The item pictured is black, but the one I received is an ugly turquoise color that does not go with my other office accessories.

only drawback: cant choose the color:it is random

I received an ivory color dispenser -- one solid color, not a dual color - I believe because the bottoms are all that same off-white/ivory color.

would just be nice if we could choose our own color; I would have preferred a different color.

nice bright colors

Received a black dispenser which is a very available color where I live.

I received a hot pink color.

It does say assorted colors... but shady.
