The unifi ac pro's work awesome, consumer routers are kind of mickey mouse after these are deployed. Mounted them in a ceiling like a smoke alarm connected via ethernet, on the other end is an included poe injector unit or just use can use a switched hub with poe ports like ubiquiti edgerouter. The only thing I don't like is the management tool requiring java for the browser but it's pretty simple to figure out. Overall it's cheaper than these other mesh products.
If you need a router functionality, get there edgerouter but I'll tell you this, it's super powerful but not something easy to figure unless you have a deeper understanding of network protocols. Great stuff.

The management tool runs on a Tomcat webserver. That requires Java. I don't know if you need to install Java to get that working, or if Java is included in the tool itself. But you don't need the Java plugin in your browser for the tool to work. To test this, disable or remove the plugin and see if the management tool keeps working!
