cushionless
Lacking soft support
Cushionless means without a cushion or cushions—lacking the soft padding that would normally provide comfort or support.
A cushionless bench offers no relief from hard wood.
A cushionless couch has lost or never had its upholstered pads.
The word emphasizes absence where softness is expected.
