An 80 lbs steel block would be about 6 9/16 inches per side. This picture is typical false advertising.

They never said it was a solid block. Plus, this gives them room to make it smaller with shrinkflation.

The purpose is to take up counter space so instead of shrinking it they'll make it bigger but more hollow.

Those are the dimensions of the block, making it accurate. The kitchen in the background is a miniature scale model.
