Peddles advise

[Wayners]

I decided to buy new peddles from Halfords a few weeks ago and tried to fit them at weekend but one was seized up.
I took back to Halfords right on closing and swapped (cost £1.60) don't ask! Lads couldn't swap only refund and I had to pay ticket price Vs original online discount price.. Whatever. Just give me the peddles I thought.

Anyway. One has started to seize up while riding today and making a grinding noise. I can't see how to crack open to grease up. End cap is pressed on alloy by looks of it.
Can't be bothered to take back so need a new set. Any recommendations? Might go to my local bike shop as I bet the guy would fit them for me while I wait.
Just not sure how much I should spend or what to look for? Just don't want £14 junk again. Guess I need to spend a bit more although some nice ones on Amazon for £15 but I'm unsure?
Commuting on MTB so don't want spikes.

New or secondhand proper Shimano from eBay. Probably less than £20, great build quality, last forever.

Search for 'shimano flat pedal' and things like this come up, and when you feel the silky smooth bearings you know you are dealing with quality.

Plenty of peddles on Ebay for under £20. If you don't like spikes...and I don't when they bite! just file them rounded at the points then you still have a bit of grip when it's wet.
