Default replacing washing machine hoses

A neighbor woke up to an inch of water on their first floor from a burst
washing machine hose. Got me to worrying.

I replaced mine with braided steel hoses; even splurged and got the ones
that shut off in case of a leak.

I know the rubber ones are supposed to be replace every 5 years, or
something like that; do the steel ones every have to be routinely
replace? Nothing on the package about it.


How much did those hoses cost?

$22 for a pair of 6' at HD.
