A few recommendations:
1- Go to a store that has as many clarinets as you can possibly dream of
2- Check for intonation first and foremost.
3- Try this procedure so that you don't get too overwhelmed.
- Play a clarinet: this is the best clarinet you've tried so far.
- Play another clarinet, if it's worse, discard and don't go back!. If it's better than the previous clarinet. Discard the other one and don't go back!
- pick another clarinet and repeat the process.
You don't have to be so hard core about it, but I think it helps tremendously narrowing down what you actually like...
