I personally have 3 production Apps built in Sails.js and I found it to be really easy to work with. Important to note that Sails allows you to swap out the ORM to whatever you like so you aren't forced down the route of using Waterline. The same goes for the templating engine etc.

If you want a real world example of Sails.js and Vue.js working together you might want to take a look at these:

Sails and Vue Paypal Workflow: medium.com/@ahmedaminehachimi/payp...

Sails and Nuxt: github.com/AngelMunoz/sails-nuxt

Sails and Vue: github.com/ndabAP/vue-sails-exampl...

I know Mike (core contributor to Sails.js) is using it with Vue in production also so feel free to get hold of him on twitter or the gitter channel if you have issues.

I find sails super simple for building out API's it's just been one of those frameworks I "get", especially after I read Sails.js In Action which is perfect for understanding all the different features.

I've heard good things about Hapi framework also and KoaJS so might be worth looking into those also.
