Gel Batteries

I’m looking for a source of Sonnenschein batteries in the US, but haven’t been able to find one.
It seems that in the US, the widely available batteries are Renogy, but I know nothing about them.
I have a box constraint of 10” max depth, and even that is pushing it a little, 9.75” would be better.
The Renogy 200 amp 12V Gel would work nicely size constraint wise, but I don’t know if they are a good battery or not.

Anyone have any experience with them? Or know of another good battery, or ideally how I could get the Sonnenschein brand?
