Standard size is 4"long, 2.75" wide, 3/4" thick.
Larger size is 8" long, 2.75" wide, 3/4" thick.

I loved the way this product cleaned my glass stove top. I sprinkled it on the stove that I had already spritzed water on. I spread it around and then I'd let it sit and come back every few minutes to do some extra scrubbing with a copper mesh scrubber. My stovetop doesn't look immaculate or brand spanking new but it looks SO much better. Photo attached is the after photo (I forgot to take a before). My favorite part about this cleaner is how amazing it smells and how I didn't feel like I had to wear gloves because it's basically vegetable soap. I can't wait to try it on my glass shower door!
