We're talking hammocks for napping and reading, projectors for alfresco movie night and more, all marked down to kickoff the summer in style.
Check out everything that's on sale here, and keep scrolling for some of our favorites:
AuKing Mini Projector 2021
No need to crowd into the living room — bring movie night outdoors. Take this projector to your backyard, pair it with your phone, tablet or laptop, and just hit play. Images come out crystal-clear and mega-bright, plus the bulb has a lifespan of 55,000 hours. In short? That's a lot of movies.
"Great little projector!!" one of the 8,200 five-star shoppers declared. "I’ve had it about three months and used it about 20 times. Perfect for our outdoor movies, the kids love it!! I’ve been recommending this machine to everyone in my neighborhood! So easy to use!! Picture quality is great!!"

Hiluckey Solar Charger
Nothing feels worse than running out of juice mid-hike or in the middle of a camping trip. This solar-powered charger can fuel up your phone up to 10 times or a tablet up to four times per a single charge. It's compact, too — the four solar panels can fold up and be stowed over your backpack. They're incredibly speedy — up to six times faster than competing solar chargers!
Perfect for an emergency kit. Writes one shopper:
"This turned out to be a lifesaver for me during a hurricane," said the reviewer. "I purchased this in the middle of a hurricane when I had lost power for a week. It worked so well that I purchased two more, one for my sister and the other for my parents. It does take all day to charge but once it is charged, it is able to fully charge my phone multiple times. I would have been without a phone or a way to contact my family during that hurricane if I hadn't purchased this charger."

Hamilton Beach Electric Indoor Searing Grill
Our favorite thing about summer? Grilling! And even if it's raining, you can get the yumminess you deserve. This indoor grill sears steaks, poultry, veggies and more at up to 450 degrees, leaving them deliciously juicy. An extra large drip tray captures any spillage, and it's easy to clean, too — just chuck the parts in the dishwasher.
"Great little grill that doesn't take up too much space on the countertop," a shopper shared. "Amazingly grills pork chops and hamburgers just like an outdoor grill. Non-stick surface...We use it several times a week!"

Kingso Fire Pit
Amazon's No. 1 bestselling fire pit is the perfect excuse to invite a couple of friends over. Imagine roasting marshmallows while chitchatting — it's light enough to bring on an upcoming camping trip too. It's rust and weather-proof, durable, and comes with a cover to keep sparks and debris from flying out.
"This fire pit is exactly what I have been looking for!" a shopper declared. "It will be perfect for evening fires in my backyard. I love the style of the pit, it looks elegant and unique! It was easy to assemble and holds enough wood to get a good blaze going without having an open fire, which would not be safe in my small space. I can’t wait to invite friends over for music and fires this summer!"
