No complaints with the eggbeaters here.

I've been running the entry-level "chrome" eggbeaters with casual, skate-style MTB shoes for several months now and haven't had any problems clipping out, nor have I had issues with clipping out accidentally. I did have to trim the sole a little bit around the cleat to make clipping out a little smoother.
