Ron for Model Number WM2688HNMA Need Hot & cold water inlet Hoses. Should they be metal mesh or is rubber ok?

Even still, the manufacturers recommend that the hoses be changed ever 5 years. If this practice is followed, the cheaper hoses can be used since the hoses normally far outlast the 5 year mark.
