I've had these snowshoes for about five years. At first I didn't mind the binding system but have grown to like it less as time went on. I just upgraded to Marc's Snowshoe Bindings and so far I am pretty happy with them. I only have a mile or so on them now but the ease of getting them on and off makes them worth the $40...

Here's an install video :


and a little test of them out at our cabin :
