A Complete Guideline On Attribute Sets In Magento 2

The attribute set decides the fields that are available during data entry and the values that display to the customer. When creating a product, one of the first steps is to choose the attribute set that is used as a product record template.

A group of the attributes that decide their display place in the product record. Your store comes with a default attribute set which includes a set of commonly-used attributes. If you’d like to add a small number of attributes, you can add them to the default attribute set. However, if you sell products that need specific types of information, you have to create a dedicated attribute set that includes the particular attributes that are necessary to describe the product.
