I thought the White House provided beds.
The Obama’s are redecorating the family living quarters in the WH.

I would think in the family quarters they would send their own things..but didn’t they also have a story about new furniture for the kids and the kids get to decorate the rooms as they like? I don’t think them getting their own things for the private quarters, as long as they pay for it, is a big deal.
