I wont suggest brand names because everyone has an opinion there. But some technical details:
Go for one with a speed of 15 ips, usually this will mean a machine that can take 10.5 inch reels too.
Go for half-track, rather than quarter track.
All the serious hi-fi machines have 3 heads, so don't settle for a 2 head machine at all (shared record/replay head)
