New Lady in Bob’s Discount Furniture commercials

Who’s the New Lady in Bob’s Discount Furniture commercials? The other women was hyper and real excited to sell sell sell. She seemed like Bob’s better half. Now this one seems laid back and confident. Let’s see if we can get someone at Bob’s Discount Furniture to comment for us.

    I hated the other lady. “It’s a no brainer!” and all the other things she used to say got on my very last nerve. She wasn’t hyper more than she was … grating.

    I think she was pregnant in the last commercial I saw her in. Perhaps she’s on maternity leave? I haven’t seen the new woman. Have you called the toll free number on the screen to ask them?

    I’ve never seen this new lady but it seems like a breath of fresh air if you ask me. I think the other lady used her hands way more than anyone should when talking. Every sylable was punctuated by her stupid hands flapping around! Boo! You stink!

    “It’s a no brainer!”
    Yeaaa you’re right. I remember that commercial and its very annoying been what a great way to get people talking and remembering your ad.

    Can anyone confirm if the “No Brainer” was actually Bob’s missus?

    • Tom W 11 August 2010 at 12:42 am Permalink

      No she works in the office in marketing and sales

    I found an article on line that said, “For all those wondering the identity of Bob’s television companion, she’s Cathy Poulin, a first-grade teacher from Killingly. ‘We were looking to freshen up the ads,’ [Bob] Kaufman says. ‘It was getting repetitious.’”

    Thank you. Can you share the link also?

    Strange when I do a search on google for Bob’s Discount Furniture, my site comes up first.

  8. Ken 5 September 2005 at 9:54 pm Permalink

    Anyone catch any of the new commercials?

  9. Mike 15 September 2005 at 10:05 pm Permalink

    I’m torn between finding Cathy “Annoying Blonde” Poulin to be a pain and thinking she’s kind of cute and would like to see a more detailed picture of her. I’ve never been to Bob’s but it makes me wonder how “discount ” the stuff can be considering they run those commercials day and night. Someone’s paying for that.

  10. golfwidow again 16 September 2005 at 7:10 am Permalink

    I bought my dining room set from them. It’s solid oak, it wasn’t inexpensive, but the service was great and they gave me a breakdown of all the costs and fees, so while I paid about the same as I would have elsewhere, at least I knew which bits of my money were going where.

    I can’t imagine why they thought a schoolteacher was needed to freshen up their image unless she volunteered for the job (and what qualifies a schoolteacher??) or she’s related to him or dating him, but whatever.

  11. David 16 September 2005 at 1:53 pm Permalink

    Wow, that’s insane! I always thought that annoying wench was his wife and felt bad for Bob – but now you’re saying she’s not even related to him!? What IS she doing in the ads then?!??!?

  12. Ken 17 September 2005 at 11:47 pm Permalink

    I actually saw her in the Nashua NH store last weekend. Seemed like a nice women and kinda Hot too.

  13. gail 24 September 2005 at 8:19 pm Permalink

    I thought also it was Bob’s wife, I did not know they got another woman, she looks almost like the other one, don’t you think?

    She also using her hands.

  14. Mick 27 September 2005 at 6:12 pm Permalink

    the lady in the Bobs tv ad’s in not his wife at all. She used to work for Cox Communications in the 90′s but left to teach school. Cathy was engaged to a guy in Vernon CT who runs a carpet/flooring store. Their engagement was published in the Journal Inquirer. Plus I have seen her a few times in person.

    She is rather quiet I think. Just her Tv persona is annoying .

  15. Ken 28 September 2005 at 5:28 pm Permalink

    Quiet maybe but she gets the point across and everyone talks about her and that gets people talking about Bob’s Funiture Store.

    Good viral marketing.

  16. charlie 4 December 2005 at 12:30 am Permalink

    I don’t find her annoying at all. I think she’s a real pro. She accents all the right words and she’doesn’t just sit there. She’s giving affirmative gestures.
    I think she adds just the right degree of professionalism without being ‘slick.’
    The ad without her would put you to sleep.

  17. Dylan 10 December 2005 at 2:13 pm Permalink

    Sitting here at the airport waiting for my flight trying to think of things to google…I never knew it was two different women…I wondered what happened after the “I am pregnant” commercial…thought it was weird that they never had a baby commercial later on…guess that’s why…I agree with Ken, she may be a tad annoying but I still watch because (as a typical guy) I think shes pretty hot, in a school teacher sort of way!

  18. Ken Savage 10 December 2005 at 4:39 pm Permalink

    You should see the Bob’s discount furniture commercials in Spanish now. It’s the Bob’s discount furniture Lady and some other spanish women talking the same commercial but all in Espanol. FUNNY and memorable.

  19. Jennifer 12 December 2005 at 11:00 am Permalink

    So roughly when was this changeover?
    Was the difference the prego one versus the new one?

    i dont care who it is, she is one hot broad, id buy furniture from her anyday…to pound on

  21. Ken Savage 14 February 2006 at 2:42 pm Permalink

    Has anyone seen the recent ads of her laying on the bed with the Teddy Bear? Cute!

