If you enjoy spending time outdoors, this power bank is the insurance you need to keep your devices charged off the grid. Get it while it's over 90% off — yes, 90%. This handy battery pack holds enough charge to power one device up to four times, and it can be juiced up just by sitting in sunlight. Plus, it has a built-in flashlight for emergencies. You won't want to go camping without it!

"I took this power bank to the desert for military training," said a soldier in the reviews. "I was able to charge my phone about four times and the solar power was able to replenish the power I used. Through intense heat and banging this device around, whether in my bag or in the Humvee, this thing proved to be a trooper and is still in great condition."

"I bought this portable charger to include in my hiking pack, and it has already shown its value," wrote another shopper. "I was able to charge two phones from almost dead to 100% without even losing a bar of power. I can easily see the flashlight coming in handy, as it's bright enough for most scenarios."

When it's hot out, reach for a breezy cotton dress like this one. It comes in over 20 colors and has a slit on the side to let extra air flow in. There are pockets too — always a big plus. More than 17,000 Amazon shoppers give it a glowing five-star rating.

"We are both side sleepers, and these have helped both of us have better nights of sleep. They support our necks without feeling like we are too propped up, and they offer enough give to help feel like our necks are being cradled. I'm glad I found these."

Keurig is a household name for a reason. Its machines make brewing coffee at home super easy. The K-Iced is one of the brand's most compact machines, and this one offers an iced coffee option. It automatically adjusts the brew temperature, starting hotter to help extract full flavor, then it cools down — which is important, because you want as little ice melting as possible to retain a bold flavor. Of course, if you want hot coffee, it can make that too.

"I absolutely love the iced coffee feature, and I double love the fact that they give you a Keurig iced coffee cup complete with a reusable straw, free when you buy this machine," shared one fan.
