Is tenant responsible for replacing appliances?

I'm still relatively new to being a landlord, so I'm looking for what is customary language in tenant leases.

I've recently purchased a property with a tenant and am developing a new lease for that tenant.  I have most of it worked out and she has reviewed it, but questioned the section that stated the tenant was responsible for the costs of repair and replacement of all appliances.

Is this typical to have the tenant pay for replacement of appliances that naturally burn out?  Does anyone have any language they actually use for this in their leases?
