car seat also. For the whole setup, we paid a LOT more than $99, but we've been happy with it. The stroller has lasted and lasted. I'd be tempted to get another if it hadn't held up so well.
It is a bit bulky for the Mrs. to get in/out of trunk of our sedan, but she has no problem with slinging it in/out of SUV. For lighter uses (going to get the mail or whatever, we do keep an "umbrella stroller" I got from Walmart for $10 on hand. It's a touch more involved to fold up, but it's far and away lighter. It has dual front wheels so it can be a pain to turn/menuever compared to the Britax
As for stability, for day-outtings like zoo or festivals, we can really load down the Britax and have no fears of it tipping. The cargo space underneath holds snacks, diapers, thermos/nalgene, shoes, toys, even our jackets and any small things we buy. We have the "organizer" bag/pouch to go across the push-handle area to store our phones, drinks, and other things we need at the ready - great addition if you can add it. The angle of the handle and position of the lower basket also lets you stow a full-length golf umbrella kinda-vertically in case rain is in the forecast.
All in all, we've been very pleased with this stroller.

Does anybody have a recommendation for a good but affordable car seat/stroller system? This stroller sounds nice for the ability to jog without the massive bike tires, plus great storage.
