Platform/Clipless Pedal Concerns

I just bought my wife a new mountain bike. She will be riding it mostly on hard pack trails that will not necessarily be very technical. She also wants the convenience to hop on her bike to ride down the street to shop, get a coffee, visit a friend etc.

She wants the control that you get with clipless but the convenience of a platform. So we are looking at different kinds of platform combo pedals. She prefers the kinds that have the clip in option on both sides, not just one side.

Her concerns are on her ability to clip out of the pedals without too much effort, especially since she is very petite. She has on her bike now, Time Atacs, but is having a heck of a time clipping out. She has used SPD style Richey Pedals in the past and had no problem.

So, with the combined experience that we may find on here, what double sided platform combo pedals would you recommend that are easy to clip out of for a light weight petite female rider.

Thanks!
