Spend some quality Time with yourself or a partner is a great pastime, but they don’t call it the heat of the moment for nothing. Sex during a heat wave can be pretty miserable, so here’s what you do: find the coolest, darkest room in your house, get a large fan, point it directly at yourself (or you and your partner) and that’s it, when you start coming. That’s why we’ve compiled a list of the best sex toy deals and large, powerful tower fans so you can have a soothing cool-down time without overheating.

Tower fan deals
As a household with chronic allergies, we’ve had pretty much every generation of Dyson’s purifying fans, and this one is still one of my favorites. It doesn’t have all the advanced features you’ll find on the newer Dyson fans, but it’s a lot cheaper, produces surprisingly powerful airflow, and cleans as it cools you down.
Nothing beats a good old Vornado tower fan. Inexpensive but packs a punch, they can fill an entire room with breezy airflow to keep you cool during these unprecedented heat waves.

The Satisfyer Curvy Air Pulse Toys are among my personal favourites. They’re super soft, squishy, and really easy to hold when using one with yourself or a partner. It’s not the most powerful toy on this list – the suction power is about what I would call middle-of-the-road – which is perfect if you or your partner(s) have sensitive erogenous zones.
This is a modern classic. It’s a no-fuss air pulse stimulator, and the silicone mouth surrounds every small erogenous area while providing a tapping/sucking sensation similar to oral stimulation.
I’m a big fan of harness briefs. They are convenient to carry, you can use them to hold a variety of toys, or even use them as pocket briefs for a packer. They are also much easier to put on and take off than a traditional harness with straps and buckles.
The Lovehoney Simple Massage Wand is a wonderful addition to any sex toy collection, whether it’s their first addition or their fiftieth. It has a soft silicone outer body that’s nice and grippy but still feels good against the skin. The vibration is pretty strong, so there’s definitely an intensity setting for almost everyone here. The wide head makes it ideal for a variety of uses with a variety of erogenous zones. It’s one of my top recommendations for anyone looking to pick up a sex toy for the first time (or for the first time in a long time).
Lelo’s Hugo Anal Vibrator has been on our list of best sex tech since the very beginning, and with good reason. It’s versatile, well built and curved to hit the P-spot. However, you don’t have to have a P-point to enjoy it; It’s just a great all-around vibrating plug. It also includes a motion-controlled remote control for lots of fun playing with others.
Lelo’s Enigma is an air pulse stimulator and internal vibrator. It’s a great choice for anyone with a vulva looking for double stimulation. It’s super firm and the silicone outer shell is very smooth and picks up any water-based lube very well.
Lelo’s Sona Cruise is a cute little thing and also featured in our Best Sex Tech roundup. It’s a small sucking toy with a wide mouth, perfect for stimulating small erogenous zones. Its size makes it discreet for travel and easy to handle, and its curved body fits perfectly in your hand no matter how you hold it.
