It's an all-in-one design that kind of looks like a space helmet. It's not *not* weird 😄 but it's less like a prop from Outbreak at least 😅 more like a prop from Interstellar 😆
We have the Air 2, which has been out of production for a while. They've been going back and forth with NIOSH to get approval for the Air 3, which is very exciting but has delayed things quite a bit. They've been saying "coming soon" on that for quite some time 😬 but my husband is in contact with their designer and it should be *actually* coming soonish, like at least this year.
Personally I find that the 3M V-flex disposable respirator is unmatched for comfort, but my mom finds her Microclimate to be much more comfortable still. There are other drawbacks, like battery life, and it's a little harder to hear, especially if you run the fan speed on the highest setting. They are also, as you mention, quite expensive.
