I'd stick with an acoustic amp, so that brings it down to the 60W Fishman or 30W Roland unless the 10W THR5A floats your boat? The 10W THR10C is really an electric amp.

All good brands, so hard to go wrong with any.

Those Yamaha THRs sound incredible, and the audible output would be more than sufficient for an acoustic at home. Clearly it's the budget winner.

That said, can't see either the Roland or Fishman being disappointing if you want to spend the $$$. Both very nice choices. Battery independent functionality is a nice feature of the Roland. Not to be underestimated. I find myself using my Blackstar Fly 3 much more frequently that my others for that very reason. That, and that it's loud enough for practise at home in [u]any room[/u].

With three choices like that, unless you have a preference for the tone of one over the other, buy the one which has the features most useful to you that you will use. All of them have sufficient grunt for home use with an e-acoustic.
