Mine are over 20 years old I have about 4 left to replace in my house. I have observed the nylon hose start oozing sticky yellow looking goo I replace them, seems the cold side goes first? IMO that sign they are deteriorating? So far none have leaks.

I replace mine with shark bite (SB) or Quick fitting brand (same design SB) they can easily be removed don’t have mess with glue or corroded copper. Plumbers use SB or quick fitting brands also. How do I know MS plumbing installed them on my kitchen sink and Lowe’s contractor did on my hot water tank installation.

You can do search for Accor/flowtite push pull valves or push pull valves this subject has come up many times.
