A cassette loading apparatus includes a frame having a U-shaped cross section and having opposed side walls which are formed with guiding slots therein. A cassette holder is movably mounted to the frame through guiding pins which project outwardly from side walls of the cassette holder and which extend into the guiding slots. The cassette holder thus moves between a first position and a second position while holding a cassette therein. The guiding slots are formed such that the guiding pins are guided into the guiding slots when the cassette holder is assembled into the frame. At least one of the side walls of the frame has a bent portion at an free edge thereof. The bent portion is bent outwardly from the side wall and spans the entire length of the side wall of the frame. The guiding slots in the side walls of the frame extend into portions intermediate of the bent portions, whereby the guiding pins are guided into the guiding slots when the cassette holder is assembled into the frame.
