Does a boxspring come in 2 or 3 inch thickness
Yes, box springs are recommended with a traditional mattress. The box springs are constructed to support the mattress and to lengthen its life.
Depends on the number of springs and thickness of the mattress. And whether you're using a foundation or box springs. Mine is a Beautyrest and weighs in at about 85 pounds for the mattress and I'm guessing about 40 pounds for the box springs. I have picked up foundations that weigh less than 30 pounds, but I wouldn't want to own them. I was told that some of the non-flippable queen mattresses can weigh in the hundred pound range or better. I can see why they're non-flippable.

of course, then why is it called a SPRING box? Correct answer: It is very rare to find springs in "box springs" these days. Most are what's called "semi-flex", meaning that they have a little flex but overall rather rigid. Summary: Most "box springs" are constructed using a combination of wood and a steel grid system.
Standard "high profile" box springs are 9 inches (23 cm) in height, whereas "low profile" box springs are between 5 inches (13 cm) and 6 inches (15 cm)
