For me, I prefer Sigil for most tasks but I use both Sigil and calibre's editor as I feel appropriate (some books have moved between them multiple times).

I will admit that several comments about my preferences are to the effect that they are boring. Which I am happy with as I want to read and enjoy the book and not admire the tricks we can do with layout/typography/whatever.
