I grew up with $20 walmart blenders, and hated anything that required a blender.
Recently bought a ninja and there is no going back. I’ll never use a crappy blender again.
Anything else like that?

I always just use a spoon (or sometimes two, in the case of portioning cookies) without issue. I never saw the appeal of these. Then again, there are probably people who eat more ice cream and make more cookies than I do.
Definitely agree on the rest. For measuring cups, also pay close attention to how the handle is connected to the body; I’ve had some that look like a single tack weld was done and they break off in now time.
That’s the point, if they are super cheap grocery store quality, regular spoons will do the job better, at least for cookie dough. I’ve bent spoons using them to scoop ice cream.
When I talk about the expensive version of a cookie dough scoop, it’s also still really cheap. Just checking prices online, I can get the restaurant supply store cheapest imported one for $5 (the brand is Choice). The made in America one that I have (Vollrath) goes for $12, and it seems like the exact same design.
For dedicated solid aluminum ice cream scoops with defrosting liquid filled handles, the cheap one is $3.50, and the fancy one I have was probably a whole $10.
The ones you’ll see for sale at a grocery store end up being roughly the same price, but way crappier.
