We do. We use Sigil to finish ePUBs, which means that something like 4500+ eBooks have been through Sigil at my shop. Tex, too--he finishes in Sigil and uses it extensively. He has a whackload under his belt, too. As does Turtle, Wombat and the entire gang of miscreants here. :-D

What's a "well-formatted Word document"? LOL. I have ONE inhouse right now. ONE. With at least 80 books in live/active production. For us, typically, 50-60% are from PDF/INDD; the rest are from various other file types, most Word, but OO, LO, Pages, Bob's Big Word Processor and so forth.
I
honestly don't remember the last time I saw a document with paragraph styles. I have that one, right now, that used heading styles; OTOH, I have another in which each and every paragraph displays on the Nav Pane, because the formatter (?) or typist created a body paragraph style identified as "Level 1." (sigh).
