According to the product specialist

Pros
The price/quality ratio of these pedals is very good.
These pedals incorporate the technique of much more expensive pedals!
These pedals are the work horse of Shimano pedals.
On this pedal you have a larger support surface, which gives you more control over the bike.
This pedal will last a long time.
Mud and dirt are removed well by the open construction.
The steel and aluminium construction makes these pedals very robust.
The Mallet 2's design ensures that less dirt and mud accumulates in the pedals.
Cons
These pedals are a bit on the heavy side.
This is not the lightest pedal.
Due to the use of extra durable materials, these pedals are slightly heavier than comparable pedals.
