Overall it was a great experience. The employees were very helpful and compassionate. We arrived at 9:30 for our 10am interview. They took our papers around 10:30, then we waited for our interview and were all finished around 11:30 am. In the interview itself, the primary questions were in regards to how we met and basic individual identification questions.

Interview was fast and easy. They only asked me how we met, what I plan to do in the US and if we know each others family. They told me I was approved that same moment and to expect to receive my visa in less than 2 weeks.
I got my visa at my home address on April 3rd.

Interview at the US embassy in Madrid was a quick and fairly simple process, in and out in 30 min. An officer first reviewed all my documents and I handed her over my medical exam, including the envelope with the X-ray, which I had picked up the day before at the clinic. Re medical exam, if you can I strongly recommend you get your vaccination story checked in Spain (already covered in the fee you have to pay in any case), as this will save you time and money when you file for AOS after marrying in the US - one of the supportive docs you need to file as part of the AOS application is evidence of compliance with the vaccination requirement. After waiting for about 5 min, a second officer carried out the interview - questions were straightforward: where and how I met my fiancé and when we got engaged and decided to apply for the k1 visa. Once the interview is over, they tell you whether your visa is approved or not. Allow approx one week for them to send you the visa. They send you a pa... read complete review

Attended my interview on 7th March 2023. I was there in total 2.5 hours. You are not allowed to bring any bags into the embassy which is important to note, if you can't help but bring a bag, you can leave your bag at the Kiosk directly across the street for 5 euros. Once you enter, your items are scanned and your electronics are taken away until you leave including your phone! If you do not have photos or the photos you brought are not to the specifications they require, they do have a photo booth where you can print appropriate photos for 5 euros.
Once you enter the room. It is a fairly small room with 15 windowed booths with chairs around the perimeter to wait. 4 of the windows are for the initial step where you must wait in line and present documents, I was asked for my birth certificate, marriage and certificate and my police certificates. Once this is done, you are given a number to be called to one of 3 windows dedicated to the actual interview. This process took a... read complete review

Writing this (paraphrased) for my wife:
All went well. Very fast process considering the amount of people there waiting. Consular staff were very friendly, and her interview was in Spanish, which was surprising to her, as she was prepared to have to use English. The worse thing about the day of the interview was the rain.
