Anyone else find that these pools have VERY weak filters!!! Loved using our pool but the poor filtration system makes ME not like it. I find that I overcompensate with chlorine which I don't want to do but feel I have to.

We have a metal frame one like that and we bought a salt water system for it. It naturally chlorinates the water. We also use a skimmer with our filter.

Yeah, it is expensive. It cost $200 but we no longer have to use chemicals. We just add water softener salt to the pool (the system tells us when and how much to add) and it runs through the system to naturally chlorinate the pool. We bought it from Intex.
