30 Summer Products To Stay Cool And Keep AC Bills Low
A set of blackout curtains that'll block out between 85% to 99% of light so your bedroom feels like the coziest cave when you want to hide away from the world (and, you know, sleep in for once). They also have an insulating effect to help keep your room cooler in the summer! A programmable AC booster fan designed to quietly maximize airflow coming from your central HVAC system if you experience uneven cooling throughout your home. It's easily mounted onto floor or wall registers and will keep indoor temps more comfortable and balanced, lowering your energy bill as well! A soundproofing strip that can prevent cold air from escaping under your door, saving you $$$ on summer AC bills! Another big benefit: It'll help muffle the distracting sounds of car horns or your neighbor's loud music while working from home. And a three-layer door stopper you can install (and by "install," we mean peel and stick!) underneath your door if there's a pesky gap letting out your cold air (or letting *in* those creepy crawlies trying to escape the heat outside). Or a customizable option that can be cut to size and slid under your door to instantly plug any gaps. An oscillating tower fan because trying to sleep in hot, stale air is simply ✨ the worst ✨. This bladeless fan cools your room quietly and efficiently, with six speed options and a remote, so you don't even have to leave your bed to adjust. It's perfect if you plan on basically hibernating until fall. Or an even cheaper three-speed fan to help circulate the air in a small room, which may be all you need to sleep better and stay cool in the summer! The head can be tilted to angle the airflow, and the small size makes it easy to move around as needed. I've used this in pretty much every room of my apartment! Or a sleek brushed copper option that'll look so cool in your workspace while also keeping YOU cool. It's USB-powered and the head tilts 100 degrees! A set of two cooling pillows if sleeping on the "cool side" is something you like to do — especially in the summer. No more flipping your pillow over constantly — reviewers say these keep you cool all night long, and they're filled with a plush gel fiber that provides just the right amount of support. If you've ever wished you could bring those fancy hotel pillows home with you can. And to pair with them (or your current pillows), a set of two cooling pillowcases made with Japanese cooling fibers designed to absorb body heat away from you as you sleep. Or a geniusly designed cervical pillow that comes with an Arc-Chill cooling pillowcase and is made of 98% breathable memory foam, so it won't feel as suffocatingly hot as most regular pillows. It's also way more ergonomic, cradling your head while maintaining the natural curve of your neck and aligning your spine — because sleep is supposed to be restful, not a painful ordeal. A pillow top cooling mattress topper designed with breathable microfiber and a down alternative filling that amplifies airflow and heat dissipation, with an *extra* fluffy topper that'll make your bed feel even comfier. It also has a deep pocket that'll fit around most mattresses and won't slide around all night! And!! A set of hotel-worthy cooling bedsheets you *won't* wake up hot and sweaty in. Silky soft and breathable, these popular sheets feel ~expensive~ but aren't, with over 270,000 (!) 5-star ratings backing up their incredible value. A heavy-duty roll of transparent weather sealing tape because that gapping around your window AC unit is likely letting out some of the precious cold air it's working so hard to put into your home.

A set of claw clips to keep your sweaty hair off your sweaty neck, because you're hot enough as it is without your long mane making things worse.

It has three speed settings and lasts for up to six hours on one charge! Or a versatile rechargeable handheld fan — it may be small, but it delivers a mighty powerful wind, according to reviewers. When you're *not* fanning yourself, it folds up by the handle for each storage and can prop itself up too, converting into a handy desk or nightstand fan. A refreshing ice roller to help you cool off quickly after a long, hot day outside, especially when your home is uncomfortably ~warm~.

A reusable XL gel ice pack you can stash in the freezer and then take with you to the couch or bed for some full-body cooling while you relax. It's flexible, bending to the contours of your body for all-over relief — it's especially great for muscle pains, too! And a double-sided cooling gel eye mask that'll help you drift off into blissful sleep, even when you're trying not to blast the AC. The plush side works as a gentle cool compress, and you can flip it over to the transparent side for a stronger cooling effect. Reviewers swear it's also great if you deal with eye allergies, puffiness, and headaches.

