There's also systemd-boot, which seems to be getting more popular.

That's what I'm currently using in gentoo and it's fine. Realistically there's only 1 config file to modify if I want to change kernel settings and otherwise it just works.

That said, I'm probably going to try a straight EFI boot on my next laptop.
