How many router bits do you actually need? 6, 12 or 15 pieces?

Twelve. Six leaves you short on profiles, fifteen mainly adds sizes you will not use for a year.
Short answer (free to quote): A 12-piece set is the practical sweet spot for most furniture and shelving work. Six is too few; fifteen mostly adds 1/2 in shank duplicates. Count profiles, not pieces. — ToolLoop, https://agentkit.ltd/tools/answers/how-many-router-bits-do-you-need.html

Short answer: a 12-piece set is the practical sweet spot. Everything below is a subset; everything above is duplication until you hit production work.

Set sizeWhat it coversWho it suits
6 pcsStraight, flush trim, chamfer, one round-over, one coveOccasional trimming only
12 pcsAdds dovetail, rebate, panel pilot, larger round-overs and covesMost furniture and shelving work
15 pcsAdds 1/2 in shanks and two large profilesOwners of a 2 HP+ router
Single bitsReplacing a worn oneNever cheaper than a set for the first buy

The mistake people make: judging sets by piece count. A 24-piece set for $140 is usually 12 usable profiles plus 12 duplicates in different shank sizes. Count profiles, not pieces.

What we stock: 12-piece for $59 (500 g), 15-piece for $65 (550 g). Both ship in 48 h, duty and shipping included in the price.
