The day before the interview, we left home at midnight, got to the Consulate at 6:00 a.m!
Too early, so we left for coffee then came back for the appointment. Waited outside for about 15 minutes, then went it. They call for "united states citizens first please!" So we were the 2nd couple in.
We sat down, then got called up about 5 minutes later to the first Consulate worker. She was very nice, and gave us a sheet as to how to put the paperwork in order, and told us to buy stamps and then pay for the processing. (The exchange rate is crap at the Consulate; we actually paid $432 instead of $400 because of this, and I wish I had known this beforehand.)
After this, we sat down again for a while, and then got called up to go to the 2nd window. This man was also nice and friendly. He went through our paperwork, checked things off, and then said we were all set with that. Then he told us to sit down again and wait for the last process, the actual "Interview." So t... read complete review

I got all psyched up about this but it turned out to be a breeze. The consular staff was extremely friendly. I made a mistake with my military records (long story short: I didn't bring them) and the consul just told me to fax the document to them as soon as possible. Three days after I faxed it the visa was in the mail.
The processing time was also way shorter than I thought, I was in and out of the consulate within 3 hours.

It was a piece of cake! The people are really nice at the consulate. My appointment was at 07.30h. We got there around seven, had to wait a little bit, but the line wasn't too bad yet. Once we received the number at the reception, we went through security and then into another building. There we had to wait about 30 min before my number was called the first time. I had to give the lady 3 pictures of me and she gave me an envelope and told me to put my address on plus the stamps and then to wait until my number was called again.
We waited another 30 min until I was called again. At this window the lady took the rest of my documents and told me what I will have to do once I enter the US. She told me the Consul will talk to me next. So I waited another about 30 min until I was called again. The Consul was really nice and the interview took all together about 5 min. He just took my fingerprints, asked me where I met my fiance and told me to have a good trip  ... read complete review

Writing this for my fiancee, based on what she told me.
Frankfurt is really easy. She had an appointment on the 10th of June, at 8:00. She got there at 7:30 and was pretty much let right in. After the security checks, and being issued a number, she went in to the room with all of the windows. The first two windows were easy and she said the people were very nice. She was really nervous as she went to the third window for her interview with the consular official.
He basically peppered her with questions over and over again, asking her the same questions two or three times without even really bothering to listen to her responses. After he felt she was sufficiently interrogated, he said "Ok, if everything is ok with your medical, you'll get your package in the mail in 7-10 working days."
She had her medical done the week before in Hamburg, so that was no problem. She got her visa in the mail today 7 days from her interview, total, including a ... read complete review
