I have recently moved to Synology routers and will not go back. I was going to buy one of these used from ebay as a 4th endpoint but this was a better deal than what I could find on there.
While this might be "expensive" for a router, Synology's SRM makes it a no-brainer for me. Dong wrote an outstanding review for this router and is linked below. I love the fact that this can be used as a stand alone router or part of a mesh. In fact, it is backwards compatiable so that virtually every Synology router can be used with this in a mesh network!

As OP mentioned, the SRM (essentially the OS for the router) is really powerful and flexible. It may take a bit of learning but there are plenty of helpful youtube videos to watch at 1.5x speed.

Too bad for me.
But there are higher performing and cheaper alternatives (like the TP Link Deco) if using more than one unit at a time (like a mesh system).
I understand the SRM software is fairly nice, but so is Ubiquiti's.
On the hardware front, I would say a tri-band AP/router with dedicated 6ghz backhaul is a better value.
