Are FoamByMail's memory foam topper densities accurate?

I'm thinking of buying a 2" 4 lbs. density "blue" plush memory foam topper from FoamByMail. My question: How much should this weigh in a King size? Are their toppers usually the weight that they state?

@Sandman:

Thank you so much for your reply. In the meantime, Chris at FoamByMail has been graciously answering my questions about their toppers. He said the same thing as you did. All their memory foam toppers are 14 ILD or IFD. He said they feel very similar. The biggest difference is durability between the three densities. He suggested a 3 in h for the best performance if I'm a side sleeper. However, the 2" 3 lbs. Sealy I have seems to be working under the thick CuddleBed fiber mattress cover. It's sitting atop a 1.5 inch firm Omalon topper. The bed is 2 layers of 36 ILD Talalay latex over 1 inch high density poly foam and heavy springs. Since this topper was such a bargain, I might just stick with it and if I feel the need to, order a 4 lbs. density topper from FoamByMail later. Chris was very helpful and I felt like he was giving me the correct information. And, you, too! Thanks again!
