Thanks for posting -- found the video here:
I notice the Anthramax has a heat shield on the back, and solid shields over the sides rather than screens, with air openings at bottom and top. It seems like both the new side and back design would substantially increase convection by enclosing and channeling the air, compared to the DS 1500. He says the Anthramax looks better than the 1500, but I disagree, I've grown to appreciate the looks of my 1300 though my wife still make a face when she contemplates it.

FIRST thing I did was take them off and spray them flat black.jremington wrote:It looks even better without the Fisher looking spinners on the ash door.
I had the factory paint the side grilles black before shipping the stove to me.
