Solution Steps

Step 1: Understanding the Definition of Insulators

Insulators are materials that do not allow free electrons to move easily through them. This means they do not conduct electric current well.

Step 2: Analyzing the Statement

The statement claims that insulators contain free electrons that allow current to flow through the material. This is incorrect because insulators actually lack free electrons, which is why they do not conduct electricity.

Final Answer

\(\boxed{\text{False}}\)
