I've actually tried three systems.

I tried the Shimano SPD's as my first clipless and since the tension is adjustable, I lowered and found clipping in and out to be easy enough.

I tried the Crank Brothers Candies because I saw some for dirt cheap at an REI used gear sale. The engagement and disengagement was generally smoother and sounded less metallic than the SPD's and I think I like them better.

I've become a roadie bike commuter and so I'm using Speedplay Light Action pedals, which are double-sided road pedals. They're easy to clip in and out of and I love em. I think that for a first time road pedal user or someone coming from double-side MTB pedals, the Light Actions would be the best choice.
