I have been involved with winter sports all my life. I started snowshoeing 15 years ago, and to this day I still can't believe I bought a pair of plastic snowshoes. I have owned my MSRs now for three years and they rock. I have taken them up mountains in Vermont and New Hampshire. Great traction, easy to put on, binding fits my Sorrels, Day hikers, and Salomon SM Mountaineering Boots. Also, how can you complain about a shoe that you can add length to float? I bought the tail extensions before a winter hike last year and had great float with a heavy pack.
