We have the Angel Care Sound and Movement Monitor, with two sensor pads. For us it provided a bit more reassurance that we were looking for. If bubs stops breathing for 20 second or more it sets of an alarm.
It is not the cheapest monitor, but it has some great features aside from the obvious (detecting sound and breathing/movement). You can chose whether it detects either sound, sound and movement or just movement, there are number of settings for sesitivity (depending on how you are using it).
We also were able to use it with one sensor pad in the bassinet of our pram, which was DDs bed for 4-5 months, and it just came everywhere with us. Now she is in the cot we have both of the sensor pads, we also have used it the portacot.
It has a soft blue "night light" which is just enough to see what you need to see, but to disturb bubs, or enough to change a bum at night without putting on a big or bright light.
It really depends on what you are looking for, if you are not intereted in the movement component there are a lot of other monitors out there, I am just not sure which to recommend!
