Producers often use reverb as a creative tool for sound design. Since we have the privilege of having two ears we can safely say that no one ever experienced natural reverb in Mono (except those deaf from one ear). A reverb effect recreates the way we perceive sound in an enclosed space.

If the sound you’re going to process needs to be panned center or close to it, use a stereo reverb with a reverb time shorter than one second. Use a mono reverb and pan the dry signal and the reverb return to opposite sides.

Should I record guitar in stereo or mono?.
