I have a couple of xt8 units. can i use an xd4 as a range extender? is it a good idea?

I have exactly this setup, two XT8s with a pair of XD4s (I left a review on the 20th of December if you want to check this - my issue is described in the review). In short, whilst this is an expensive setup, I now get a solid connection inside my garage (previously it would only connect outside of this). These units are tiny in comparison to the XT8 but seriously good in my opinion.

is this a better system than the Tenda ones?

It is impossible to answer without knowing what tenda model but, if you've read the other answer, bear in mind that Tenda has wifi6 models as well, and this (ZenWiFi AX Mini XD4) is NOT tri-band.

Is this an add on unit? I already have an Asus router but need a add on unit.

I bought a pair of these and used them to complement my XT12 router. Added them using the AI Mesh feature and they work really well.

How are the parental controls on the ax minis? read a few ppl saying it's scheduling only, no content filters, and some that say it's full control thx

The Asus router app has this option, to schedule, block content, or turn off access. I haven't used it but the option is there. If you login to the router via the Web page, it opens up all advanced options and settings that the app only has limited options. You should also check the user manual, that should show you what it can do.
