Record temperatures have nothing on these portable ACs on sale at Amazon
July has been the hottest month on record. Ever. If you've survived without central AC up to this point but now need a cooling solution, Invest in a trusty portable AC to prevent sweat from dripping down your face all summer.
Sometimes, a simple ceiling fan won't do when it comes to lowering your body temp during an incredibly hot summer (read: summer of 2023). This is where Amazon comes in clutch. As of July 31, the mega-retailer is offering some not-to-miss deals on portable AC units for you to stay, as Demi Lovato once said, cool for the summer.
Best affordable AC deal
Why we like it
This AC from Black+Decker will provide you with powerful, cooling coverage of up to 350 square feet, without dropping over $300 for it. It can be easily moved from room to room thanks to its handles and also has a slide-out filter which you can wash. Other cool features of this AC include its accompanying remote that can flip through the various settings (such as the night mode) and an LED display on the top that reads out temperature metrics.
Best AC for large spaces deal
Why we like it
The Whynter ARC-14S AC unit is mighty and perfect for larger spaces (it works for rooms up to 500 square feet). Considering it has three modes (Cool, Dehumidify, and Fan) and 14,000 BTUs of cooling power, this AC is surprisingly quiet. Oh, and it comes with a protective storage bag for when winter comes around and those temperatures start to feel normal again. What's not to love?
