Promising review: "Unbeknownst to me, my wife decided to replace our mattress with the hardest slab of concrete on which I've ever had to sleep. I ordered this cover hoping for a tiny bit of relief. From the first night it exceeded all my hopes and dreams, I was able to sleep again, it doesn't slip off even with my tossing and turning, and it stays cool. This mattress cover probably saved my marriage. Thank you!" —michael ervin

3. Or a specifically designedset of two cooling pillowcasesmade with Japanese cooling fibers so you can finally stop having to constantly flip your pillow over to get that oh-so-wonderful chilly sensation.
Promising review: "Finally found pillows that are worth every penny!!! I am buying more ASAP! I have a sweating problem and also have my bedroom on the third floor of my home so the heat rises, which doesn’t help my hot flashes at all! I have a hard time finding a pillowcase that isn’t sticky feeling, too hot to lay on, etc. I really appreciate that there is a zipper on one end of each pillowcase to zip up your pillow to help your pillow inside from slipping or falling out! These pillowcases are cool to the touch, super soft, and they are super comfortable to lay on, to the point I woke up with drool all over my face from my remarkable amount of great sleep I had! This pillowcase doesn’t get that overwhelming warm sticky feeling after laying on it for a while. It stays comfortable to lay on all through the night! I’m incredibly happy and grateful to finally find pillowcases that are exactly what anyone with sweating issues and hot flashes need and want in pillowcases." —CosmeticatedReviews

Amazon
This stuff is STRONG so make sure you do a spot test first — especially if you have sensitive skin.
Promising review: "For anyone who might be skeptical, please allow me to put you at ease. If you have hyperhidrosis, meaning it can be 9 degrees outside and you're still sweating under your arms, this product has the potential to change your life. I would sweat THROUGH a sport coat before noon. Enter the Sweat Block product. I've had it for three weeks and it is life changing. I DO NOT sweat under my arms anymore. I'm still on the original box that I bought three weeks ago. I had to write a review after I was cleaning the garage today in 85-degree heat. I was sweating through my shirt on my back — BUT NOT MY UNDERARMS. It is amazing!" —Frosty McGee

Promising review: "Used for wetting my 2-year-old's hair. Could have used it for crafts, could have used it for misting plants, so many things. It’s super durable, I know because she dropped it a million times. You don’t need to refill it every day, it doesn’t use a lot of water in each spritz but it does feel like it. Incredibly smooth. Wouldbuyagain(and I will because I left it at my sister's while traveling)." —Savannah
Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in four sizes).

Promising review: "GO BUY THIS NOWWWWW!!!My room has been hot for over FIVE months now with no AC. Especially now withsummer, I almost feel like I want to pass out. I’m so glad I got this. It’s been two hours now since we got it in the mail and our room has completely turned around from hot to freezing cold. I can’t believe I’m saying this. I have purchased over three fans the past few months and this one tops it all." —Inca
Get it from Amazon for $79.63(also available in a smart Wi-Fi version).
7. Plus, a battery-operated flexible rotating fanthatreviewerssay has a long-lasting battery for its size and power. Its bendy legs help you secure it (or stand it up!) wherever you want and give you constant airflow while you're traveling, camping, on a road trip, or just lounging during an *extra* hot day. You can even use it as a stroller fan for your little one!
Promising review: "We live in Florida and realized how badly we needed a fan for our newborn. We use it pretty much on a daily basis. We put it on her car seat and on her stroller when we go on walks. I’ve even propped it up on our desk when I’m working and holding our daughter. The three speeds are great: low usually offers just enough of a cool down and high is very impressive because it’s fast and quiet. The lights we didn’t really need but has been a nice feature to have. Our daughter hates going in her car seat and this helps to distract her sometimes. Plus, since we live in Florida we have to wait to go on walks until later in the day and the light lets us be seen easier. Overall, it’s a great and I’d definitely recommend!" —EmLe
Get it from Amazon for $23.99 (available in three colors).
8. Aset of two cooling pillowsfor that noggin of yours because it deserves a resting place made for royalty. No more treating your pillow like a punching bag to fluff it back up in the middle of the night — many reviewers say these are cooling, supportive, and keep their shape!
Promising review: "These had great reviews but I was still a bit skeptical. I'm a bit of a pillow snob. I usually require about three pillows for just myself, not including my husband. I like to sleep propped up a bit so my sinuses don't get stopped up at night. My old pillows would require three to nine adjustments a night for me to be comfortable again. These pillows — these amazing, heavenly pillows — are now my favorite part of going to bed. Soft but firm. How does that work? It gives support for me to sleep slightly propped up but I sink into this comfortable personal cloud. Soft, but firm. My head isn't sinking through the pillow to rest on my mattress, but I feel comfortably enveloped. Now mind you, I have one very cheap Walmart pillow behind it so I'm not against my headboard, but even still. Heaven. I bought two but think that would be too much fluff so now my husband and I each have one. Buy them. Add to cart. Buy now with one click. Stop the research. You've found the pillows you were looking for." —Marissa Urey
Get a set of two from Amazon for $59.99+ (available in queen and king sizes).

