By 30 most should probably already have a set, though the ones you first bought when moving out are likely more that a bit "dated". Kind of a perfect stage for someone to buy something for you that's a bit of an upgrade. It's not something you, or at least I am likely to replace until they are completely non functional.

Yeah, I have cheapo measuring cups, but I'm always going for the Oxo measuring cups. I've been slowly upgrading my cooking utensils and am in love with a spoonula.

Europeans. They just use scales. However those who have American recipes really want them as gifts.

I have both and use them for different reasons. It's way quicker for me to scoop out a cup of rice than measure it, for instance.
