I think we only need it on the carpeted floors and just swiffer the hard floors.

IMO it's the other way around. Robot vacuums will make hard floors (especially wood) look way better than if you regularly Swiffer it. It's not even close. It pulls of micro dust that you didn't realize you could see and makes it look like someone sorta polished the floor. Heck, you can even feel the stuff on a hard floor with your feet. Micro dust can easily blend into the carpet and you wouldn't really notice it.
TBH, I barely notice the results of using the robot on carpet other than the fact the robot has gigantic clods of hair wrapped around the spinners after it is done.
If you could only get one robot, I would suggest for the hard floor rather than carpet. But technically, you can also just pick up your robot, take it upstairs/downstairs as needed rather than get two.

This is the one I have. It cannot track worth #### and is kinda an idiot in an endearing way. I do find a noticeable difference using high suction vs regular suction mode.
For carpet and stairs, I would go with a stick vacuum instead of a robot and just do like 2-5 minute touch ups as needed. For around less than $200, something like this is pretty awesome for touch ups. It's also excellent in bathrooms for hair, dust etc. Then again, it's also great in the car.
