There are two topics that’ve been dominating my thoughts this week: Amazon Prime Day and the heat wave that’s been plaguing the East Coast. The former is definitely more pleasant than the latter: Prime Day runs through midnight. As one of the biggest sale events of the year, there are steals in every category you can think of, and we likely won’t see better prices until Black Friday. If there’s an area of home that needs a little TLC, this is your moment to get everything you need for less.

It’s good timing, because you can also score cooling products that’ll make your home more comfortable during the hot weather. Cooling sheets and mattresses, tower fans, neck fans, air conditioning units, and more are marked down, and I’ve found the best ones on sale. Don’t wait to add them to your cart — the heat isn’t going anywhere anytime soon, but Prime Day will!

Breezy cotton sheets are a game-changer when it comes to sleeping through the night, and AT’s commerce editor, Britt, swears by this underrated brand. “What caught me by surprise when I actually slept in my new luxe sateen sheets was how smooth and cool they were,” Britt said in her review of the 600-thread count version. “They’re also breathable — so I didn’t overheat — and durable, so no matter how much I tugged on them, they still look good as new.”

Another essential is a reliable AC, and you can’t do better than a Best List-winning brand. Midea’s EasyCool unit offers three modes to cool your space down, and it can cover 250 square feet quickly, circulate air with its built-in fan, and dehumidify the air. More than 5,000 shoppers bought it in the last month for a reason!

You might’ve seen Dreo’s tower fan all over TikTok, where users are remarking on how efficient it is. It has an all-in-one airflow system that’s paired with a strong motor, so it can reach almost 30 feet while it’s running. Shoppers have also been impressed by its shockingly low noise level, especially while on sleep mode.

I used this clever neck fan during my New York City move last week, and let me tell you, it totally saved me. It looks sleek enough that it could be mistaken for headphones, but don’t be fooled by its low profile design: It packs a punch. You can switch between three speeds, and it blows air on all sides of your head, keeping you comfortable all day long.

Cooling sheets are essential, but it all starts with your base — and TEMPUR-Pedic’s mattress topper will keep your body at the optimal temperature all night long.
