Cassette recommendations?

Any recommendations on cassette players?

Looking for something small, possibly portable, that sounds good and looks cool.

Not looking for a changer or a big deck, like a Nakamichi.

The Ninm Lab It's Real looks pretty cool, but I hear the mechanicals are trash

Appreciate insights!
 
If you haven’t already, check out the Fii0 CP13 portable player. AFAIK, almost all new players are building their models around the same basic interior parts that are below the quality of past players during cassette’s original run as a popular medium but people seem happy with the quality of the surrounding components of the CP13. I bought one and I use that as my main portable player. I had 3-4 working vintage 90s players but all but one has broken down and stopped working, so I gave up on having a good classic player and just use the CP13.
 
Yeah the Co13 seems the way to go for portable currently. Ain’t no good options for new decks for your hifi.
