Can I use this router in the US?

It is rated 220V at 50/60Hz, so it will not run on a standard 120V outlet. You would need a step-up transformer rated above 800W.

What is the difference between the three bases?

The fixed base sets a single depth for edge and trim work. The plunge base lets you lower the bit into the work for inlays and mortises. The tilt base angles the motor for chamfers and slanted cuts.

What size bits does it take?

It comes with 1/4" (6.35 mm) and 3/8" (9.5 mm) collets, so it takes bits with those shank sizes.

Maximum depth is about 20 mm, so it is suited to shallow passes rather than deep mortises in one go.

What comes in the box?

The router, fixed, tilt and plunge bases, both collets, straight and curved edge guides, a dust extraction hood, a pair of replacement carbon brushes, a collet nut and a spanner wrench.

Our take on the SZXBWAL Compact Router 1.25HP With Fixed Base, Plunge Base and Tilt Base

The SZXBWAL Compact Router is an 800W trim router rated at 1.25HP with a variable no-load speed of 10,000 to 30,000 RPM. It ships with three bases: fixed, plunge and tilt, plus 1/4" and 3/8" collets, edge guides and a dust extraction hood. That three-base kit is unusual at this class, where most compact routers come with a fixed base alone or offer a plunge base as a separate purchase. It suits trim work, edge profiling, hinge and inlay cuts, and light plunge routing on softwoods and plywood. The 220V rating means it is built for 220-240V mains, not US 120V outlets.
