Which tracked suction side cleaners don't use the twist lock hoses?

[mrhelo]

I'm trying to decide between the Zodiac MX8-elite, Polaris Maxx, and I think there is maybe one more almost identical cleaner? I remember reading somewhere that one of those tracked suction cleaner models doesn't require the twist lock hoses, while the others do. I have a bunch of new push together suction hoses and I want to find something that is compatible.

I'm also hoping to buy whichever one is easiest to get spare parts for and doesn't require going to the chain pool store everyone hates on.

Go electric robot. Pressure/suction cleaners are all but obsolete.

Hayward TracVac uses those hoses.
