Default Degen DE11 vs Tecsun PL200, any opinions?

Ok, my PL200 is cheap and cheerful but has been a good pocket radio and
I've had no problems with it but unfortunately it has been dropped too
many times. SW is handy but it mainly gets used on MW.

I was thinking about getting another one but the Degen / Kaito looks
very similar. Does anyone have any experience with one of these? I
don't need stronger reception but the Tecsun is a bit clunky and
awkward, and has bad hiss on AM though earphones. I was considering the
DE1102 but I'd rather have a slightly more conventional radio at the
cost of a little performance, and it's a bit larger.

Many thanks everyone!
