I have two pairs of the Shimano SPD mtb pedals. M515s and M520s. Both have been bullet proof. I use Specialized Sport Mtn shoes with them and have no complaints. Easy in and out, two side pedals, walkable shoes.
I also have a set of Look Keos, the least expensive ones that I use with Sidi Zeta Megas. Easy in and out, single sided, so not as easy as the Shimanos. Look cleats are not walkable at all. Make sure you get cleat covers. Also pretty much have to use a road shoe with this pedal.
I have never had either pedal accidentally release on me, etc.
I weigh between 230 and 250 usually closer to that top number.
