A basic fan is a good start to keeping the air moving in your place, but in extreme cases won't do much to combat heat itself. We always try to recommend checking out a portable AC unit to keep cool during the summer, but with some of the best portable air conditioners costing upwards of $500 or more, it can be a big dent on your wallet to do so.
Trying to stick to as cheap of a budget as possible, I found the deals above to be perfect for the value. Tower fans – particularly cooling tower fans – act as a quasi-air conditioning unit that constantly keeps stagnant air moving while adding a bit of coolness to the ambient temperature. It won't be as powerful as a portable AC unit, but as a bedside or couchside option that saves both on money and energy consumption, there's no better alternative.

The Dre Evaporative Air Cooling Tower Fan, which is currently on sale for $143.99, is probably the best bang for your buck out of the four deals here. Clocking in at just under $150, it's one of the cheapest options available that delivers the best value. As an evaporative air cooler, it uses ice packs to cool the temps down even further while it's 80 degree oscillating function keeps a wide are fresh. As a bedside or couchside unit, this is by far my favorite option of the four deals I found.
If you can spare a bit more, however, the PARIS RHONE Evaporative AC/Swamp Cooler will deliver the best experience. On sale for $323.99 as an early Prime Day deal, it does run a bit higher than the other offers listed – but for good reason.
Featuring four re-usable ice packs, it combines the best of a portable AC unit with an energy usage level that's more in line with a tower fan. This means a more efficient way of cooling both indoor and outdoor areas without hiking up your electric bill.
Of course, Amazon is offering a handful of early Prime day deals on portable air conditioners that are well worth a look. From a budget perspective, however, it's hard to justify spending upwards of $600 on one when your tight on cash.
