I can do the same thing with some rice in a bowl, and I get to re-use the rice. Way cheaper than what that machine will cost. I have done this four times with the wife's and the daughter's phones with 100% success.

Let us hope that the phone didn't fall into the gas station toilet first when you reuse that rice for dinner.......

Not for cooking...for drying out electronics.

I will show this to my wife, who happens to be Asian, and see what she thinks about it.

Meh...I've had good luck using highly concentrated alcohol to get the water out, and then dry air to get the alcohol out.

^ This is he way to go. Highest percentage of alcohol you can find. Unfortunately the big down side of the iphone is you can't remove the battery to really flush it. Rice is nice but it doesn't get inside to remove residue.
