Wow, I didn’t know they were still in business! Their handbell manufacturing was short- lived. Rather cool concept, but the never made more than 3 octaves.

Pretty much like any other American bell, although IMHO, not quite as good.  (Not trying to start a bell war, simply calling
it as I see it.)  The "robo-clapper" is nifty idea, but it's kinda top heavy.

The neighboring church to me has a 3 octave set of Maas Rowe handbells. Such a curious clapper and handle!
