EdgeRouter X or Normal Consumer Router?

I need a new router capable of handling a 200/200 connection. I have a switch and access points, so I don't need those features in the router. The ER-X looks perfect on paper, but I'm concerned about the setup. I know very little about networking. I know it has wizards for the basic setup, but it's not clear to me whether a post-wizard ER-X is as secure as the average consumer router (eg. R7000) is out of the box.

Will the ER-X require any firewall configuration beyond the initial wizard to make it as secure as something like an R7000?
