Hamburgers? Strong Opinions Wanted

There’s a lot of debate about hamburger menus. I’ve used them quite often on my mobile sites, but lately, I’ve had some friends challenge me on this practice. What are your thoughts? Do you use them? If not, what are your solutions to navigating?

I always decide based on demographics. If the target audience is more in the millennial age group or younger, hamburger menus work fine. Go nuts and be creative. If it’s a more general market I try and use the standard menu. Some people just don’t get the hamburger thing at all yet and it can be a big UX issue. Just my two cents.
