Good-sized

Good-sized describes something that is of a considerable size; large or fairly large, but not necessarily enormous. It implies a size that is appropriate, convenient, and often satisfactory for a specific purpose or context. The term doesn't specify exact measurements but rather suggests a size that is comfortably adequate or substantial. It avoids suggesting a tiny or massive scale and is typically used where the dimension is important or has practical implications such as for homes, portions, groups of people, and even a particular business. A 'good-sized' object is often not difficult to deal with, and meets needs adequately.
