The Wayfair 4th of July Sale You've Been Waiting for Is Here—and These 10 Home and Patio Deals Are Totally Worth Celebrating

You can search through as many outdoor umbrellas as you want, but let me be very clear, *nothing* will compare to this sun blocker. Just take a quick scroll through its 12,000 reviews, and you'll understand why. To put it in a nutshell, this weather-resistant umbrella fits in most standard bases and has all the bells and whistles you want and need for days out on the patio, from a tilt function for precise shading to a crank lift to easily pull it up and down. And as far as sun blocking goes, it's got you and your guests covered within a 10-foot diameter.

If you ask social media, you haven't grilled until you've cooked smash burgers and scrambled eggs on a Blackstone griddle grill. Boasting 524 square inches of cooking space and 34,000 BTUs of power, it's safe to say this grill is designed to perfection. Plus, this bad boy has *two* H-shaped burners with independently controlled cooking zones, per the brand. This means you can cook different foods on the 28-inch griddle at the same time (say, pancakes on the left and bacon on the right), with plenty of room to prevent overlap. But here's why one review doesn't regret buying it: "Let me start off by saying, my husband didn't want this...It was easy to assemble by myself. You can cook breakfast, burgers, stir fry, steak, etc. I got THE BEST SEAR ever the first time I used this. As for my husband, he uses it three to four times a week! He also admitted that he really likes it."

What's the tea on this outdoor setup that everyone wants to buy this summer? It comes with two chairs, two ottomans, one table and six incredibly cozy cushions for under $400, plus it can fit up to four people. But, if you, like me, imagine spending your afternoons laid out across it with a book in hand and a glass of wine propped on the table, you can do that, too. The beauty of this set is that you can arrange it however you want—transform it into one oversized daybed, two chaise loungers or spread out all the pieces across your backyard if you need extra seating for a party. Furthermore, each piece has a rattan wicker weave exterior that holds up nicely in all weather conditions per buyers, from heat waves to snow. Oh, and the cushion covers are removable and washable, so you can keep them looking brand new all summer and beyond.

Brace yourself: This mid-century modern beauty has a *real* pecan wood frame and legs, plus some really nice cushioning with foam and springs, so you can bet it feels as good as it looks. And while its upholstery looks like linen, it's actually a more durable polyester, so it should come as no shock that this accent chair is selling fast. And did I mention it also has a good weight capacity (up to 300 pounds) and comes with all the assembly tools needed to put it together—and show it off—in no time? Yep, it's that good! 

Fact: A rug can elevate your home in the blink of an eye. Don't believe me? You will once you get your hands on this beautiful bohemian pick. Why this one specifically, though? For starters, as one reviewer shares, "This rug is so pretty. I love [that] the colors are sharp, yet muted to give the boho vibe I was going for. [It] looks nice with my leather furniture." But that's not all—it's also easy to clean. "Dog hair lifts off easily when vacuumed," that buyer adds. It's available in various sizes for the kitchen, bedroom, hallway and living room, starting at just $24. But will it shuffle around easily? The chances of that are very slim, thanks to extra cushioning that should help it stay in place, even in high-traffic areas.

Whether or not you actually need to upgrade your bedding right now, it would be wise to grab this best-selling sheet set while it's on sale for under $30. Not just because it has more than 2,000 5-star reviews (and counting) but also because it includes up to two pillowcases, a fitted sheet *and* a flat sheet (aka everything you need to make up your bed). The pieces are made of a gorgeous chevron-printed microfiber material that buyers say is "buttery soft" to the touch and breathable to boot, so you can snooze through warmer weather like a pro. Better yet, the fitted sheet has a generous cut to allow for effortless fitting over your mattress, even if you've got an extra-deep model. In other words, it'll be hard not to feel right at home in them all year long.

A little birdie told me your backyard is missing a classic Adirondack chair, so don't miss the markdown on this super sleek and functional version, designed to last for years of outdoor lounging. Unlike other options you'll come across during this sale, this chair is oversized (with a seating width of up to 22 inches), so it should feel more comfortable. It also has a 3.5-inch cup holder to boot, which solves the problem of "where can I put my drink?" Not to mention, the brand shares, "Each plastic plate can withstand 450 pounds heavy-duty strength, [and you] don't [have to] worry about [it] being blown away by the wind." What more can you ask for besides how good it looks in every color? No, seriously, take a peek through reviewers' photos, and prepare to add this baby to your cart!

A more compact version of the editor-favorite Cuisinart air fryer toaster oven (it's 11.5 inches tall and 15.5 inches wide, to be exact), this smaller device still does an excellent job of slashing your cooking time thanks to its six functions that allow you to effortlessly bake, air fry, broil, warm, toast and even make pizza. The handy appliance is also energy efficient (shout-out to its automatic shut-off function) and equipped with a timer, so you won't have to babysit your food as it cooks. Ahem, that means you can spend even less time in the kitchen this summer!

Personally, I consider string lights a year-round essential. That's because they never fail to create the most festive al fresco ambiance at events, from summer barbecues to holiday soirees. And since you can really never have enough, it wouldn't be a bad idea to grab this *dimmable* and weatherproof set featuring 15 bulbs to light up your backyard in the most magical way possible this summer. The entire cord is approximately 48 feet long, so if you want to hang it across your patio or above your whole backyard, stock up. And did I mention these lights are wedding reception-approved? Yep, they're a *must.*