My colleague Heather Braga just started using this: "I'm personallyalwayshot even with my air conditioning on full blast, so I was thrilled to put this cooling pillow to the test. Right out of the box it felt cool to the touch. It's very plush and squishy (my son really enjoyed jumping onto it haha). It seems to mold to my head — it's extremely comfortably. Most importantly it somehow STAYS that cold at all times. It really is fabulous!"

Also, the company is great to work with! Excellent customer service! When my sheets arrived, there was a small problem with the fitted sheet so I emailed them (the sheets came with a flier with their contact info) and they sent me another fitted sheet right away. They said they are a family owned business and really want the customer to have a great experience. I was impressed with that level of service especially in this day and age!Bottom line: great sheets, excellent customer service and great price! Do not hesitate to buy!" —Amazon Customer

Amazon
Promising reviews: "We have slept on these sheets for a week. My husband has nightsweats. He no longer wakes up soaking wet with these sheets.They are amazingly soft. They are so soft that my leggings get twisted with these more than my other sheets we’ve had previously...and that is good, because it’s a testament to the softness. I have a tendency to not make my bed, and our animals sleep on our blankets. They haven’t even wrinkled :) My husband says these are the best sheets he’s slept on in his life, and he grew up with a mom that always bought the expensive 'good' stuff. I highly recommend these. Bonus: Amazing price!" —Bunn Family

Sheex
Sheex is a woman-owned small business from Michelle Marciniak and Susan Walvius — former University of South Carolina basketball coaches who set out to make bedding as comfortable as their favorite performance fabrics.
Promising review: "I’m one of those who rarely reviews things, and when I received this in the mail I legitimately thought I was scammed out of $30. It looks like nothing, just your average silky eye mask. I put it on and it certainly didn’t feel like anything special. Ha, I ate those words. I don’t know what kind of black magic they’re using in the manufacturing process (especially with these supply chain issues), but I actually can’t be without it now. It fully covers my eyes in the lightest, most comfortable way, and it doesn’t feel restrictive at all. Over the long Thanksgiving weekend, there were three nights in a row that I slept 9+ HOURS !!! I mean, this is not a drill. My husband thought something was wrong with me. Bottom line, I’m getting some of the best sleep I’ve gotten since before the pandemic. Do your battle-tattered body a favor and get one of these." —Ruth
Get it from Sheex for $35 (available in four colors).

Promising review: "I wasn't certain if these would work for me or not. Since they aren't cotton, they're spandex, I thought they'd slip easily. You know what? They didn't. They not only didn't slip, but I love the colors. I love them so much I'm going to purchase the same style headbands from them but in different colors!" —Teresa T

Promising review: "So easy to set up! All you do is peel tape and adhere to a CLEAN and DRY door. Also looks great, I don't even notice it. I had a huge gap under my door. I could smell and hear everything from the hallway. Smells, drafts, and sound all are less of an issue now." —Brit Suavé
Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in four colors).

It *also* keeps cool air in your room!
Promising review: "Product works really well! I needed a quick fix to my home office situation, I live in an apartment in Manhattan and never noticed how much sound comes in and out, until I had to be on conference calls working from home! This little tape made a big difference, took me a couple of minutes to install." —Sandra Hernandez

Amazon
Promising review: "This blanket is wonderful! I was always curious to try a weighted blanket but was skeptical if they actually worked. After reading reviews, I thought I'd give it a try. I am so glad I did. I was having a hard time falling asleep and staying asleep. After receiving this blanket, my sleep has improved dramatically and I stay asleep most of the night. I like the option of having the cooling duvet and the warmer one. I am a hot sleeper so I stick with the cool one. The only downside to the blanket is changing the duvets you have to tie countless pieces together for it to stay in place but other than that this blanket is sooo worth it!!" —Emma
Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in two sizes and 10 colors).
21. A customizable window unit A/C that reviewers say actually manages to get their apartment cold... in the middle of summer! And bonus — it looks *so* much nicer than any of the other ones you've ever seen. Staying cool has never looked so ~chic~.
July
Promising review:"I can't express how much I love my July AC unit. First of all, it's the best working AC ever. My NYC apartment actually gets cold...in August! It's quiet and efficient, and I'm obsessed with the Wi-Fi capability that turns my phone into a remote. The installation was seamless, quick, and extremely pleasant. I have to say, though, that my favorite feature is the aesthetic. It's gorgeous. Who could ever say that about a window AC?? It's completely transformed my space, and I'm so thankful. Now the only problem is that I'm yearning for two more!" —Grace

We just got ours yesterday, so last night was the first time using it and we both were very impressed! I usually wake up several times in the middle of the night sweating but I didn’t wake up once! 10/10 recommended for people who have differentsleeptemps than their significant other!" —Cassie Wheeler
Get it from Amazon for $134.99+ (available in two sizes and four colors).

Promising review: "I was wary of this as it’s a bit pricey compared to other 'solutions' for being hot at night. Having said that, I don’t regret spending one penny of what it cost me.

My advice to any woman of a certain age who suffers at night with heat, or indeed anyone who is hotter at night, buy it and you won’t regret it!!" —Tracey
