I have started using GreatNews and so far so good.  I am relatively new to using RSS readers, so I am unsure if it's missing any major features.  This app runs native and doesn't need Java or .net which is a plus for some folks.  I like the "newspaper" type view where I can see the article summaries all at once.

I used RSSOwl previously, which required Java.

Another one I came across, but have not tried, that seems pretty good is RSSBandit.  It requires .net.
