Kohana: Which alternatives are available?

Question

Since Kohana seems to be very poor documented and my time is valuable, I may want to stick with something that lets me get a web platform faster up and running.

I know it forked from CodeIgniter. I actually like the idea of Kohana, but since the big hole in documentation it seems to be a bad alternative. Well, almost everyone on the Internet complains about it's bad documentation, so I believe it's bad.

So despite of CodeIgniter and Kohana itself, what else is worth looking at that makes life easy and not harder?

This is perhaps the most asked question on SO with regard to PHP.
