Other posters have changed their still-working ones at 5 years, 10 years, 12 years etc. etc. so how do you decide when to replace a perfectly-working one? Seems like guesswork to me.

Do whatever you feel comfortable with.
It still looks and works well. Hard to make myself replace it for one that probably won't last but 5 years.