  22. Ken Savage 2 March 2006 at 6:54 pm Permalink

    Ohhh that Bob’s Teddy Bear mattress looks real comfy.

    I was wondering, does anyone have any of those commericals posted online? or ever seen them on any sites? I really want to post one of my website, they crack me up. I DOUBT IT, I DOUBLE DARE YOU. Maybe Bob is a little hearing impaired and we should be nicer to him. lol

  24. Ken Savage 5 April 2006 at 11:31 am Permalink

    We bought couches at Bob’s a few months ago and they were cheaper than other stores and great quality. Thanks Bob.

    You gotta admit though the commericials are memorable.
    Just like the Ernie Boch Sr. car commercials when Chico the Llama was in them.

    Speaking of his female companion, who he insists is nothing more than “an old friend,” Kaufman revealed his commercials are not arbitrarily thrown together.

    “Research shows that female customers are the dominant decision makers in the home furnishing business, so she can say things to females that I cannot say,” he said. “It’s to attract female customers more than male.”

    He also added that pairing himself up with a spokeswoman for his company ensures that should anything happen to him, there is another familiar persona to carry on the Bob’s Discount Furniture tradition.

    Cathy …not too shabby…even better in real life….ex-school teacher eh?

    looks kinda hot on some of the furniture….
    cute in boots with the teddie bears,concealed sofas….Zoiks!
    I just might by me a recliner….does she come as a set matching the sofa…?

  33. Kristen 18 February 2007 at 8:08 pm Permalink

    Where has Bob been? He was always in the commercials with the annoying women and lately he is gone!!! I mean he was ultra annoying but Im still curious as to where he went.

  34. manny 8 July 2007 at 5:52 pm Permalink

    Her sexy feet always get me excited

  35. Bill 4 October 2007 at 6:49 pm Permalink

    Actually I think it has been the same girl “Cathy” all along on the commercials. I don’t think there was a different girl. I don’t think she was pregnant either. I think what has happened is that her role on the commercials has evolved into a more prominent spot. She was previously more in the background. Personally I like her better in the new role, she is more believable and not nearly as annoying.

  36. SeanX 22 November 2007 at 12:53 am Permalink

    She’s hot…in a quirky sort of way….a teacher that is hot….the boots are a nice touch…!

    some leather never hurts…hopefully she comes with the furniture…

  37. Patty 25 November 2007 at 12:41 am Permalink

    Hasn’t anyone noticed that this woman is just wayyyyy too thin? She looks like she has an eating disorder. If the camera adds 10 pounds, this woman is in trouble.

  38. Annoyed! 25 December 2007 at 3:32 am Permalink

    If anyone says this furniture is good you are nutts. I am sitting in my Cat Napper sectional from Bob’s as I am writing this and sitting on a freaking angle! The cushions sagged within 3 weeks and my back is killing me! So if you are saying “Oh Bob’s furniture is so good hehehehehe”, you’re an idiot or you work for him. Bob’s you suck!!!! If it’s too good to be true it probably is.

    Happy Holiday’s and buy somewhere else. Pay a little more and you will be happy.

  39. Thom 19 August 2008 at 12:42 am Permalink

    cute….laid back…looks good in the chairs/ on the sofas… luv to see her in / on leather…. wearing not much more than some nice knee high leather boots…maybe a nice suit that is matching /complimenting of her boots/the furniture…
    def in boots tho…! give Cathy a good run fo duh money

  45. Matty B 29 December 2008 at 7:43 pm Permalink

    Where the heck has Bob been?

    I think those 2 broads abducted him

  46. Bill 29 December 2008 at 9:40 pm Permalink

    In my opinion the less Bob the better. Let Cathy and the new “buyer” lady do the commercials. Bob detracts. I stopped in one of the BOBS stores and I was actually impressed. Much better quality than I anticipated and fair pricing.

  47. Cindy 4 January 2009 at 12:35 pm Permalink

    Love all these comments…and thanks for the pics. I’d like to know what happened to Bob. He was on constantly, now it’s two women, or he’s in claymation or cartoon form. Where the heck is he? I was out in front of a store yesterday, and it crossed my mind to go in and ask someone, but my daughter was in a hurry to get home, and we had a bit of a drive. Is he sick? Did he die? Did someone buy Bob’s Furniture? So Ken my search has led me here to you. Let’s get to the bottom of this :-)

    hey guys i know the blonde lady she used to be my teacher.

    I guarantee all of the new people are related to the actual owners of Bob’s….they can’t help themselves….they must be in the spotlight.

    Capt’ns log star date,MAY 6-2009:

    THE FURNITURE IS CRAP…THE SALES STAFF ARE SEMI-COLD.

    and of the two women I’ve encountered….neither are really appealing tome at this point.

