I'm using Arch for 6 years now, I never saw it crashing. It's the most stable system I've ever seen.
To me, "arch is unstable" is more an urban legend than anything else; the best is to try. And I can compare it to everything else I used for years: Win98 (oh my), winME (such a joke), win XP (way better), win 7 (really stable), Ubuntu (I had the impress to come back to win98 each time I was doing an upgrade), Debian (quite good), macOS (quite good because they don't allow you to do anything to crash the system, not nice when you have a problem). And so on.
And it's really not that difficult to install. I've one more chapter after the sample of the book I provide, and then it's done.
