Our family has had both and personally I wouldn't mess with DE.

The real question is Bromine vs. Chlorine although bromine does better with indoor or covered pools

I didn't even know you could use bromine as a cleaning agent. I've been using chlorine tablets. My pool is outdoor, inground and no cover.

How easy is it to clean the filter? Is it really as easy as take it out and hose off? Is it possible to completely remove all the stuffs your cartridge collect? I heard you can rip the paper cartridge pretty easily with the nozzle of a garden hose if you are not careful? How much to the cartridges run?

A decent link explaining the process.
