Is One Flat Pedal Really Any Better Than Another?

The pedals that came with my bike (Raleigh Hybrid) are these SPD (?) Pedals. The seller referred to them as mountain bike pedals. One side is for clipless and theoretically the other side is flat. Problem is, about half the time, the pedals are wrong side up and I have to fool with them to flip them with my foot. That's problematic in the city with traffic, say, at a light.

I was going to buy the same Walmart cheapies that I bought before but I got a couple unsolicited negative comments on here (can ya believe it?) about them. I don't care about the negativity, but I was wondering if, other than aesthetics and negligible weight differences, does it really matter whether I get $12 Walmarts or $40 Rock Bros flat pedals?
