Unfortunately, the installer is kind of buggy. (Or was, the last time I used it.)

Then again, what installer isn't? :p

Arch has an installer. It's had one for years. It was completely broken for a long time but they released a new working version back in April. Unfortunately most people thought it was a joke since it was released on the first of April.

Funny you say that! Arch images now ship with an official installer as of a couple of months ago - which is comparable to the Ubuntu or Fedora installers in ease-of-use.
