Give AVM and their Fritz!box products a go.

FritzBox is way better than isp-provided or TP-Link-like boxes but certainly not pro-anything (no vlans or ingress-qos, guest-wifi but no real multi-ssid, severely limited dns-customization ...)
fritzboxes are everything but certainly no "prosumer"-type devices. Most of their "mesh" is still dual band. only the latest repeater "FRITZ!Repeater 3000" is tri-band and afaik there is no router yet available that supports tri-band.
Compared to ordinary consumer products, I'll keep listing them as prosumer. They aren't mikrotik, or barebones openwrt, rather like dd-wrt.
The hardware is indeed a bit lagging, I'm not arguing there, but it's not always (only) the hardware that makes prosumer.
avm is like the apple of home-networking.
hardware stats and software features are severely behind the curve but it mostly just works and you dont really need those features anyway.
certainly not prosumer
