Do you use numbers or titled chapters for your books? What have you found?

They can be as important as the often neglected blurb. They can also organize your mind and your writing. If they seem hard to do, then perhaps you don't have a handle on your intentions for the chapter, though those intentions may change, and then of course so will the title.
For the most part, I consider them imperative.
