Pros
4 sided very easy entry, simple to repair/rebuild (though I haven't had to), nothing sticks to/in them.
Cons
not an option to ride without clips, hitting anything on the trail will pop you out of the clips
Review
the deal on these was too good to pass up, so despite my hesitation about these being my first clip-ins and not having any platform, I decided to go for it.
I couldn't be happier. entry is very easy. No platform hasn't really been an issue. there are times when I would like to get a crank going before i step in but it has just taken some getting used to. they don't feel any different from my friend's Candy pedals once you're clipped in, so you won't miss the platform unless you want to ride in regular shoes sometimes.

A fantastic clipless pedal with some awesome deals on line and in stores. I used SPDs for years but am now converted. Get them.

Review
I switched to these from my SPD's and I love them so much I just ordered another pair for my commuter bike.
Pros
They shed mud, dirt, snow, and all kinds of muck you can throw at it easily. Mine have taken a good couple of hits and are still very solid. They release from your cleats pretty easily.
Cons
They can be a bit of a pain to get in sometimes.
Review
The pedals are for the most part easy to use, easy to install, easy to come out of it when you want to, and are durable. They make riding my bike alot less of a chore when hitting the trails.
Pros
These pedals are light, easy to use and durable.
Cons
Since they do not have a platform, they put a focused pressure on a small part of your foot. On epic rides this could bring some pain.
Review
I have had these for about 6 years and have yet to have any problems with them. A great value.

Pros
Pedals are light, reasonably priced and easy to get in and out of with the 4 entry points.
Cons
No platform to protect spindles. Had spring break after 4 months of usage, but Crank Bros service excellent and rebuilt for free.
Review
Decent pedal for the price
Cons
no adjustablity comes out easy on downhill
Review
BUY THEM
Pros
These pedals are great and for a great price. They are light and are easy to clip in and out of them.
Cons
None
Review
I would get these pedals if you don't have money and you need good cheap clipless pedals.

Pros
I have ridden many clipless pedals and these by far are the best. They never clog even in the mud. Easy entry by either pulling your foot back or pushing forward. Four sides make it easier to enter.
Cons
Not a large platform. If your out of the clips occationally then these aren't for you.
Review
Get them if you want clog proof, bomb proof pedals. I have them two years and no problems.
Pros
Easy to clip in and out no matter pedal orientation.
Never gets clogged with dirt or mud.
Cons
A little heavier than other clipless pedals, but that's mainly due to materials.
Review
These were my first clipless pedals. They were easy to get used to, and I haven't had a problem with them in 3 years.
Pros
4 sided design makes it easy to clip in and out. Does not get clogged with mud. Reasonably light.
Cons
Not much. This version is somewhat heavier than the other eggbeaters. Not particularly low profile.
Review
Recommend to anyone looking at clipless pedals.
