I've used FileSaver (https://github.com/eligrey/FileSaver.js) and it works just fine.
For example, I did this function to export logs displayed on a page.
You have to pass an array for the instanciation of the Blob, so I just maybe didn't write this the right way, but it works for me.
Just in case, be careful with the replace: this is the syntax to make this global, otherwise it will only replace the first one he meets.

exportLogs : function(){
    var array = new Array();

    var str = $('#logs').html();
    array[0] = str.replace(/
/g, '\n\t');

    var blob = new Blob(array, {type: "text/plain;charset=utf-8"});
    saveAs(blob, "example.log");
}