'Relieved my neck pain': Shoppers 60+ love this cervical pillow — it's $36 for a limited time
In a perfect world, settling into bed, dozing off and slumbering for hours would be a simple, consistent nightly ritual. But, as anyone who suffers from neck pain knows, this is easier said than done. After all, maintaining proper alignment is, well, a little hard to do while you're asleep, and waking up at 3 a.m. with an achy neck is a surefire way to not get your full eight hours in. That's why special headrests like the top-selling Cozyplayer Cooling Cervical Pillow exist. It was designed to support your noggin while keeping your neck's natural curve intact — and the fact that it's currently on sale at Amazon makes it anything but a snoozefest. While this isn't the absolute lowest the pillow has hit, you can't put a price on getting a good night's sleep. That said, we'll take nearly 40% off! Similar pillows can set you back $50 or more, plus this one has thousands of fans to back it up. What sets the Cozyplayer Cooling Cervical Pillow apart from your standard sleep cushion? For starters, its contoured design features a concave space to place your head, and it's ever so slightly tilted — 15 degrees — to keep your neck in position and aligned with your spine. This helps alleviate pressure, which in turn can combat pain and stiffness. According to Mather Hospital's David J. BenEliyahu, DC, "If you suffer with neck pain, especially after you wake up in the morning, you should consider using a special cervical or neck pillow. Sleeping with a cervical pillow can improve your neck posture, thus supporting tight muscles in your neck and shoulders. It also reduces the mechanical stress on the neck joints by keeping your neck in proper alignment." What should you look for in a pillow? Dr. BenEliyahu says, "The pillow must be flexible and be able to accommodate your head and support your neck. Looking from the side, your neck should be in alignment with your spine and parallel to the mattress. If you sleep on your back, you want your pillow to have enough give to let your head sink down and then support the neck." With that in mind, you can adjust the height of the Cozyplayer pillow by using or removing the memory foam insert at its base. Because its core is made up of 98% memory foam, it strikes just the right balance between comfortable and supportive — and if you sleep hot? You'll appreciate its Q-Max 0.4 Arc-Chill cooling pillowcase, which makes the pillow more breathable. More than 3,800 snoozers felt this pillow was worthy of a five-star rating. "I am 69 years old and suffer from both cervical and lumbar osteoarthritis," shared one shopper. "To complicate life a bit more, I have never been able to sleep on my back or even in just one position. Most mornings, I would wake sore and stiff. Since receiving [this] pillow, my old pillow has been re-tasked with elevating my knees, and sleeping on my back is no longer an issue; in fact, the only things that disturb my sleep are my cats and my dog." "I've been using this pillow for over six months now, and my neck and shoulder pain is gone," wrote another. "I used to wake up with a stiff neck and [a] burning feeling that extended from my neck to my shoulder in the trapezius muscle. I'm quite happy with this pillow. Not only has it relieved my neck pain, it's very comfortable in most sleeping positions. I tend to move around a lot at night." "Best pillow for neck support ever!" exclaimed a third. "I have spent so much money trying to find a pillow to help me sleep better. I suffer from arthritis and RA. I have constant neck and shoulder pain. Sleeping was horrible. This pillow has been a life changer. And help keeps my neck secure." "I have noticed an improvement in my neck pain since using this pillow. I'm also a hot sleeper and it's definitely helped with that too," began one reviewer. "If I had a negative, it would be that your neck has to be in the center; if you are somewhat off-center there is some discomfort." "I've been using this for a couple of nights, and I definitely can say that I haven't experienced any neck pain and my sweating seems to have lessened," wrote a final fan. "My only complaint is that the pillow feels too low and flat for me. I actually place it on top of another pillow for more height, but I know that the manufacturer offers an extra foam insert, so I may reach out to them." (This is correct, you can contact the brand if it feels too low.) And for the rest of your body... If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.) The reviews quoted above reflect the most recent versions at the time of publication.
