Default Self-limiting washer hoses

At HD the other day I picked up two stainless braided washer hoses labelled

water supply off when then flow of water exceed the design rate.

Has anyone used these and/or any like this? �Pros? �Cons?

Does it restrict the flow into the machine enough to make the wash cycle
longer as the fill time increases? �I found their website:

but I'd rather hear from actual users . . .

waste of money, a partial leak will still flood your home. plus people
have complained about longer cycle time

if your concerned get a auto solenoid valve and forget about it....
