I was browsing Craig's list and came across that stove and it sure looks like it has DS Machine ancestry, not exactly, but it sure has a resemblance to my DS Machine New Style Champion right down to the steel mesh grill except the grill is on the front of the Rite-Burn as it is a side loader. Wonder if DS Machine produced stoves for other retailers?
Forgot to mention the seller states the stove has water heating capability. A couple sellers pics of it.
Rite-Burn Wood/Coal Stove???

You'll find some good posts about the rite burn (riteway) if you search. Several stove makers have similarities. are you sure its not called a riteway?

D S made the Rite Burn... the Amish loved the function ability of the original 1970's-early 80's Riteway 37 and copied it at DS and Hitzer, both.
As was mentioned above, a search here will uncover more details.

I liked the looks of the Rite Burn. Especially with warming shelf. Only thing I didn't like was no glass. I like to see the fire at a glance. I don't know if anyone other than D.S. ever had circulator tubes. Does the stove in your picture have circulator tubes? I can't see from the picture. What I can see, it looks like a D.S.. I have seen home made stoves with circulator tubes.
