You can buy a good ladle in a US retail store, you just have to pay $30+ for it: https://www.crateandbarrel.com/crate-and-barrel-stainless-st...

For something that should last forever, $30 isn’t too bad.

It’s basically impossible to get a quality product at a Target or Walmart type store.

Crate and Barrel is decidedly for the market segment of "more money than ability to discern quality and wants social status". The last time I went into one, they had $70 ice bucket tongs that looked amazing but had no teeth, which totally defeat the point of ice tongs.
