I can't remember who but someone wrote that most batteries are made from 3 manufacturers. And that basically any reputable name will be fine. The thread also gave a thumbsup to walmart and costco brand (kirkland??) batteries.

I'll note that a van at work has an interestate battery and I had to change it out within a year. It could just be coincidence but it's enough for me to never buy an interstate battery.

Varta, Exide, and the cheaper no-name batteries are junk. I can't tell you how many of those we replace.
