Strengths: This is a surprisingly versatile pedal. It's easy to clip into and out of and has the flexibility to be used with street shoes should the mood strike. The non-SPD side is reasonably broad and comfortable, but not as comfortable as a pedal designed exclusively for street/athletic shoes.
I'm surprised that some reviewers complain about getting in and out of the pedals. These are no worse than the majority of SPD pedals available.Weaknesses: Biggest weakness is that they are a bit heavy, which isn't a big deal for commuting, but for those looking to trim fat from their road bike I wouldn't recommend them. They are relatively expensive, but seem to fall in a comfortable niche between cheapo rat trap pedals and higher-end, lightweight stuff.Bottom Line: A good compromise pedal that works quite well for clip -in commuting while offering the hybrid possibilities of a pedal that is also useful when you just want to throw on some Chuck Taylors and cruise around the neighborhood or to the Quik Trip.

Strengths: They seem quite strong, easy to use and adjust. As the other reviewer, I bought those so I can ride with any kind of shoes, depending on the reason I'm riding:
- Going to buy groceries or going to the office with normal shoes.
- Going for a ride with mtb shoesWeaknesses: I dont know how heavy they are and how they compare to other similar pedals, but these are obviously not the lightest pedals available.Bottom Line: Been riding with them for about 750km, I'm happy with them, they do their job properly, as I expected it. Quite nice design also!
I'll probably turn to something lighter for my next pedals set, but for now, they are so convenient that I don't mind the extra weight.
I picked the silver model which I guess wears off better than black.

Strengths: Good dual use pedal for beginners. They appear to be quite robust.Weaknesses: It can take a few moments to get the side of the pedal you want. There is no stomp and go.Bottom Line: I bought these pedals so that I can ride trails clipped in, but also so that I can just ride up to the corner to get more beer in a pair of flip-flops. They are not the lightest pedals (not even close) but I am a beginner with only one bike, so the difference in weight is not an issue to me.
Overall, I am pleased with the pedals and I would recommend them.
Favorite Trail: The one I'm on
