cuisinart 8 cup coffeemaker has stopped working?

Rick - these are your options - some more sensible than others...

Diagnose the fault and either repair it yourself or have someone else do the repair - consider that its heater might have failed - do any lights come on? Have you checked the fuse? Might the puddle of water be significant?

Send it off to the manufacturer or the service agent for repair.

Invest in a new machine.

Consider switching to instant coffee - or even tea!

Stopped working is pretty much non-descriptive - try to develop a more useful trouble statement about the nature of the fault - it might help you to make progress.

Good luck...
