Opinions on the Onside Air?

Im looking for someone who has used the Onside Air to give their opinions on ease of use and likability.
I have an older blvd that expires in Nov/Dec of this year, I can't remember offhand but I know it has at least half a year left. I am considering the onside air to replace it but not sure if I would be happy with it.
We have a scenera (circa 2008, so 35# rf limit) for Grandma's car ( I install and adjust as needed) so I am familiar with that too. It's fine as a spare seat but I'm not sure I would love it for everyday. However the newer sceneras seem nicer than my several-years-old one, so I might be unfairly biased.
Is the Onside Air basically a scenera with better padding? How is the harness as far as being twisty and easy to adjust? I dislike how the scenera harness can end up loose on the left side and tight on the right (or vice versa). Can the onside air be tethered rf?
It would be installed rf in a '10 dodge grand caravan, probably in a captains chair with latch but maybe outboard third row with a seatbelt install. If it fits just like a scenera would I can search for that compatibility.
FYI this would be for ds3 who is presently 8 months, 20 lbs, 28ish inches. He is roughly 50th percentile all around, size wise. He would not need the new seat until he was about 17 months or so when the blvd expires (so still rf'ing), unless I decided to move seats around.
He's rf in a RN 65 in our other car, an '11 prius. Any chance the onside air would fit in there in a 3-across with a ff RN and a parkway SGL?
