[HELP] Should I use an ORM (Sequelize, Bookshelf) for my Node backend or should I stick to raw SQL queries?

I'm about to start a new enterprise level project with Node.js as the backend and Hapi as the framework. Coming from a Nosql background, I really not sure if I'll need an ORM for my project or not. ORMs look really tempting as they provide tonnes of features out of the box which really seem to ease my SQL learning curve. But I've been told by a lot of people to stay away from it due to fact that Node doesn't really have a mature ORM similar to what Ruby on Rails or Python/DJango has to offer.
