Family Coaster supplied by JH Amusement — designed, welded, assembled and trial-tested in our own factory in Henan, China. Built to CE / EN 13814 standards with custom sizing, theming and LED packages available.
This roller coaster is one of the oldest family-coaster concepts but remains extremely popular. Also known as the Caterpillar Coaster, early versions featured a caterpillar-shaped front car, and after the lift and first drop, the train traveled over small hills, mimicking a caterpillar’s movement. Due to its slower motion, it is perfect for a child’s first roller coaster. The maximum speed is around 6 m/s, and after the first drop, the motion creates excitement for both children and adults. It features a classic figure-8 configuration and is lifted by a traditional chain to a maximum height of 6.40 m (with safety). All trains from our family coaster portfolio can be used, including custom front-car molds if desired. The trailer-mounted version is one of the world’s best-selling trailer models.

Price depends on capacity, size, theme and the accessory package you choose. Because we build every Family Coaster in our own factory and sell direct, there is no trading-company markup in the price. Send us your site details and target budget through the RFQ form on this page and you will receive a formal quotation in USD with FOB or CIF terms within 12 hours.
A standard Family Coaster (the standard capacity) is produced in about 25–45 days after the deposit and approved drawings. Custom-themed or oversized versions normally need 45–60 days. Sea freight to your port usually takes another 15–35 days depending on destination — we will confirm the exact schedule with the quotation.
The Family Coaster is designed and manufactured to EN 13814 / ASTM F2291 principles and ships with a CE documentation pack: declaration of conformity, technical file, risk assessment, load calculation and test reports. Our factory holds ISO 9001 / 14001 / 45001 certification, and we also prepare documents for local approval in your market when required.
Yes — roughly 70% of our orders are customized. For the Family Coaster you can change dimensions, capacity, colour scheme (any RAL code), theme and decoration (ocean, dinosaur, cartoon IP and more), music, LED layout, cabin design and logo branding. OEM / ODM production from your own drawings or ideas is also welcome — send a sketch or reference photo and our engineers will quote it.
The Family Coaster is shipped knocked down into steel structure sections and fiberglass parts, packed with waterproof film, foam protection and seaworthy steel frames. Depending on the model it fits in one or more 40HQ containers. We handle FOB, CIF and door-to-door options, and send loading photos, packing list and container numbers before departure.
Every order includes detailed installation drawings, numbered parts, a wiring diagram and a video walkthrough — many customers assemble the Family Coaster themselves with their own crew. If you prefer, we can send an engineer to site for installation, commissioning and operator training; travel cost is quoted separately. A maintenance manual and operator instructions come with each unit.
The Family Coaster carries a 12–24 month warranty on the structure and main components, with lifetime supply of spare parts at factory price. A recommended wear-parts list is provided so you can keep critical items in stock. Technical support is available by WhatsApp, email or video call for as long as you operate the ride.
There is no minimum order — one unit of the Family Coaster is fine, and you can mix several ride types in one container to reduce freight. Standard terms are 30% T/T deposit with the balance before shipment; L/C and other terms can be discussed. We will issue a proforma invoice listing every item, so there are no hidden cost surprises.
