Luckily, pillows, sheets, and other bedding accessories are on sale to help alleviate some of the heat. The Coop Cool+ Pillow keeps you cool with its gel-infused foam, offers two sides for different feels, and adjusts to your liking. The innovative Purple Harmony incorporates a honeycomb-patterned Grid (the same material as in its mattresses) that surrounds a supportive inner core of hypoallergenic ventilated latex for an extremely comfortable and supportive pillow that sleeps cool. The Rest Evercool comforter is one of the coolest and most versatile options we tested, offering exceptional breathability and a silky-smooth feel in various colors and sizes, ensuring a sweat-free and comfortable night's sleep. The Baloo Weighted Comforter is cool and comfortable. It's OKEO-TEX certified, carbon neutral, and backed by a lifetime warranty. The silky soft Sijo Airyweight Eucalyptus sheets are made of Tencel Lyocell and excel in keeping you cool and dry, making them one of the best options for hot sleepers.

The Midea U Inverter Window Air Conditioner features a unique design that allows you to open the window when it's installed. While it was recently recalled, the units available for purchase have been repaired, and it remains one of our top AC picks. If aesthetics are important to you, Windmill makes one of the most attractive and easy-to-install ACs on the market. This 10,000 Btu unit should comfortably cool up to 450 square feet and is WiFi enabled so you can control it from anywhere. The Whynter ARC-14S Dual Hose Portable Air Conditioner may be big and not as portable as other units, but it did the best job of cooling our 550-square-foot test room. The Midea Duo Smart Inverter Portable Air Conditioner has a feature-rich app that pairs with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant for voice control, and it does an outstanding job of cooling while operating quietly. The EcoFlow Wave 3 Portable Air Conditioner is an impressive heating and cooling device for camping, RVs, and power outages. Its excellent performance and variety of charging methods make it worth the high price point. The variation in speed, five-year warranty, and convenient size make the Vornado 660 the best fan for most spaces. It is relatively quiet, too. The Dreo Air Purifier Tower Fan is a 2-in-1 design that quietly cools and purifies. It pairs with an app to provide historical air quality and temperature data. Several of our editors swear by this mini fan for the summer. In addition to a fan with two speeds, it's also a portable battery charger and a flashlight. Dressing in the wrong fabrics can get suffocating fast during the summer. These are some closet essentials that we've tested and loved for cooling us down. This hat can help keep you cool when temperatures are hot. Just get it wet and it will cool you down immediately. Mission cooling hats are incredibly effective at regulating body temperature when outside on hot days. They keep wearers cool and comfortable; we recommend them to anyone who spends a good bit of time outside. The short-sleeve nightgown has a soft, stretchy, and oversized fit, providing plenty of coverage and breathing room while you snooze. One caveat: While it's not advertised, the dress does have a built-in shelf bra, which some wearers may not love. If you're hot, they're hot too. Don't forget to account for your furry friend this summer; right now you can save big on cooling mats and smart fountains just for them. The EveryYay mat provides cooling, cushioned support and is specifically for crates. It comes in a variety of sizes and a washable cover. This water-filled mat can be used in shaded outdoor areas without losing its refreshing heat-wicking abilities. It has a durable, non-skid finish that will hold up to lots of use. This budget-friendly fountain offers two drinking options, whisper-quiet operation, and a simple design for easy cleaning. It wins our top spot for cat drinking fountains because it balances affordability perfectly with a cat-friendly form factor. The best products for your lifestyle depend on when you run the hottest. For many shoppers, nighttime is the hardest, with sheets and blankets turning up the heat. If that includes you, cooling accessories like pillows, mattress toppers, and sheets can make a big difference in your sleep your room gets hot during the day, a new air conditioner or fan might be the change you need. Even if you don't have a window, you can opt for a portable air conditioner or one of our fan picks to bring the temperature for more discounts today?

The machine is smart, efficient, versatile (it can also dehumidify and heat) and surprisingly quiet, which makes it a great option for areas like bedrooms and a home office. It takes up a bit more floor space than some of our other picks and requires a smartphone app to get the most use out of its controls. MOST POPULAR This Whynter model uses a dual-hose system that pulls in external air and pushes warm air outside to more quickly cool down your space. It has enough power to handle medium-sized rooms but doesn't take up as much floor space as designs with similar specs. This model dropped to $416 last Prime Day, but this is the best price we've seen in 2025 so far. Designed for cooling spaces up to 300 square feet, this three-in-one design can be used to cool, dry or act as a fan. Its temperature ranges between 60 and 86 degrees Fahrenheit, and it comes with an exhaust hose and window sealing kit. Handily, you can connect to the machine through your smart phone to control the temperature levels and timing of your machine. This is the first discount for this model that we've seen on Amazon, though the machine's price history is limited to a few months. Shinco makes one of our favorite dehumidifiers too, so we know it's a reliable brand in the appliance category. You can activate this smart Midea model with voice control or your smartwatch via Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. The system is designed to cool spaces up to 450 square feet and can also be used as a fan or dehumidifier—it even provides heat, making it a truly versatile machine. The set comes with an exhaust hose and window kit, with no extra tools required. This discount matches the lowest price that this model has dropped to on Amazon. If you're looking for a simple, streamlined cooling solution, we recommend the SereneLife SPLAC10. The lightweight model is easy to set up and works quickly to cool your space. It doesn't have any extra smart features and it's most effective in smaller rooms (around 270 square feet). The model briefly dropped below $300 in April, but this discount is otherwise the best price we've seen since February. This compact model is very affordable and effective for small spaces; it can quickly cool rooms of up to 150 feet. Its major cons are that it's not Energy Star certified and is a good bit louder than our other window unit picks. That said, if you're looking for something simple and don't want to spend over $200, this is a great option that offers seven temperature settings. This discount matches the best price we've seen for the model—though its available price history is limited. This sleek window unit from Midea is priced at an all-time low, making it a great deal. The design not only blocks noise, but allows you to still open your window—rare for a window air conditioner. It's WiFi enabled and you can use voice control to operate it, too. This window unit is priced at an all-time low on Amazon, and you can save $62 on it. It can cool rooms up to 350 square feet, and is designed to be extra quiet. Features like multiple modes and wireless control will help make it easy to use all summer long. This is the lowest price we've seen on this Midea portable air conditioner, making it a great deal if you need a portable AC that doesn't attach to a window. It can cool spaces up to 150 square feet and offers three modes: cooling, a fan mode and a dehumidifier mode. You can easily control it with a remote, too.
