Kona Roadhouse as a gravel bike?

When researching for the gravel bike I came acrosss a Kona Roadhouse. It looks like Specialized Diverge, only made of steel. Both bikes can take up to 35c tire (which is limiting for sure) but other than that this Roadhouse looks very interesting. And it is not that expensive... What do You think?

If you ride a mix of road and gravel, and your gravel is pretty tame, and you don't see yourself riding singletrack on this bike, it is a good choice.

Otherwise, I like the Rove steel better.  Cheaper, so you can upgrade stuff (think wheels). Clearance for bigger tires.  Gravel geo.
