What would you recommend as far as baby monitors go? I know you get what you pay for, so should you go out looking for the most expensive baby monitor on the market? Is there any one brand that stands out as "the best"?

I've never use a baby monitor so I'm not of much help to you. I'd say do some research before you buy.

bestbabyproducts.com has reviews of different baby products. According to them, Evenflo Monitor & Intercom sounds pretty good. It has a lot of features that some of the other monitors don't have. Here's a little about it

The Evenflo Monitor and Intercom is a highly sensitive monitor that allows you to hear your child’s every breath with only minor interference from cordless phones. It offers a variable light display that allows you to see the sounds, indicating the noise’s intensity with lights. You can monitor your child’s room without turning the volume on, a great feature when your entertaining and don’t want your company to hear your child wailing. The parent unit features a rechargeable battery that allows you to carry the receiver with you throughout the house or in the backyard without having to plug it in again and again. At night, plug the receiver into the ac adapter and it will be recharged by morning. When the receiver is out of range or the transmitter is off, the receiver unit will sound a warning beep. Perhaps the best feature of this monitor is the intercom option. If your child wakes up in the middle of the night, you can soothe him by singing a lullaby without having to leave your bed. Simply press the talk button and your child will hear you on the other end. The many features of this monitor combined with the sensitivity and lack of interference makes this a great choice that will make life a little more convenient for mom and dad.

We got the Graco Digital Deluxe iMonitor Baby Monitor as a shower gift from one of my aunts. I believe it costs somewhere around $90-$100, but even if we'd had to pay for it ourselves, I would still say it's worth it. The listening units come with chargers like cell phones, and there are two of them. We can leave one in the front room and one in our bedroom. It picks up all the baby sounds but doesn't get any kind of interference from our cordless phones, cell phones, internet connection, etc.

I cant say I suggest using any. I found with both children of mine, no matter the distance from my bedroom to theirs, I can hear them fart in their sleep.

Never really thought of a monitor as a fancy gadget. I guess technology really has come a long way. How did y'all survive without this stuff?
