A set of blackout curtains
Promising review: “I bought these for keeping it cooler in the house in the summer as running the AC costs a lot of $$$ where I’m at…where even setting the thermostat to 72 we get a $700 electric bill. You can literally walk up to being within a foot of them and you can feel the heat, because it’s retaining it and you can’t feel it if you get more than a foot away. I ended buying these that are same style and color for my window in my living room. It keeps the room darker, which is nice for movie watching, and as of right now it’s 90 degrees outside and I’m in the house in light sweatpants; it literally is keeping it that cool in here (along with opening windows early morning then closing before it warms up. I looked on my electric company website and my projected bill is only $217, which they show being $150 less from this time last year! Loved the price on these as well, much better than I expected!” — Karen
A programmable AC booster fan
Promising review: “My home was generally too hot in the summer and a bit cooler than I liked in the winter. Now, with this product, the entire house is much more balanced — upstairs and downstairs. In the winter, after my HVAC system shuts off, the unit continues to run as long as the duct continues to put out heat. In the summer, the unit puts out cold air upstairs event though the HVAC system is off — making upstairs bedrooms very, very comfortable for an afternoon nap. Setup is not difficult. Best of all, my energy bill went down. I was concerned that it would go up since these units are plugged into a receptacle; but, the units appear to be 12 or 24 volt units (low amperage). Bottom line, an outstanding product that I feel is well worth the money I spent.” — Sharon
A soundproofing strip that can prevent cold air from escaping
And a three-layer door stopper
Or a customizable option that can be cut to size and slid under your door
An oscillating tower fan
Or an even cheaper three-speed fan
I have this fan in the smallest size and it’s enough to keep my bedroom comfortable on summer nights, but depending on your room size and environment, you may want to opt for one of the bigger options! This would also make a great desk fan if you work from home or in an office.
Or a sleek brushed copper option
Serta Arctic hybrid mattress
Promising review: “The Arctic Hybrid mattress is incredibly soft and comfortable while maintaining substantial support. It truly is the best of both worlds. First time sleeping on this mattress it was incredibly comfortable, no need for a breaking-in period. It does have a chemical smell when first unwrapped, but I let it sit for a day before sleeping on it and the smell was completely gone by the second night. The Arctic Hybrid has cooling foam that is absolutely wonderful. I usually struggle with memory foam mattresses since they make me so hot, but this one really works to keep cool. The memory foam combined with the internal support makes this Hybrid mattress the most comfortable sleep I have ever had. I highly recommend this mattress!” — AaronF
A set of two cooling pillows
And to pair with them a set of two cooling pillowcases made with Japanese cooling fibers designed to absorb body heat away from you as you sleep.
A pillow top cooling mattress topper
A set of hotel-worthy cooling bed sheets
An Alexa-compatible energy-efficient air conditioner
Promising review: “Saved me from SoCal heat and misery. I can’t sleep when the bedroom is over 68 degrees, but I can’t sleep with a typical noisy window air conditioner going either. We’ve been using this unit for a few months now and it has been my lifesaver — sleeping better than I have in years without burning feet and running sweat. It’s so quiet, performs great and is right on the money to the temp it’s set at, remote is wonderful (don’t have to get out of bed to change temperature settings). We have a small house and running it at 74 degrees all day and evening actually keeps the entire back of the house (bedroom, den, hallway, bathroom) cool without having to run other ACs. Turn it down to 68 degrees at bedtime and it cools the room to my sleeping temp very quickly. Very energy efficient…I was expecting electric bills over $200/mo, but running it 24/7 all through July was only $139. Extremely happy with this air conditioner.” — Rogelaine H.
A heavy-duty roll of transparent weather sealing tape
XFasten is a small business that launched in 2015 selling a wide array of adhesive products from home improvement accessories to craft supplies.
Promising review: “This is the first time I’ve used tape like this and it is perfect to seal our window AC. It keeps the hot air out and the cool air in. Plus, it’s easy to apply. I definitely recommend.” — J.R. Higuera
A set of claw clips
Promising review: “I will admit I bought these from seeing them on TikTok and I needed new clips for my thick hair. I am not disappointed and beyond glad I got them. The colors are gorgeous and they stay put without hurting my head. I’m very impressed.” — Jessica
Or a versatile rechargeable handheld fan
Promising review: “One of the best purchases I’ve ever made! Ideal product year round heat or just places with too much heat, no air. This would be very helpful for those with health issues/heat aversion. So lightweight and compact. Don’t need AC on for the entire house but want to read, work, watch TV, just BE, in cool comfort? The perfect product. Very quiet. Holds good charge. Recharges just like your phone, iPad, any e-device. Well-made and the price makes it ideal. Will never be without this genius portable fan!” — psl
A refreshing ice roller
Promising review: “I was skeptical about this product. I wasn’t sure how it was much different than rolling any other frozen thing on your body. I’m beyond pleasantly surprised. I’ve used it for sinus pain, migraines, swollen neck glands, under-eye circles/bags, inflamed acne, TMJ pain, etc. Not to mention, when I used it on my face, it leaves my skin feeling tight and wakes me up in the mornings. It also stays cold for forever but never sweats or leaves water behind. It’s like magic. I also bought one for my mom who suffers from nerve damage in her arms and legs. I think it’ll really help when she has bad pain days.” — Jessica McRee
And a facial cooling spray
Sweat-wicking pajamas for hot sleepers
And speaking of linen: A waffle-knit blanket
Promising review: “I am in LOVE with my blanket. It is the perfect texture, I can wrap up in it in the summer and not get too hot, and it’s so soft even after just one wash! Truly adore this blanket.” — Cy D.
A cooling towel
Promising review: “I couldn’t believe how long this stayed cool. I get hot really easily at home and need to not run my air conditioner so much $$$! This helps.” — Pepper
A reusable XL gel ice pack
A Ninja air fryer
Promising review: “This unit takes up less counter space than any of my other kitchen appliances and cleans up faster. It holds just enough for two people to share a meal with no leftovers, not to mention conveniently and quickly heating up leftover food that might go to waste because there’s not enough to bother turning on the oven. This air fryer has become my new microwave, and improves the taste and crisps the texture of foods much better than a microwave can do. Compared to other air fryers I’ve looked at, this unit is easier to use and clean, at the best price. And it doesn’t heat up the kitchen, which matters a lot during our hot Austin summers.” — Austin Shopper
A magnetic mesh cover
Promising review: “I initially bought one for my back patio and loved it. It was great for allowing air to circulate and for keeping flies out during the summer. So I ended up buying another for the front door. It’s great for pets too to act like a doggy door. The product really works and does exactly what it states. I highly recommend this product!” — Frank Zapata