    Scotty, Beam me up…! No sign of intelligent life nor scantily clad women down here.

  52. Aaron 2 June 2009 at 9:42 am Permalink

    First off NAES, you are an idiot, I furnished my entire house with Bob’s. Great proces, great quality, nice sales staff. And if your looking for scantily clad dressed women in a furniture store, you are a bigger idiot than I though you were. Oh, and people its a frigging commercial, shut up and quit whinning, Youre all a bunch of morons!

  53. Bill 2 June 2009 at 7:44 pm Permalink

    Aaron seems to have some “issues”. Lighten up. These postings are all in good fun. NAES is certainly entitled to his/her opinion. You don’t have to agree with it.

  54. Naes 3 June 2009 at 11:33 am Permalink

    Thankyou Bill….( classy…!)

    Aaron, you obviously miss the point of this web page….it’s silly, whimsy….. an expressed opinion is a privi, a right & it cannot be shoved down peoples throats to undermine what they say & to get them to knuckle under opression from braggarts.

    I respect ALL people,their opinoins regardless of gender and or their
    profession & attire.

    FOR THE RECORD : T-H-O-U-G-H-T….

    Now, about those recliners….!
    who’s got the remote…where’s the cards…8 card poker…anyone? coofee, tea, beer? & the ladies are allowed to play….!
    LOSER BUYS THE PIZZA!

    Again, thankyou Bill!

  55. BRK 5 June 2009 at 7:51 pm Permalink

    I bought a dining set at bob’s, price was good. too good to be true. Within a year, I had the table repaired, and each of the 6 chairs are falling apart. Set was made in Vietnam…. go figure. Next time I definetely will spend more and buy USA. Yes there actually is furniture made right here in this country!

    Oh and Cathy looks hot, but the new woman has that boyish haircut…yuck

    • Bill 6 June 2009 at 5:23 pm Permalink

      BRK

      I agree the new buyer lady has a serious hair cut problem. Bring on more of Cathy and the boots.

      It is not where the furniture was made thats the issue it is the wood. More than likely the set you have is made out of Malaysian Para Wood which basically is a rubber tree. Good old Pine, Oak and Maple found in the good old USA do hold up better in the long run.

  56. Naes 9 June 2009 at 11:25 am Permalink

    I have just bought a new recliner….& a small sectional from Bobs….the stuching in the leather is giving out already…

    the recliner has no underside framing support…the recline mechanism is not alinged right…I called Bobs Cust.Svc line…they were no help- a no brainer there….! never again!

    The woman in the ads has a hair cut that reminds me of both the new “American Idol”–(no id didn ot vote for him- hate the show-get lives! ) Kate Gosselin from jon & kate + 8—-sheeeeesh! YUCK!

    [I avoId the show, saw all the tabloid trash & then threw up]

    Were’s Cathy( Kathy–?) when Bobs needs a good sale gimmick?

  57. Bill 10 June 2009 at 6:17 pm Permalink

    Cathy can continue with the hand gestures and the boots but needs to drop the “don’t you??”. But even the buyer lady with the haircut problem is a notch up from Bernie’s “bubble butt” daughter and her “don’t tell Bernie”.

    I have never watched an entire reality show in my life. Watching paint dry is more exciting.

  58. Paul 24 September 2009 at 4:13 am Permalink

    I think Cathy is great. She’s hot looking and has great legs. I’d love to meet her. She’s the best part of the ads.

  59. ME 28 September 2009 at 1:47 am Permalink

    I met cathy this past weekend shes actually a really nice lady very energetic and loves to give hugs lol she hugs everyone. shes a good friend of bobs and helps him out alot. shes helping him out now with his new scholarship program called high school heros that is for the red cross which is promoting blood drives in schools and offering schalorships to schools holding them which is a great program which will help save a lot of lives.. and shes pretty good looking tooo haha

  60. Naes 28 September 2009 at 2:37 pm Permalink

    Just fantasizing about Cathy Poulin and Mimi Amadon from the Walk fit commercials…both very hot. Hey Now

    • Bill 31 October 2009 at 6:03 pm Permalink

      I hope Mimi Amadon is not the buyer lady from the Bobs commercials Yuk. Cathy yes she is cute

  65. Steve 2 January 2010 at 3:28 pm Permalink

    According to Wikipedia, “Cathy Poulin, the company’s Director of Public Relations”
    Yes the other woman is at least 3 times the size of Cathy. I have also noticed that Cathy is back on the new commericals.

  66. SeanX 7 February 2010 at 1:26 pm Permalink

    the more recent ads ( MIXED OPINIONS ON THEM ) show our Lovely Cathy…in very profesh suits…& boots lookin hotter than ever-post pregnancy…Just bad positioning behind the products be for sale-showing….she’s gotten hotter & classier!

    I’d love to do coffee-cocktails-what ever- With HER!
