I put Monroe shocks and struts on my 09 LS about 3 years ago and they are very good, still holding up very well. I believe quick struts are the way to go, and I think most on here will agree. It really makes the job easier, and you get new springs and bearing plates too. Just remember to buy stabilizer links. You will likely have to cut the old ones off. I recommend Moog on those. Had to buy them 1/2 way through the job and ended up getting them from Auto Zone in a pinch. I replaced both of them with Moog after 3-4 months. Be sure to torque them properly or they will loosen up on you.

I went through 2 sets of Monroe shocks on my Dodge truck over the years. Replaced them last year with the KYB Mono Max. World of difference. Firmer and the truck handles better than ever.
Because of that, I believe that the KYB's are just a better product.
