MS Word works fine as the starting point. Just make sure you use styles for everything (I mean Everything!) and the conversion will work.
My workflow is to then save the document as a filtered web page, then bring it in to Sigil.
Create your stylesheet for the document, then delete all the style information in the document.
You now have a clean epub that you can convert to Kindle.
Simplified view of the process, but works very well.
