Whether your baby bath tub has feet depends entirely on your bathroom arrangement and your own physical comfort.

A footed bath allows parents to bathe baby without bending over, which is especially helpful in the early months for protecting your back and waist health. Bathing and draining water afterward also becomes more comfortable, and reaching for a towel is easier.

However, if you need to fold and store it away after bathing, footed models take up more space. In small bathrooms or if you'll frequently pack and store it, non-slip bath sponges or standard baby tubs used inside regular tubs might be more practical.

General pediatric practice suggests that your choice should be based on safety (non-slip base, stable position) and parental comfort. Both options work well for your baby; what matters is never leaving baby alone during bathing and keeping water temperature at 37-38°C.
