Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The Amazon Prime Day sale is less than a week away and, while the warm weather has been somewhat sporadic so far this summer, the two-day sale will be your chance to save some money on a portable air conditioner, so you’re prepared when the temperature ramps up.
This type of cooling unit can be quite a costly investment, with top models reaching up to £1,000. The price will also depend on the appliance’s British Thermal Units (BTUs) – the higher the number, the more powerful the air conditioner and the bigger the room size it can cool. So, if you can find an air conditioner at a discount, it’s well worth snapping up.
From De’Longhi to Meaco, Pro Breeze and more, the Prime Day sale could see savings on some of IndyBest’s favourite tried and tested models. With this in mind, you can rely on our team of expert deal hunters to highlight the very best savings worth having on your radar.
As well as air conditioners, we’ll also be looking out for deals on air coolers (or cooling fans), which, unlike regular fans, also help bring down the temperature in the home. We’ll be sniffing out the best portable air conditioner deals before and during the Prime Day sale. Here’s everything you need to know.

When will Amazon Prime Day portable air conditioner deals start in 2024?
Amazon has announced that its Prime Day bonanza will take place on 16 and 17 July, running for a full 48 hours. The cheapest portable air conditioners usually cost between £250 and £300, so we’ll be keeping an eye out for units that fall below that price. But any deal is a good one when it comes to ACs, they frequently sell out every summer with manufacturers struggling to keep them stocked up. There are a few well-known brands to keep an eye out for too. Meaco, Black + Decker, VonHaus, De’Longhi and EcoFlow all make extremely reliable portable air conditioning machines.
Do you need Amazon Prime to get portable air conditioner deals?
You do. Unlike the Amazon Spring Deal Days Sale earlier this year, Amazon Prime Day is an event that’s exclusive to Amazon Prime customers. An Amazon Prime membership costs £8.99 a month or £95 for a year. To sign up, just visit Amazon Prime’s landing page and enter your details.
If you haven’t been an Amazon Prime subscriber in the past 12 months, you can sign up for a 30-day free trial, so, if you time it just right, you can get in on the action before, during and after Amazon Prime Day kicks off.
